... This may lead to a decrease in general condition and a higher risk of aspiration pneumonia due to dysphagia, an exaggerated change in the response to muscle relaxants, and delayed recovery of spontaneous breathing after general anesthesia, among other adverse side effects. Therefore, when considering anesthetic management in patients with ALS, careful monitoring and appropriate drug selection is necessary because the likelihood of emergency situations occurring is higher than that in healthy patients [7,8]. ...

... The use of TCI can prevent adverse effects from oversedation, while controlling anxiety and pain. TCI supplies a low dose of anesthetic that can be controlled during sedation, which reduces the risk of oversedation, and is able to maintain a steady concentration of drug and a consistent level of effect with rapid onset [6][7][8]. ...

... However, the dentist may consider sedation and general anesthesia when the child rejects treatment due to negative memories about dental care or severe fear, which make behavioral management impossible [1]. Therefore, the dentist must have knowledge, skill, and behavior that prepare for this possibility [2,3]. ...

... The specific methods of deep sedation using sevoflurane for uncooperative children or disabled patients are as follows 57 : the respiratory mask and tract are prefilled with high concentrations of sevoflurane (8%), O 2 (4 L/min), and nitrous oxide (N 2 O) (4 L/min), and rapid deep sedation is instantly conducted via a sealed face mask. When they have reached a state of deep sedation, a nose hood or nasal cannula is used to maintain the depth of sedation. ...
