Introduction
• Children are often brought to medical attention
due to painful conditions or they require
diagnostic or therapeutic procedures which are
painful or produce anxiety.
• A child’s pain is felt not only by the child but
also by the parents.
• Presence and severity of pain in infants and
children is underestimated by H.C. providers.
History of Inadequate Treatment
• “Brutane”, until recently, was the analgesic
and sedative most often used:
– total immobilization by several adults and a
papoose via brute strength.
Paris PM. Amer J Emerg Med 1989
Reasons For Inadequate
Analgesia/Sedation
•
•
•
•
No ideal sedative.
Fear of side effects.
Fear of addiction.
Inadequate training.
Analgesia
• Patient experiences relief from pain without
sedation.
Non Pharmacological
Intervention
• Child Life Programs:
– Pre-procedural teaching and support.
– Guided Imagery.
– Distraction. (Bubbles, Music, Books)
Such programs:
• Relieve stress and anxiety associated with an
E.D. visit.
• Decrease upset behavior.
• Decrease medication requirement.
• Improve staff efficiency.
• Improve patient/parent satisfaction.
Local Anesthesia
• One of the most basic aspects of
pain control.
Local Anesthetics
•
•
•
•
Lidocaine
TAC
LET
EMLA
Lidocaine
• Available forms:
– Viscous (2% & 4%) - Aerosol (1% spray)
– Gel (2%)
– Solution
• 0.5% (0.5mg/ml)
• 1% (10mg/ml)
• 2% (20mg/ml)
– Max. dose 5mg/kg
– Mixed w/ epinephrine provides vasoconstriction,
delayed absorption, decreased lidocaine toxicity.
– Mixed w/ NA bicarb. (9:1) Increases ph, decreases
burning sensation.

Conscious Sedation
Definition
• A medically controlled state of depressed
consciousness that allows patients to
maintain:
– protective reflexes
– patent airway independently
– appropriate response to verbal and physical
stimuli
Goals of Sedation
•
•
•
•
•
Guard patient safety.
Minimize pain of procedure.
Minimize fear and anxiety.
Control behavior.
Provide amnesia.
Indications
• Painful or anxiety producing procedures.
• Benefits outweigh the risks.

KFSH Conscious Sedation Policy
• There must be a documented evaluation of
the patient’s anesthetic risk prior to
administration of conscious sedation using
the ASA rating.

– If infant can sit up unattended.
– Children can walk unattended.
• Return to baseline mental status.
• Patient or responsible person with patient can

Discharge Instructions
Your child has been given some type of sedative
or pain medication as part of his or her ED visit
today. Medications of this type can cause the
child to be sleepy, less aware, not think clearly,
or more likely to stumble or fall. Because of
this he or she should be watched closely for the
next eight hours. In addition, please observe
the following precautions:
• No eating or drinking for the next two hours. If
your child is an infant he or she may be fed half a
normal feeding one hour after discharge.
• No play that requires normal childhood
coordination, such as bike riding, skating, or use of
swing sets or monkey bars for the next 24 hours.
• No playing without adult supervision for the next
eight hours. This is especially important with
children who normally are allowed to play outside
alone.
• No bath, showers, cooking, or using possibly
dangerous electrical devices such as curling irons
without adult supervision for the next eight hours.
If you notice anything unusual about your child
or have any questions, please call the ED
immediately.
“Pearls”
•
•
•
•
•
•
Be familiar with a few techniques.
Be open to new ideas.
Use appropriate agent(s) for the situation.
Don’t forget the pain of minor medical conditions.
Incremental titration of dose to desired effect.
Flavorings for oral, sublingual, and nasal
preparations.
• Don’t forget high risk patients.
• Therapeutic dose is one that accomplishes the
therapeutic goal.
“Few things a doctor does are more
important than relieving pain. Pain is soul
destroying…the quality of mercy is
essential to the practice of medicine; here
of all places it should not be strained.”
Angell M. Nejm, 1982
