Newbie, go back to school. I am in your ignore list dumbass. As if newbies are entitled to have an ignore list.
Sedation scales are used in [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medicine"]medical[/ame] situations in conjunction with a medical history in assessing the applicable degree of sedation in patients in order to avoid under-sedation (the patient risks experiencing pain or distress) and over-sedation (the patient risks side effects such as suppression of breathing, which might lead to death). Typically, levels are (i) agitation, (ii) calm, (iii) responsive to voice only, (iv) responsive to tactile stimulation, (v) responsive to painful stimulation only, and (vi) unresponsive to painful stimulation. Examples of sedation scales include: MSAT (Minnesota Sedation Assessment Tool), UMSS (University of Michigan Sedation Scale), the Ramsay Scale (Ramsay, et al. 1974) and the RASS (Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale). The [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Society_of_Anesthesiologists"]American Society of Anesthesiologists[/ame] defines the continuum of sedation as follows:[2] Minimal Sedation - Normal response to verbal stimuli. Moderate Sedation - Purposeful response to verbal/tactile stimulation. (This is usually referred to as "conscious sedation") Deep Sedation - Purposeful response to repeated or painful stimulation. General Anesthesia - Unarousable even with painful stimulus. In the United Kingdom, deep sedation is considered to be a part of the spectrum of general anesthesia, as opposed to conscious sedation.
Your command of the English language sucks. Work on that. Did you really extrapolate from this sentence that he was at all referring to sleep? lol
A good example of self-ownage. atsch Bottom line, does it really matter that much? I think this peds issue is being blown way out of proportion. Sure it may be rampant in the sports. But it doesn't turn a cab driver into a world champion. Loading gloves is a lot worse than peds.
Again you are talking out of your ass. Levels of consciousness/sedation involves evoking responses throught different degree of stimulation. Deep sedation may require more painful stimuli to evoke a response but that does not equate to anesthetics. Sedation is simply how deep is the sleep-like state and anesthetic agent is pain blocking. Two different *******. Under local anesthetics like lidocaine, there is never any sedation involved and if they want to sedate someone, they won't even used lidocaine to do it. Because it won't sedate anyone!!!!!!! Sure, sedatuve agents are widely used in the field of anesthetics but equating sedation and anesthesia as the same is by far the dumbest argument I ever heard. Besides, it has to be taken in contextual manner - meaning referring to Lidocaine. There is no literature that states that Lidocaine causes sedation, ever. And if you are implying that sedation means losing a feeling of pain to a part of the body, then genius, welcome to michiganwarriors's world. But as usual, you are a dumbass. Nothing more, nothing less. You have problem with reading comprehension? Because you are applying another part of medical terms to justify your manlove for another *****. Otherwise, we will be labelling valium as anesthesia too.
Is there such term as local sedation?????? I will sedate your hand so that you can box without feeeling the pain!!!! Is it the right word? My command of English? WTF? I did not spend half my adult life in university to be criticized about my command of the English language. Why am I responding to a moron? I thought you had me in your ignore list, dumbass. Your reading comprehension sucks.
You dick, you attacked the other poster for using the actual correct word for what they were describing. That's why I asked if english was your first language. But now I see you're just an idiot. Here: sedate verb drug, knock out, dope, anaesthetize, tranquillize, put under sedation, give a sedative to The patient was sedated. Collins Thesaurus of the English Language Now, how are you going to spin that, ******?
What a coincidence, as soon as Elite posters HEADBANGER and Alien start posting irrefutable scientific facts, delusional bumsteaks such as ianwigley disappear from the thread in their droves.:deal
The reason I didn't contribute so much over the last 24 hours is that I've been watching fights for 20 of those 24, and for the other four hours I've been reading a George Kimball (boxing) book...Is that okay with you, ****?
