Pharmacological methods and research issues in the management of the adult patient.
Much information about anesthetic/sedative safety is not currently available. Although some information about mortality and its presumed cause has been published, it is based upon retrospective surveys. Even less information is available about morbidity of popular drug combinations used in an outpatient dental setting. Although a number of papers have reported complications from popular intravenous sedative/anesthetic drugs, no large-scale, reliable, prospective data is available to determine the safety of certain drugs, combinations of drugs, or specific types of sedative/anesthetic techniques.
