La aguja se conectar\u00e1 a un tubo intravenoso a trav\u00e9s del cual se administrar\u00e1 la medicaci\u00f3n para ayudarle a relajarse y sentirse c\u00f3modo. En ocasiones, la vena del paciente puede no ser viable; en estas situaciones se administrar\u00e1n los medicamentos y se retirar\u00e1 la aguja; ambos escenarios lograr\u00e1n el mismo nivel deseado de sedaci\u00f3n consciente. Una vez m\u00e1s, algunos pacientes pueden quedarse dormidos, mientras que otros entrar\u00e1n y saldr\u00e1n del sue\u00f1o. Algunos pacientes con afecciones m\u00e9dicas y\/o con determinados reg\u00edmenes farmacol\u00f3gicos pueden estar solo ligeramente sedados y puede que no se duerman en absoluto.    <\/p>\n\n<p>The goal of IV sedation is to use as little medication as possible to get the treatment completed. It is very safe, much safer than oral sedation. With IV sedation a constant \u201cdrip\u201d is maintained via the intravenous tube. At any time an antidote can be administered to reverse the effects of the medications if necessary. Along with IV sedation there are also other different \u201clevels\u201d of sedation available to you in our office. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":10,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"Sedaci\u00f3n intravenosa (IV) - South Miami - Love Your Jaws","_seopress_titles_desc":"Nuestro equipo gu\u00eda a los pacientes a trav\u00e9s de las opciones de sedaci\u00f3n intravenosa (IV) para que comprendan c\u00f3mo se mantiene la relajaci\u00f3n y la comodidad durante los procedimientos.","_seopress_robots_index":""},"content-section":[17,35],"class_list":{"0":"post-1397","1":"other-services","2":"type-other-services","3":"status-publish","5":"content-section-oral-surgery","6":"content-section-other-services","7":"no-post-thumbnail"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.loveyourjaws.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/other-services\/1397","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.loveyourjaws.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/other-services"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.loveyourjaws.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/other-services"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.loveyourjaws.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1397"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"content-section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.loveyourjaws.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-section?post=1397"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
