Abstract
Particularly in tertiary care centres, there is an increased need for diagnostic procedures,
such as CT scans, magnetic resonance, endoscopies, lumbar punctures, biopsies, etc., which
require different degrees of anesthesia and/or sedation of the child to ensure safety and
performance and to avoid unnecessary pain and discomfort. The limited availability of
anestesiologists often represents a problem, leading to unnecessary waiting time. For this
reason paediatricians and nurses with specific training in intensive care are increasingly
involved in providing sedation for diagnostic procedures. Safety concerns have been voiced
and discussed about the use of a variety of drugs and procedures. The Authors report
their one-year experience in a tertiary care paediatric hospital regarding in-ward sedation
for non invasive (such as diagnostic imaging) or moderately invasive (such as endoscopies
and biopsies) procedures. Propofol was used for moderately invasive procedures. A small
task force (2 paediatrician and 2 nurses) was established to ensure continuity and good
performance. The experience has been satisfactory in terms of efficacy, safety and cost and
has been positively evaluated by both patients and health professionals.
