WHAT IS SEDATION ?
Sedation is a medical technique used to induce a state of relaxation, calmness, and decreased awareness or responsiveness in a patient. Its primary purpose in medical practice is to help patients feel more comfortable, reduce anxiety, alleviate pain, and facilitate various medical procedures or treatments. Sedation is typically administered by trained healthcare professionals and can vary in intensity from mild sedation to deep sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the specific medical context and the patient's needs.
