Over the last few years, we’ve witnessed an increase in the number of radiology procedures performed under sedation. But we have also seen an increase in the amount of comorbidities patients are presenting with for these procedures. Non-anaeshetist sedationists are faced with a need to develop sedation related skills to keep these patients safe, but also to implement safe sedation policies in their departments. In this episode, RN Andreia Trigo and Dr Martin Lees talk about creating change in sedation practice in the radiology department.
