Oral Sedation Dentistry RegulationsNew York State Board for Dentistry Rule 61.10 (c)(iii)(a)(2)(ii) requires a dentist to complete at least 18 hours of university-based didactic training with 20 clinical patient experiences, and obtain a permit before administering Oral Conscious Sedation to their adult patients.* * When the intent is Anxiolysis only, a permit is not required.
Dental Enteral Conscious Sedation certificate authorizes a licensed dentist to employ conscious sedation (enteral route only with or without inhalation agents).You must present evidence of completion of either:pre-doctoral or post-doctoral education consisting of a specialty program or residency accredited by an acceptable accrediting body which includes coursework in Basic Life Support and additional coursework consisting of at least 18 clock hours, including but not limited to, instruction in nitrous oxide use and emergency management. In addition to the coursework, you must complete 20 clinically-oriented experiences in the use of enteral conscious sedation techniques. These clinically-oriented experiences may include group observations of patients undergoing enteral conscious sedation techniques; orpost-doctoral coursework approved by the Department which has equivalent rigor as coursework approved by an acceptable accrediting body and which includes coursework in Basic Life Support and additional coursework consisting of at least 18 clock hours, including but not limited to, instruction in nitrous oxide use and emergency management. In addition to the coursework, the program must require 20 clinically-oriented experiences in the use of enteral conscious sedation techniques. These clinically-oriented experiences may include group observations of patients undergoing enteral conscious sedation techniques.permit.
NY Regulations
NYU's 22-hour Enteral Sedation at NYU
course is approved by the New York State Board for Dentistry as meeting the 18-hour university-based didactic training requirement for the NY enteral sedation permit.
NY Regulations
Conscious sedation means a minimally depressed level of consciousness that retains the patient's ability to independently and continuously maintain an airway and respond appropriately to physical stimulation and verbal command and that is produced by a pharmacologic or nonpharmacologic method or a combination thereof. Patients whose only response is reflex withdrawal from repeated painful stimuli shall not be considered to be in a state of conscious sedation.

ASA
ASA PS 1 A normal healthy patient ASA PS 2 A patient with mild systemic disease ASA PS 3 A patient with severe systemic disease ASA PS 4 A patient with severe systemic disease that is a constant
threat to life
Implications?
The value of ASA classification, perioperative risk, (especially postoperative morbidity), analyzed using data of 2937 patients. Account for validity, reliability, and sensitivity. Differences between the ASA classes were confirmed (p-value < 0.05) considering separate kinds of complications and different periods. Furthermore, ASA classification was a valuable reference to length of stay and severity of necessary therapy at the ICU.
Goals of Sedation
Provide age-appropriate care to all patients by ensuring that the clinical providers have the appropriate clinical competencies.
Achieve adequate sedation with minimal risk. Minimize discomfort and pain. Minimize negative psychological responses by providing adequate sedation, analgesia and amnesia. Decrease agitation and improve cooperation during a procedure. Provide for rapid recovery and safe discharge. Facilitate Improved technical performance of the procedure.

Medications Specific
Versed Demerol Phenergan Hydroxyzine Chloral Hydrate Halcion
Versed
Depresses all levels of CNS T max is 0.17 to 2.65 h Approximately 97% is protein bound (mainly to albumin) Midazolam is subject to substantial intestinal and hepatic first-pass metabolism by CYP-450 3A4. Active metabolite is alpha-hydroxymidazolam Onset is 10 to 20 min Hepatic Function Impairment: Following oral administration (15 mg), C max and bioavailability were 43% and 100% higher, respectively. Cl was reduced 40% and t increased 90%. Doses should be titrated. CHF: Following oral administration (7.5mg), t increased 43%
Demerol (Meperidine)
Meperidine protein binding is high Opioid Analgesic t is 3to4 h 10 to 45 min The times to peak effect are 3 to 50min Children (IM/Subcutaneous), 60 to 90 min (oral), and 5 to
7min (IV)
ChildrenIM/Subcutaneous/PO 1 to 1.8 mg/kg Potentially fatal reactions can occur if meperidine is used in
patients within 14 days of receiving MAOI
Phergan
Promethazine is a phenothiazine derivative Promethazine is an H1 receptor blocking agent. In addition to its antihistaminic action, it provides clinically useful sedative and antiemetic effects Promethazine is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Clinical effects are apparent within 20 minutes after oral administration and generally last four to six hours, although they may persist as long as 12 hours Promethazine is metabolized by the liver to a variety of compounds
Hydroxyzine
Atarax is not a cortical depressant, ?subcortical area. Primary skeletal muscle relaxation has been demonstrated.
Chloral Hydrate
Halcion(triazolam)
Triazolam is a hypnotic with a short mean plasma half-life reported to be in the range of 1.5 to 5.5 hours. In normal subjects treated for 7 days with four times the recommended dosage, there was no evidence of altered systemic bioavailability, rate of elimination, or accumulation. Peak plasma levels are reached within 2 hours following oral administration CYP 3A - metabolism Coadministration of erythromycin increased the maximum plasma concentration of triazolam by 46%, decreased clearance by 53%, and increased half-life by 35% Coadministration of cimetidine increased the maximum plasma concentration of triazolam by 51%, decreased clearance by 55%, and increased half-life by 68%

Informed Consent
There are 4 components of informed consent: You must have the capacity (or ability) to make the decision. The medical provider must disclose information on the treatment, test, or procedure in question, including the expected benefits and risks, and the likelihood (or probability) that the benefits and risks will occur. You must comprehend the relevant information. You must voluntarily grant consent, without coercion or duress.

Delayed Gastric Emptying
Disorders of gastric motility, pyloric obstruction, gastroesophageal reflux and diabetic gastroparesis delay gastric emptying. Indigestible solids are the first to be affected, followed by digestible solids and finally liquids. Because the rate of gastric emptying of clear fluids is not affected until these conditions are far advanced, most patients may still be allowed to drink on the morning of surgery. Different investigators have found obese patients to have either a larger[16] or smaller[17] residual fasting gastric fluid volume than non-obese patients. These comments only apply to patients scheduled for elective surgery. All emergency cases, especially those involving trauma and women in labour, should always be assumed to have delayed gastric emptying.
NPO
Gastric emptying is normal in all three trimesters of pregnancy and beyond 18 hours post-partum, but is delayed in the first 2 hours post-partum.[18] Labour causes an unpredictable delay in gastric emptying that is markedly potentiated by opioids.[19] Nevertheless, there is a move towards less rigid fasting guidelines during labour, especially in women who are not expected to require operative intervention.
NPO
Conclusion
The order 'nothing by mouth after midnight' should apply only to solids for patients scheduled for surgery in the morning. An early light breakfast of easily digested toast or similar food with clear liquid is permissible for afternoon cases. Clear liquids should be allowed until 3 hours before the scheduled time of surgery so that a change in the surgical schedule can be made and still allows 2 hours before the actual time of surgery. For patients with true gastroesophageal reflux, whether or not they drink, an H2-receptor blocker (ranitidine) or proton pump inhibitor (omeprazole) may be advisable to minimize gastric acid secretion.
NPO
Summary
Fasting times apply to all ages Clear = water, fruit juice without pulp, black coffee Light Meal = dry toast, clear liquid. Fatty foods may prolong gastric emptying No routine use of GI stimulants, acid secretion blockers or oral antacids
