V. OTHER BUSINESS

. For Review and Discussion – Updated Draft of Proposed Rulemaking – IAC 650—Ch. 29, “Sedation and Nitrous Oxide Inhalation Analgesia” i. ADA Sedation Guidelines ii. Letter Requesting Information Regarding Sedation Guidelines in Other States and With National Organizations

Ms. Braness provided an update on the status of the proposed rulemaking.

Dr. Frank addressed the letter, which he has proposed. The intent would be to gather information related to deep sedationDRAFT and general anesthesia on the national level. Dr. Frank believed that this would be useful in moving forward on the rulemaking. Dr. Frank recommended that minimum standards for sedation training be required.

Anesthesia Credentials Committee – Subject to ACC Approval July 19, 2018 (Draft: 8/14/2018) 2

Dr. Horton reported that this issue was discussed at a meeting of the ASDA (American Society of Dental Anesthesiology) in Boston, MA. Many of the comments from that meeting were similar to those expressed by Dr. Frank.

 Dr. Westlund joined the meeting at 12:14 p.m.

Dr. Roth asked about the number of waivers that specifically requested exemptions pertaining to deep sedation and general anesthesia. Ms. Braness reported that 3-4 waivers had been received to date.

Dr. Davidson stated that at the previous Board meeting, the Board members appeared to be in favor of having a separate anesthesia provider when possible; though, not to the extent of prohibiting a single provider.

The committee continued to discuss the concerns related to the proposed changes. Dr. Horton was in favor of requiring some training in airway management. Dr. Frank stated that there were a number of concerns related to providing deep sedation in a dental office. As an example, Dr. Frank stated that patients occasionally get violent during recovery. An untrained dentist may not be prepared for that sort of outcome. Dr. Westlund agreed that there needed to be measures in place that would protect the public.

Ms. Stuecker reported that there would be a panel discussion related to these rules at the August 2018 Board meeting. Ms. Stuecker also referenced the letter that Dr. Frank had proposed. Ms. Stuecker asked if there was a consensus by the committee to send the letter.

Dr. Westlund was in favor of sending the letter; though, he recommended clarifying some of the language. For example: . What restrictions or requirements do states have in place concerning the delegation of sedation to another provider? . Must the delegation of sedation be lateral (e.g. moderate sedation permit holder could delegate moderate sedation)? . Could the delegation of sedation also be vertical (e.g. moderate sedation permit holder could delegate deep sedation)?

Dr. Roth indicated that he was in favor of using less restrictive language, and allowing permit holders to delegate one level higher. Dr. Frank asked if a moderate sedation course would be sufficient for the purposes of delegating the administration of deep sedation.

 MOVED by DAVIDSON, SECONDED by CLARK, to send the letter. Motion APPROVED unanimously. DRAFT Dr. Davidson addressed the proposed requirement for ACLS or PALS certification for dental auxiliary who monitor sedation services. Dr. Davidson was in favor of requiring this for deep sedation or general anesthesia; however, he believed that it may be unnecessary for moderate sedation.

Anesthesia Credentials Committee – Subject to ACC Approval July 19, 2018 (Draft: 8/14/2018) 3

Ms. Braness noted that any training, which would be required by rule would need to be training that could be obtained. It was not clear to Ms. Braness whether alternatives were available within existing programs. Dr. Horton, Dr. Westlund and Dr. Frank noted that groups such as the ASDA and AAOMS have programs specifically designed for auxiliary who assist in sedation. Ms. Braness stated that she would research these options further as an alternative to ACLS/PALS certification.

Dr. Thies agreed that ACLS/PALS certification may not be accessible to dental auxiliary, and was in favor of other training that would be better focused on the services auxiliary would be able to perform in emergencies.

OPPORTUNITY FOR PUBLIC COMMENT

There weren’t any comments received.

VI. ADJOURN

 MOVED by WESTLUND, SECONDED by DEJONG, to ADJOURN. Motion APPROVED unanimously.

The Anesthesia Credentials Committee adjourned its meeting at 12:45 p.m.

DENTAL BOARD [650]

Notice of Intended Action The Dental Board hereby proposes to rescind Chapter 29, “Sedation and Nitrous Oxide Inhalation Analgesia” and replace with a new Chapter 29, “Sedation and Nitrous Oxide” Iowa Administrative Code 650.

Legal Authority for Rule Making

This rule making is proposed under the authority provided in Iowa Code section 147.76 and 153.33.

State or Federal Law Implemented

This rule making implements, in whole or in part, Iowa Code sections 153.33, and 153.33B.

Purpose and Summary

The primary purpose of these amendments is to update the requirements for providing sedation and nitrous oxide inhalation analgesia in dental offices. The amendments have been drafted based on updated recommendations and input from interested parties.

These amendments would update requirements for providing moderate sedation, deep sedation and general anesthesia in dental offices. These amendments specify the conditions under which the administration of the sedation services may be delegated to another health care provider, such as an anesthesiologist or nurse anesthetist.

These amendments clarify that training in the use of nitrous oxide when enrolled in an accredited school of dentistry or dental hygiene is approved for the purposes of these rules. These amendments also clarify what a dental assistant is allowed and/or required to do while monitoring the administration of nitrous oxide.

