AB Continuous  monitoring  of  oxygen  saturation  and  heart  rate  will  identify  the  most  common  serious  risk  of  sedation,  hypoxia.Avoid  ketamine  in  infants  younger  than  3  months  due  to  the  risk  of  airway  complications.Pressure  applied  to  the  “laryngospasm  notch”  may  reverse  laryngospasm.Emergence  reactions  associated  with  ketamine  appear  to  be  related  to  the  pretreatment  anxiety  level  of  the  patient.Etomidate  as  a  sedative  is  associated  with  few  airway  events,  and  can  be  used  in  the  hypotensive  patient.Combinations  of  drugs  may  increase  adverse  effects  of  each,  such  as  respiratory  depression.
