Answer to Question 1

A, B, C, D
Patient risks during IV sedation include hypoventilation, airway compromise, hemodynamic instability, and/or altered levels of consciousness that include an overly depressed level of consciousness or agitation and combativeness. Emergency equipment appropriate for the patient's age and size and staff with skill in airway management, oxygen delivery, and use of resuscitation equipment are essential. During and after the procedure, patients need continuous monitoring of vital signs, oxygen saturation, heart rhythm, lung sounds, and level of consciousness.