These amendments establish a requirement for training in the monitoring of patients under moderate sedation, deep sedation, or general anesthesia. Due to the increased risk of these levels of sedation, the training could focus on additional training in observation of a patient under sedation, and prepare them for recognizing signs of an adverse reaction or occurrence.

These amendments would establish a prohibition the use of drugs intended for deeper levels of sedation from being employed for the purposes of moderate sedation. These amendments clarify the facilities and locations subject to inspection and the equipment required to maintained at each facility where moderate sedation, deep sedation and/or general anesthesia is performed. DRAFT These amendments update terminology to be more specific and to make clearer the requirements for providing sedation or nitrous oxide inhalation analgesia. These amendments also reorder some of the rules for clearer understanding and reference.

Dental Board [650] Ch. 29, p. 2

Fiscal Impact

This rule making has no fiscal impact to the state of Iowa.

Jobs Impact

After analysis and review of this rule making, there is no impact on jobs.

Waivers

The proposed amendments are subject to waiver or variance pursuant to 650-chapter 7.

Public Comment

Any interested person may submit written comments on this proposed rulemaking. Written comments in response to this rule making must be received by the Board no later than 4:30 p.m. on XXX. Comments should be directed to:

Steve Garrison, Program Officer Iowa Dental Board 400 S.W. Eighth Street, Suite D Des Moines, Iowa 50309 Email: [email protected] Fax: 515-281-7969

Public Hearing

As provided in Iowa Code section 17A.4(1)”b,” an oral presentation regarding this rule may be demanded by 25 interested persons, a governmental subdivision, the Administrative Rules Review Committee, an agency, or an association having 25 or more members.

Review by the Administrative Rules Review Committee

The Administrative Rules Review Committee, a bipartisan legislative committee which oversees rule making by executive branch agencies, may, on its own motion or on written request by any individual or group, review this rule making at its regular monthly meeting or at a special meeting. The Committee’s meetings are open to the public, and interested persons may be heard as provided in Iowa Code section 17A.8(6). DRAFT

The following rule-making actions are proposed:

Dental Board [650] Ch. 29, p. 3

CHAPTER 29

SEDATION AND NITROUS OXIDE INHALATION ANALGESIA

[Prior to 5/18/88, Dental Examiners, Board of[320]]

650—29.1(153) Definitions. For the purpose of these rules, relative to the administration of deep sedation/general anesthesia, moderate sedation, minimal sedation, and nitrous oxide inhalation analgesia by licensed dentists, the following definitions shall apply:

“Antianxiety premedication” means minimal sedation. A dentist providing minimal sedation must meet the requirements of rule 650— 29. 3 (153).

“ASA” refers to the American Society of Anesthesiologists Patient Physical Status Classification System.

Category 1 means normal healthy patients, and category 2 means patients with mild systemic disease. Category

3 means patients with moderate systemic disease, and category 4 means patients with severe systemic disease that is a constant threat to life.

“Board” means the Iowa dental board established in Iowa Code section 147.14(1) “d.”

“Capnography” means the monitoring of the concentration of exhaled carbon dioxide in order to assess physiologic status or determine the adequacy of ventilation during anesthesia.

“Committee” or “ACC” means the anesthesia credentials committee of the board.

“Conscious sedation” means moderate sedation.

“Deep sedation/general anesthesia” is a controlled state of unconsciousness, produced by a pharmacologic agent, accompanied by a partial or complete loss of protective reflexes, including inability to independently maintain an airway and respond purposefully to physical stimulation or verbal command.

“Delegation of deep sedation/general anesthesia or moderate sedation” means the delegation of moderate sedation or deep sedation/generalDRAFT anesthesia in a dental facility by a sedation permit holder to sedation provider as permitted by state or federal law. Eligible sedation providers include another sedation permit holder, an anesthesiologist currently licensed by the Iowa Board of Medicine or a certified registered nurse anesthetist (CRNA) currently licensed by the Iowa Board of Nursing.

Dental Board [650] Ch. 29, p. 4

“Facility” means a dental facility office, clinic, dental school, or other location where sedation is used.

“Hospitalization” means in-patient treatment at a hospital or clinic. Out-patient treatment at an emergency room or clinic is not considered to be hospitalization for the purposes of reporting adverse occurrences.

“Maximum recommended dose (MRD)” means the maximum FDA-recommended dose of a drug as printed in FDA-approved labeling for unmonitored home use.

“Minimal sedation” means a minimally depressed level of consciousness, produced by a pharmacological method, that retains the patient’s ability to independently and continuously maintain an airway and respond normally to tactile stimulation and verbal command. Although cognitive function and coordination may be modestly impaired, ventilatory and cardiovascular functions are unaffected. The term “minimal sedation” also means “antianxiety premedication” or “anxiolysis.” A dentist providing minimal sedation shall meet the requirements of rule 650— 29. 3 (153).

“Moderate sedation” means a drug-induced depression of consciousness, either by enteral or parenteral means, during which patients respond purposefully to verbal commands, either alone or accompanied by light tactile stimulation. No interventions are required to maintain a patent airway and spontaneous ventilation is adequate. Cardiovascular function is usually maintained. Prior to January 1, 2010, moderate sedation was referred to as conscious sedation.

“Monitoring nitrous oxide inhalation analgesia” means continually observing the patient receiving nitrous oxide and recognizing and notifying the dentist of any adverse reactions or complications.

