This extensive guide to sedation is well written and very through. There are chapters on oral sedation, N2O sedation, and emergency medicine.I found it very informative.

This is a very good book for the clinician who wants to gain an understanding of proper patient management for the sedated patient, rescue breathing for the over-sedated, and how to properly monitor your sedated patient. This is not the book for a person who wants to do just conscious sedation though. It does review conscious sedation, but not very thoroughly. I recommend this book to anyone wishing to increase their understanding of how to manage your patient during sedation as a whole.M.G.

I just completed the dental anesthesia course at dental school and this is the book our class used. I found the book to be very helpful for more than just sedation and I do recommend it. I will be a good reference book for my collection.

Information packed! Perfect blend of clinical tips and historical background. Best if used in conjunction with the Oregon AGD IV Sed course.

Very thorough, comprehensive, well organized. A great reference for anyone doing sedation. A must to have on your shelf at your office.

Needed this for professional course. Good book.

excellent book, well documented and didactic
