Guidelines for Monitoring and Management of Pediatric Patients During and After Sedation for Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedures: An Update. Pediatrics 2006; 118:2587-2601. Updated guidelines published by the AAP and the AAPD provide updated information and guidance for the safe delivery of sedation and analgesic agents to children.