“Nitrous oxide inhalation analgesia” refers to the administration by inhalation of a combination of nitrous oxide and oxygen producing an altered level of consciousness that retains the patient’s ability to independently and continuously maintain an airway and respond appropriately to physical stimulation or verbal command.

“Pediatric” means patients aged 12 or under.

DRAFT STATE OF IOWA IOWA DENTAL BOARD

KIM REYNOLDS, GOVERNOR JILL STUECKER ADAM GREGG, LT. GOVERNOR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

September 18, 2018

Dear Dr.

I am corresponding today on behalf of the Anesthesia Credentials Committee for the Iowa Dental Board (IDB). Our committee provides supporting commentary and recommendations to the IDB when the board makes decisions about sedation and anesthesia services provided by dentists in Iowa. Iowa dental providers who provide moderate sedation, deep sedation or general anesthesia services in their office must first obtain a state-issued permit under the direction of the IDB. Our committee assists in reviewing the credentials of the applicants for this process. Our guidelines typically follow the ADA guidelines for the use of sedation and general anesthesia by dentists. Permit holders are then required to document training beyond that of the baseline skills acquired in the dental school experience before receiving their permit. Iowa dentists who desire to provide deep sedation or general anesthesia services are required to demonstrate a more advanced level of training when compared to permits issued for moderate sedation.

Recently the IDB has received several requests for waivers to this process. The waivers request authorization for dental providers to delegate the provision of anesthesia related services to a second anesthesia specific provider. The waivers are for services to be provided in an office-based setting with the adjunct of a deep sedation or general anesthesia. The IDB subsequently requested input from the anesthesia committee because of the deep sedation or general anesthesia component.

Early discussions by the Anesthesia Credentials Committee recognized the benefits of a dedicated anesthesia provider. However, the committee has suggested that even if dentists are going to delegate the anesthesia specific services, the dental service provider still needs to be obligated to some minimum level of anesthesia specific training. The reasoning behind this position is that there must be a balance of understanding and a shared core of knowledge between the dental service provider and the anesthesia service provider. Providing dental procedure services with the adjunct of deep sedation or general anesthesia in a dental office setting is a completely different circumstance than managing a patient whose protective reflexes are intact. This point must be underscored when an open airway deep sedation or general anesthesia is anticipated in the office setting.

The Anesthesia Credentials Committee subsequently recommended that Iowa dental service providers who delegate anesthesia specific services in their dental offices should be required to demonstrate a minimum level of anesthesia specific training. This minimum level was determined to be the training for, and the receipt of, a moderate sedation permit in Iowa. The committee’s position has met resistance.

The focus question in this debate is: Do general dentists with no sedation or anesthesia training beyond the training that they receive in dental school have the background knowledge and experience necessary to treat patients who are receiving deep sedation or general anesthesia in an office setting? For this question we will assume that we have a well-skilled anesthesia specific provider. However, we will not necessarily assume that the anesthesia provider has knowledge of dental procedures. We will also assume that the most likely anesthesia service will be an open airway or non-intubated deep sedation or general anesthesia. This focus question is directed toward office-based procedures only, not those procedures

400 SW 8th STREET, SUITE D, DES MOINES, IA 50309- 4687 PHONE:515- 281- 5157 FAX:515- 281- 7969 http://www.dentalboard.iowa.gov provided in an outpatient hospital or outpatient surgical center. The committee recognizes that those institutions are more rigorously controlled and typically have several layers of safeguards built in. Additionally, procedures are more typically completed with an intubated and protected airway in those facilities.

The IDB Anesthesia Credentials Committee is therefore reaching out to experts in the field of dental anesthesia and, in particular, those who are familiar with the provision of dental services with the adjunct of deep sedation or general anesthesia. We respectfully request your comments related to our focus question and a short series of questions along a related line of considerations. Please take the time to provide your comments.

Related questions:

1. Should the dental service provider who is delegating the deep sedation or general anesthesia service in the office setting be required to have some minimum level of actual deep sedation or general anesthesia training to better understand the interaction of anesthesia and dental services?

2. Should dental hygienists who provide hygiene services for patients receiving deep sedation or general anesthesia in an office setting be required to have some minimum level of sedation or anesthesia training to better understand the interaction of anesthesia and hygiene services?

3. Does a dental provider who is delegating both hygiene and anesthesia services need to be physically present in the treatment room while hygiene services are provided with the adjunct of deep sedation or general anesthesia in an office setting?

4. If you are involved with a residency training program, what experiences do your residents have with treating patients with deep sedation or general anesthesia (not moderate sedation)? In these circumstances are patients managed in a clinic environment or in the O.R.?

5. In your area, how are patients who require deep sedation or general anesthesia as an adjunct to general dental procedures typically managed?

6. In your area, are adjunctive deep sedation or general anesthesia services typically completed with an “open airway” technique or an “airway device” technique when completed in the office setting?

A final statement would be this: We are all too familiar with several unfortunate experiences that our colleagues in dentistry have encountered in recent years. Our committee’s concern is that if we as dentists do not act to monitor our own profession, we are failing in our obligations to the public and to other members of our profession. We may lose control of our own profession and then be subject to monitoring and regulation from outside the profession. When making our recommendations, we desire to be informed and we desire to be fair. We therefore reach out to you and our colleagues in dentistry for your expertise.

