Types of Sedation
Our expertise in Sedation encompasses a broad range of sedation types, including:
- General Anaesthesia: Our experts are well-versed in general anaesthesia cases, where patients are rendered completely unconscious. We provide a detailed analysis of the administration, monitoring, and recovery processes associated with general anaesthesia.
- Conscious Sedation: Our Conscious Sedation Expert Witnesses specialise in cases where patients remain awake but relaxed. We assess the appropriateness of sedation levels, patient monitoring, and the management of any complications.
- Deep Sedation: We handle cases involving deep sedation, where patients are not fully conscious but can respond to repeated or painful stimulation. Our experts evaluate the depth of sedation, the techniques used, and the safety measures in place.
- Local Anaesthesia: Our experts cover situations where anaesthesia is applied to specific body parts to numb them. We examine the procedures, the anaesthetic agents’ efficacy, and the post-procedure monitoring.
