  11. 6. Monitoring requirements The decision to monitor the cardiac rhythm is based on: Clinical indicators, history of significant cardiac disease, likelihood that procedure might result in rhythm changes, physician’s discretion.

  12. Exhibiting signs of deep sedation, purposeful response only to repeated or painful stimuli Rass score of –4 or –5 O2 Sat <92% during or > 30 min after last dose of medication BP increase or decrease by 20% from baseline Arrhythmias Apnea Any change in respiratory or circulatory parameter Abnormal assessment findings and when to notify a LIP When patient is:

  13. Combination of sedatives and analgesics increase the risk of respiratory depression and apnea Medications should be administered: one at a time in incremental doses with sufficient time to evaluate (generally over 2 minutes and wait 2-5 minutes to evaluate) Titrate narcotics to obtain pain relief and sedatives to decrease anxiety General principles in administration of Sedatives & Analgesics

  14. 8a. Age Specific Considerations for medication • Medication dosage by weight • Preferred routes PO or IV • Knowledge of age specific vital sign normals/abnormals is essential • Oxygen desaturation occurs faster • Faster drug clearance due to increased renal/hepatic blood flow • Increased body fat therefore increased storage • Increased susceptibility to airway obstruction. • (S/S of respiratory distress includes cyanosis, grunting, retractions, • and nasal flaring.) • Available airway equipment must be appropriate size • Sniff position for infants • Increased sensitivity to medications, adjust dosage appropriately • Lessoxygen reserve • Decreaseddrugmetabolism from decreased renal and hepatic flow • Slowercirculationtime of medications • Decreasedmuscle tone (stiff neck) • Increased musculoskeletal disorders

  15. Diminished drug clearance 8b. Disease Considerations for medication • Poor venous access • Inaccurate blood pressure • Hypertension • Difficult airway management • Respiratory insufficiency, diaphragm pushed up by abdomen • Positioning difficulties • Storage of medication in adipose tissue • Co-morbidity: diabetes resulting in circulatory disorders

  16. 8c. Usual dosage for medication • Initial doses IV over 2 minutes unless indicated Benzodiazepines Narcotics Other Refer to policy for repeat doses and other vital information

  17. 8d. Considerations & precautions for meds ConsiderationsPrecautions • Major side effects and respiratory depression hypotension (averted if drug administered slowly) • Lorazepam injection must be diluted with = amount of diluent before IV use • Reduce dosage if used with narcotics • Reversal agent is flumazenil • Lorazepam may have longer onset of action up to 10 minutes Benzodiazepines • Will potentiate effects of benodiazepines • May need increased dose of naloxone to reverse CNS/resp. effects of fentanyl • Caution use in patients with asthma and/or COPD Narcotics

  18. 8d. Considerations & precautions for meds (continued) ConsiderationsPrecautions • Contraindicated in patients with elevated intracranial pressure, uncontrolled hypertension, aneurysms, thyrotoxicosis, CHF, angina • Caution in patients with coronary artery disease, tachycardia • Observe for sedation for a minimum of one to two hours • Monitor blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate. • Close cardiac monitoring for patients with history of hypotension or cardiac decompensation Ketamine

  19. ONLY for ED and ICU use 8c. Usually dosage for medications specific to the ED and ICU • Initial doses IV Refer to policy for repeat doses and other vital information 9. RN administration MUST be under direct supervision of credentialed physician and RT or 2nd physician not involved in the procedure. MUST be monitoring airway.

  20. ONLY for ED and ICU use 8d. Considerations & precautions for medications specific to the ED & ICU ConsiderationsPrecautions • RN administration restricted to ED and ICU • Monitor blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate • Caution in patients with serious asthma, hypotension, myoclonus, and nausea/vomiting Etomidate

  21. Propofol is used in the GI Lab as well as the ED and ICU 8c. Usually dosage for medications specific to the ED, ICU and GI Lab • Initial doses IV Refer to policy for repeat doses and other vital information MUST be administered only by an anesthesiologist.

  22. 10. Identify appropriate interventions if pt. progresses to deep sedation 11. Describe REVERSAL agents, their actions and criteria for use • Initial doses IV over 15 seconds Benzodiazepine Antagonist Narcotic Antagonist Refer to policy for repeat doses and other vital information

  23. 10. Identify appropriate interventions if pt. progresses to deep sedation11. Describe REVERSAL agents, their actions and criteria for use ConsiderationsPrecautions • Caution in patients addicted to benzodiazepines • Caution in patients with history of seizures • Caution in patients with history of panic attacks • Observe for re-sedation for a minimum of one to two hours FLUMZAENIL Benzodiazepine Antagonist • Caution use in patients addicted to narcotics • May need higher doses with fentanyl • May not reverse cardiovascular effects of narcotics • Naloxone associated non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema has been reported throughout dose range • Observe for re-narcotization for a minimum of one to two hours • Titrate to avoid excessive reduction in analgesia Narcotic Antagonist NALOXONE