Thank you,

John Frank, DDS and Anesthesia Credentials Committee Iowa Dental Board 400 SW 8th Street Suite D Des Moines IA 50309-4687

Dear Dr. Frank and the Anesthesia Credentials Committee,

General dentists with no sedation or anesthesia training beyond the training they received in dental school do NOT have the background knowledge or experience necessary to safely treat patients receiving “non-intubated” deep sedation or general anesthesia in an office setting, even with a well-skilled anesthesia provider. Airway protection is the over- riding concern: protection from secretions; irrigation; broken pieces of teeth; blood; crowns or other loose dental components; etc. The importance of airway protection cannot be overstated nor learned without formal training and experience. The skilled anesthesia provider cannot be expected to prevent inadvertent airway compromise from the general dental provider who is working in the mouth. The overseeing general dentist must be skilled in airway management and thereby understand the importance of protecting it.

Our experienced medical anesthesiologists at the University of Iowa are hesitant to provide non-intubated deep sedation or general anesthesia for general dental procedures. They were surprised to learn how many “potential airway stimulants” occur with general dental procedures. In fact, general dental patients that require more than controlled procedural sedation to provide dental care at the University of Iowa are intubated for airway protection.

Clearly we do NOT endorse this anesthesia model in the general dental office out of concern for patient safety. We do not believe the airway can be controlled adequately or protected for many if not most general dental procedures. Even one anesthesia related death in a dental office is too many. Bottom line, if a controlled, light procedural sedation is not adequate to perform dental cleanings or general dental procedures in an office setting, consideration for an operating room setting with intubation is recommended. Page 2 Anesthesia Credentials Committee Iowa Dental Board August 24, 2018

However, should this anesthesia model be pushed forward, the following recommendations are offered:

1. The general dentist must receive advanced anesthesia training beyond what is taught in dental school and must include live airway training. At a minimum, the general dentist MUST meet the state requirements for a moderate sedation permit.

2. The general dentist must be present in the room to perform or staff the entire dental procedure(s) for patients undergoing deep sedation or general anesthesia in conjunction with a skilled anesthesia provider.

3. The general dentist and any other dental provider must be current with BLS and ACLS or PALS.

4. The patient undergoing dental procedures with deep sedation or general anesthesia must have a formal history and physical (or equivalent document with key elements) completed within 30 days of the procedure(s) and it must be updated the day of the procedure(s) to rule out health changes, upper respiratory infection, recent drug use, pregnancy, etc. Documentation must include ASA status, BMI and METS criteria or equivalent.

5. Standardized anesthesia charting is mandatory and must be contemporaneous.

6. Only ASA 1 and 2 category patients should be considered viable for this anesthesia model. Special restrictions are needed for pediatric patients (definition?), elderly patients and those patients with elevated body mass index.

7. Recurring office anesthesia evaluations by peers or designated agencies must be done; these office evaluations must include and document consistent, comprehensive office emergency simulations.

8. Offices must be fully equipped to provide adequate monitoring including pulse oximetry, capnography, ECG tracing, precordial stethoscope, blood pressure and pulse. Additionally, offices must be fully equipped to treat all potential anesthetic emergencies (equipment and drugs).

Please do not hesitate to contact us should you have any questions.

John Frank, DDS IOWA DENTAL BOARD Anesthesia Credentials Committee Iowa Dental Board 400 SW 8th Street, Suite D Des Moines, IA 50309-4687

Dear Dr. Frank/

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the questions currently being reviewed by the iowa Dental Board Anesthesia Credentials Committee. I agree these questions are very important and applaud your effort to gain a wide consensus from experienced providers.

Here are my thoughts on the questions you listed:

1. Should the dental service provider who is delegating the deep sedation or genera! anesthesia service in the office setting be required to have some minimal level of actual deep sedation or general anesthesia training to better understand the interaction of anesthesia and dental services?

Absoluteiy. In my career i have worked with a wide variety of dentists that ranges from dentists with no formal training beyond dental school to dual degree specialists. In more specific terms/ that represents approximately 10,000 cases in a period of about 26 years. In my experience/ the patient is better served when the dental provider has undergone some degree of advanced training or specific sedation training. Our scientific literature confirms that the degree of normal muscle tone that keeps an airway open during consciousness is markedly reduced/ or absent during deep sedation and general anesthesia. Based on my own observations, it is extremely easy for dental operators to obstruct or compromise an airway in the anesthetized patient, even when a separate anesthesia provider is managing the airway. Advanced training provides a familiarity with and respect for the airway that is not achievable without mentored clinicaf instruction. This is particularly important when the anesthesia provider is using a nonintubated airway management technique, but also applies to cases with endotracheai intubation. At a minimum, I think the dentist should have moderate sedation training, since that ievel of training includes exposure to patients with deep sedation and general anesthesia.

2. Should denta! hygienists who provide services for patients receiving deep sedation or general anesthesia in an office setting be required to have some minimum level ofsedation or anesthesia training to better understand the interaction of anesthesia and hygiene services?

