Procedural Sedation

A procedure is something done to figure out what is happening inside your body or to help your body get better. Sedation is a special medicine your care team uses to put you into a special sleep where you won't see, hear, or feel anything. Procedural Sedation is when your care team uses "sleepy medicine" before -- and during -- your procedure.