Yes/ for the same reason stated in the question above. This is most apparent to me when I am providing general anesthesia for a dentist who employs an expanded functional dental assistant or hygienist. Very few auxiliaries and hygienists have the benefit of training to prepare them for practicing in the context ofdeepsedation and general anesthesia. There are certainly exceptions/ but i am not aware of any specific training requirements in their respective curricula that prepare them forthis experience. Inexperienced operators are often less aware of the hazards posed by excessive traction on the mandible, excessive use of irrigation/ inadequate debridement and inadvertent obstruction, Providing a basic orientation course for hygienists would increase the margin of safety for patients receiving office- based deep sedation and general anesthesia for dental hygiene services.

3. Does a dental provider who is delegating both hygiene and anesthesia services need to be physically present in the treatment room while hygiene services are provided with the adjunct of deep sedatt'on or general anesthesia?

If the delegating dental provider is using a physician or dentist anesthesiologjst, I do not believe there is a need to be in the room, since hygienists do not require the presence of a delegating dentist in the treatment room for routine services. However, 1 base this on my own practice of always performing office-based anesthesia with the assistance of my own nurse, independent of the office I am serving. Some physician and dentist anesthesiologists may want the delegating dentist to be available to assist in certain anesthetic urgencies or emergencies. in that case, the delegating dentist should be on the premises and immediately available.

4. if you are involved with a residency program, what experiences do your residents have with treating patients with deep sedatson and general anesthesia? fn these circumstances are patients managed in a clinic environment or in the OR?

Residents from the Riley Hospital Pediatric Dental Residency program shadow me in my dental anesthesia practice. I provide approximately 15-20 office-based general anesthetics per week to approximately 26 dentists in the Indianapolis area. Greater than 80% are pediatric dental practices. All anesthetics are office-based and essentially all are general anesthetics. Each resident spends a minimum of two full days as part of their scheduled offsite experiences. During that time, they gain observationai experience, as well as experience in airway management and delivering intramuscular injections. The purpose of this experience is to provide practical experience that may guide them in their future practices when addressing emergencies during any form of sedation or anesthesia.

5. In your area, how are patients who require deep sedation or general anesthesia as an adjunct to general dental procedures typically managed?

Given that the patients requiring this service are most often young children or special needs patients, practices typically employ a dentist anesthesiologist to provide office-based deep sedation/general anesthesia or take their patients to a hospital or surgery center. To my knowledge/ there are approximately 8 "10 facilities that accommodate this service. Several of the pediatric dentists I work with report long wait times to treat patients in a hospital or surgery center (typically several months).

6. In your area, are adjunctive deep sedation or general anesthesia services typically completed with an open airway "technique or an "airway device" technique when completed in the office setting.

The selection of an airway management technique is dependent upon the type of patient being treated and the preference of the anesthesia provider. I don't believe there is a strong correlation between the geographic area and airway management techniques, in my own practice, we currently intubate approximately 30% to 40% of patients. Intubation is preferred for longer, more complex cases/ particularly when bleeding or the use of irrigation or impressions may pose a potential threat to an open airway. I also prefer intubation when preoperative examination of the patient reveals large tonsils or other anatomic factors that increase the risk for obstruction under general anesthesia. In addition to intubation/1 often use a laryngeal mask airway (LMA) for airway management. The "open airway" cases I perform are not truly open, as I routinely place nasopharyngeal airways with the tip approximately 5mm from the arytenoid cartilage of the larynx and pack the oropharynx with a compressible throat sponge/ using direct laryngoscopy. All patients receive supplemental oxygen and capnography with this technique and the head is immobilized prior to treatment. In my experience, this type of nonintu bated airway management technique works well when working with experienced dental operators on short cases (less than 45 minutes).

Thank you again for the opportunity to provide comments on these important questions. In dosing/ I would also like to strongly recommend that all providers of office-based anesthesia !og their clinical outcomes and participate in a shared database for other dental office-based anesthesia providers. This enables the development of best practices and reliable outcomes data and enhances safety. There are several models for this that allow practitioners to participate in away that protects the individual identity of patients and practitioners while providing important safety data.

Sincerely,

RE: Sedation

Members of the Iowa Dental Board,

I want to commend and thank you for your services on the board. Your efforts are appreciated!

In regard to your recent discussions on sedation in a dental ‘facility’, it is obtusely obvious that a lot of dogs have come to this fight; each senses they have something to gain or lose as a result of these hearings and your eventual vote. You have been presented with truths, bias, and hyperbole. Now you have the tough job of separating these distillates before arriving at your final decision.

Sedation has been a lifelong interest of mine, stimulated in oral surgery blocks and rotations in dental school at the University of Iowa in 1977/1978. I was encouraged and mentored by many of our fine professors and faculty to continue my learning. We had no monitors, no pulse oximeters, no short acting drugs, no reversal agents, no precordial stethoscopes, no IV catheters, less knowledge, less technology, and less safe guards. By today’s standard, we lacked much. What we did not lack was the expectation from our mentors that we could and would be of service to the people in our communities. We commenced with confidence and fortitude.

In my 40 years of general practice, I am nearing my 3,000th successful sedation as a solo provider. I say this with all humility and only to salute and honor the myriad of mentors that have made this possible. I am a product of their generous sharing of knowledge, time, and belief in me.

We are now raising the next generation of our profession. Who do we envision them to be? We need to cultivate their desire and enthusiasm and be mentors to them, but it is imperative that we have dental practice laws that facilitate this process. I was confused and flabbergasted re‐reading pages 1‐19 of Chapter 29 of the Iowa Code and Rules. With its tangled web of rules and regulations, it loudly shouted, “Doubt! Fear! Mistrust!” And now you appear poised to add yet additional strands to that web by “searching for the best model”, as recently referenced by a board member?

Why do we look to hang our hat on only one model? Are the resources available in the Des Moines metro the same as they are in much of rural Iowa? Absolutely not! Are the people residing in more rural areas less needful of sedation services? Emphatically no! We have taken our eye off the ball – serving the people of Iowa and their access to care – while continuing to weave this nearly impenetrable blockade for practitioners, particularly our young ones.

I think you would do well to pause, table this item for 6 months, and really listen to what the dentists and their patients in the state of Iowa are saying. Sedation can be safe, effective, available, and affordable if we are all committed to a spirit of excellence within the dental sedation community.

Sincerely,

Dean R Hussong, DDS., S.C. 10 Bradly Farm Rd 1010 S 3rd St, Suite 2A 26 S Main St Tomahawk, WI 54487 Polk City, IA 50226 Albia, IA 52531 715.453.5321 515.984.6001 641.932.2729

2) Minimal Sedation definition - 29.3(3) - (Page 4) – In reviewing the definition of minimal sedation as noted in , section 29.3(3), we believe this not to be consistent with either the 2016 American Dental Association sedation guidelines or the 2018 American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Practice Guidelines for Moderate Procedural Sedation and Analgesia. The latter report was endorsed by the ASA Task Force on Moderate Procedural Sedation and Analgesia, the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, American College of Radiology, American Dental Association, American Society of Dentist Anesthesiologists, and Society of Interventional Radiology

Rather, the current proposed rule seems to be based on the 2012 ADA guidelines and we would recommend it gets updated to reflect the most recent standards. To that end, we would recommend the following definition:

a. Minimal sedation for adults is limited to a dentist's prescribing or administering a single enteral drug (or in divided doses) that is no more than 1.0 times the maximum recommended dose (MRD) of a drug that can be prescribed for unmonitored home use. A single supplemental dose of the same drug may be administered, provided the supplemental dose is no more than one- half of the initial dose and the dentist does not administer the supplemental dose until the dentist has determined the clinical half-life of the initial dose has passed. b. The total aggregate dose shall not exceed 1.5 times the MRD on the day of treatment.

3) Moderate Sedation Definition (Page 6) – We would advise a similar update to the definition of moderate sedation, as noted below:

29.5(3) the following shall constitute moderate sedation: a. The prescription or administration of a single dose of a single enteral drug in excess of 1.5 the MRD on the day of treatment; b. The combination of more than one enteral drug; c. The administration or prescription of drugs that are not recommended for unmonitored home use; d. The administration of nitrous oxide with more than one enteral drug; and e. The moderate sedation of an ASA category 3-4 patient or a pediatric patient as defined pursuant to subrule 29.4(4)c.

4) Use of Capnography – 29.6(11) - (page 8) – We support the required use of capnography to monitor end-tidal CO2, as mandated by the most recent guidelines as referenced above.

5) Definition of Deep sedation/general anesthesia - 29.7(1) - (Page 9) – We recommend the addition of the word “anesthetic” to complement the word “sedative” when referring to any substance that can produce a controlled state of unconsciousness.

6) Deep sedation/general anesthesia permit holders – 29.9(153) - (page 9) - We would recommend the addition of language to designate a unique area in the office, appropriately

2 equipped, to facilitate safe recovery of patients in circumstances in which deep sedation or general anesthesia was provided.

7) Delegation of moderate sedation and general anesthesia services – 29.10(1) - (page 12) – Similar to our comments on item #1 above, we feel that the reference in the 2nd and 3rd lines to “an anesthesiologist currently licensed by the Iowa Board of Medicine” should be removed and replaced, in the appropriate sections, with a reference to the word, “referral” to show that an anesthesiologist works as an independent provider.

8) Delegation of moderate sedation and general anesthesia services – 29.10(8) - (page 13) - Section 29.10(8) should be amended to include anesthesiologists. “Permit holders and physician anesthesiologists may administer sedation on behalf of another a licensed dentist, who does not hold a sedation permit, provided the permit holder or physician anesthesiologist complies with the following: a. The sedation permit holder or physician anesthesiologist completes a pre-operative evaluation of the patient, and determines the patient is a suitable candidate for sedation; b. The sedation permit holder or physician anesthesiologist administers the administration of the moderate or deep sedation/general anesthesia;

9) Two additional issues for the Board of Dentistry’s consideration: a. In order to best assure for the safe conduct of the anesthetic , we believe that physician anesthesiologists should be able to bring in their own equipment and drugs to a permitted facility, consistent with the medical practice act. The physician anesthesiologist will assume the legal responsibility for the transport of this equipment and therapeutic agents, the selection of which is based upon the education, training, and experience of the physician as well as ASA guidelines.

b. Special consideration should be made for pediatric patients under the age of six years old. The 2018 American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Practice Guidelines for Moderate Procedural Sedation and Analgesia addressed this patient population in the following manner:

“Patients age six (6) and under are unlikely to be able to cooperate with procedures under moderate sedation and may require deep sedation and/general anesthesia. They are at particular risk for respiratory or other complications and have a greater risk of sustaining life-threatening events. Therefore, ASA recommends that all training and protocols should have specific measures for this patient population, including the same standard of care and monitoring for moderate sedation as for deep sedation and general anesthesia, i.e. a distinct and separate qualified anesthesia provider not otherwise involved in the procedure.”

3 Thank you for the opportunity to share our written comments with you.

Summary of Recommendations

The Blue Ribbon Panel on Dental Sedation/Anesthesia Safety (BRP) reviewed de-identified data compiled during board investigations in fiscal years 2012 through 2016 involving patient mortalities and patient harm during or following dental treatment at which sedation/anesthesia was administered and evaluated the appropriate substance and application of emergency protocols related to the administration of sedation/anesthesia.

Panel members, with the assistance of SBDE staff, performed an intensive review of 78 cases. Examination of these 78 cases resulted in the determination that 19 of these events were related to mishandled sedation/anesthesia. BRP identified six of the 19 cases as major events. BRP identified 13 of the 19 cases as mishaps. The panel also reviewed other state laws/rules and scientific literature.

A summary of the BRP recommendations are as follows:

Clinical recommendations:

• SBDE shall have full authority to inspect dental offices where any level of sedation/anesthesia is provided with emphasis on assessing competency of the sedation provider;

• Texas dentists should be required to have written emergency protocols and should be required to document that they practice these protocols with office staff through exercises such as "drills" several times per year;

• The SBDE mandate that at least one support staff member assisting with a sedation procedure (level 2/ 3, 4) receive training in the recognition and management of sedation/anesthesia related emergencies;

• Texas dentists providing moderate/deep/general anesthesia (levels 2, 3, 4) to children under the age of 8 be required to document to the SBDE age specific sedation training; • Texas dentists providing moderate/deep/general anesthesia (levels 2/3/4) to "high risk" patients (age 75 and older, BMI greater than or equal to 30, ASA classification 3, 4} be required to document to the SBDE specific training regarding these groups of patients;

• Offices where portable providers practice be required to have basic ventilation equipment onsite; and.

• Capnography and precordial stethoscope be mandated for level 2, 3 and 4 procedures.

Administrative recommendations:

• The SBDE should establish a standing independent sedation advisory panel to continue to review and advise the SBDE regarding sedation/anesthesia issues;

• The SBDE make public de-identified sedation related major events and mishaps;

• The SBDE collect data regarding sedations performed by Texas dentists, (non- accident data);

• The SBDE create a system to evaluate and approve sedation/anesthesia continuing education;

• The SBDE mandate that the sedation record for a dental procedure be a required part of the dental record/ even if the sedation provider is a non-dentist;

• The SBDE consider creation of a recurrent sedation/anesthesia written examination covering sedation/anesthesia rules; and

• The Texas Legislature make an effort to encourage other state legislatures to share de-identified sedation/anesthesia data publicly.

AdministrativejsuggestJQns:

• The SBDE consider creation of a required online sedation/anesthesia rules examination;

• The SBDE consider encouraging or mandating that dentists use a preoperative sedation checklist; and

• The SBDE consider including more detail En the SBDE rules regarding appropriate pre-operative evaluation and an acceptable sedation/anesthesia record. Report to the Texas Sunset Advisory Commission of the Blue Ribbon Panel on Dental Anesthesia/Sedation Safety Texas State Board of Dental Examiners January 2017

I. Introduction

On August 22, 2016, the Sunset Review Commission directed the Texas State Board of Dental Examiners [SBDE] to establish an independent Blue Ribbon Panel [BRP] to review dental anesthesia-related deaths and mishaps in Texas. On Augusfc 31,2016, SBDE met to establish the BRP, charging the BRP with:

a. reviewing de-identified investigative data related to dental anesthesia- related deaths and mishaps investigated by SBDE between 2011 and 2016; b. reporting on trends and commonalities in the de-identified data; c. reviewing sedation/anesthesia laws, regulations, and studies from other jurisdictions and review relevant published scientific literature; d. opining on whether present laws, regulations, and board policies are sufficient to protect patients; e. recommending appropriate changes to the laws, regulations, and board policies related to the administration of sedation/anesthesia to dental patients in Texas; and f. evaluating emergency protocols.

II. Blue Ribbon Panel Membership and Meetings

The members of the BRP are active sedation providers from various disciplines of dentistry. SBDE selected members of the BRP from its existing dental review panel of licensed Texas dentists who serve as expert reviewers in SBDE s investigations.

The members of the BRP are: * Dr. Bryce Chandler, DDS, general dentist, level 2 provider • Dr. Rena Kuba, DDS, pediatric dentist, level 2 provider • Dr. Ernie Luce, DDS, general dentist, level 3 provider, portable - Chairman • Dr. Robert McNeUL MD, DDS, oral and maxillofacial surgeon/ physician, level 4 provider • Dr. Ronald Redden, DDS, dentist anesthesiologist, level 4 provider, portable • Dr. David Yu, DDS, periodontist, level 3 provider

Three of the members, Drs. Kuba, Luce, and Redden teach sedation/anesthesia in a Texas dental school.

The BRP met in person, in meetings open to the public, on four occasions. BRP member attendance at each of the meetings was 100%. 3 Project Chronology:

High risk - describes patients who are obese (BMI ^ 30, compromised health [ASA 3 and 4) or elderly [75 years of age or older) IV. Current Sedatlon Permit Levels

The SBDE formally permits Texas dentists to provide different levels of sedation/anesthesia based on educational experience.1 The higher the level of sedation, the greater the educational requirements to obtain that permit. The levels are:

Nitrous oxide/oxygen naughing aas) - typically the lightest level of sedation.

Level 1 sedation (mmiman - a single oral sedative, may be mixed with nitrous oxide, patients become relaxed, but will respond normally to gentle touch. They are very easily awakened.

Level 2 sedation (moderate oral] - multiple oral sedatives are allowed, patients are relaxed but respond purposely to gentle touch. They are easily awakened.

Level 3 sedation (moderate parenteral) - multiple sedatives may be administered by injection [such as an intravenous line). Patients are relaxed but respond purposely to gentle touch, as in level 2. They are easily awakened. level 4 sedation/anesthessa (deep sedation/general anesthesia) - multiple sedatives may be administered by any route, including injection. Patients are "asleep". A painful stimulus must be repeatedly applied to the patient in order to elicit a response, if they respond at all. They are difficult or impossible to wake up with physical stimulation.

V. Review and Analysis of De-identified Data - Major Events and Mishaps

The BRP made an in-depth review of 78 cases investigated by SBDE in search of evidence of mishandled sedation/anesthesia,2 BRP identified six of the 78 cases as major sedation/anesthesia events. BRP identified 13 of the 78 cases as sedation/anesthesia mishaps. Findings were defined as:

a. major events meaning the case resulted in mortality or permanent morbidity and was directly related to mishandled sedation/anesthesia

b. mishaps meaning that an adverse event occurred without permanent injury and was directly related to mishandled sedation/anesthesia

1 See Appendix 1 forSBDE Sedation/Anesthesia rules.

2 Seventy-five of the 78 cases were resolved at the time of review. Three of the 78 cases were under SBDE investigation at the time of BRP review but were incorporated into the BRP review due to their high profile nature and relevance to BRP charge. Major Events - Summary of the Six Major Sedation/Anesthesia Events

Patient Age Health Status S/A Provider Intended Level Outcome adult under 75 obese, cardiac dz Dentist anesth 4,deep IV mortality adult under 75 obese, DM, CV dz Periodontist 3, moderate IV mortality child under 8 healthy General dentist 2, moderate oral brain damage child under 8 healthy Pediatric dentist 2, moderate oral mortality child under 8 cardiac disease MD anesth 4,GA mortality child under 8 healthy MD anesth 4,GA mortality

BRP Findings Regarding the Six Major Sedafcion/Anesthesia Events;

a. Every event involved either young children (child under 8) or adults with high risk factors [obese/compromised health/elderly).

b. Highly trained specialists [including physicians] or a general dentist provided the sedation/anesthesia in each of the major events.

c. For the intended level 2 and 3 events, the patient almost certainly became more deeply sedated than intended. Once deeply sedated, the patient is difficult or impossible to awaken with physical stimulation. It is at this point that breathing becomes compromised. If not recognized and corrected quickly, brain damage or death ensues rapidly.

d. Poor pre-operative evaluation/ drug overdose, not following current monitoring requirements and poor emergency management were also prominent in these cases.

e. Regarding portable providers, a total of four of the major events involved a provider practicing on a portable basis. Two of these four major events involved portable physician anesthesiologists. Being portable did not appear to contribute directly to these major events.

The other two of these four major events involved a portable dentist sedation/anesthesia provider, a level 3 and a level 4 provider. In these two cases/ the provider appeared to not have required emergency equipment that would have been useful in the evolving emergency.

It is unknown how many sedation/anesthetics are performed in Texas on a "portable" basis vs. a "non-porfcable" basis.

Mishaps - Summary of the 13 Sedation/Anesthesia Mishaps

Of the 78 cases studied by BRP, BRP identified 13 cases in which a sedation/anesthesia mishap occurred. Pertinent factors in the mishaps include: a. Eight of the 13 mishaps involved children under 8 or high-risk adults [obese, compromised health or elderly).

b. Dental specialists [oral & maxillofacial surgeons - one case, dentist anesthesiologist - one case, periodontists - two cases and pediatric dentists - three cases) as well as general dentists - six cases, provided the sedation/anesthesla in these cases.

c. The severity of the mishaps ranged from minor to serious.

d. The nature of the mishaps was also quite varied and included drug overdose, premature discharge, predictable but unanticipated drug interaction due to poor drug selection, bolus drug administration (instead of slow, careful, incremental drug administration), and poor management in the early stages of a developing urgency allowing the condition to further deteriorate to an emergent condition and delayed calls to 911.

e. Some of the mishaps occurred in the office while some developed after what was a premature or inappropriate discharge.

f. When an emergency did develop in the office, poor emergency management was present in almost all cases.

g. Every mishap involving a high risk adult patient also involved inadequate or poorly documented pre-procedural patient evaluation and some element of poor sedation technique (such as bolus drug administration, not utilizing required monitors or not being attentive to monitors that were being used while indicating a developing urgency).

VI. Summary Comments Regarding Trends in Sedation/Anesthesia

The SBDE has 16,719 dentists with an active license, and 7,502 licensees hold a Level 1-4 permit. The SBDE has not been required to collect data on each administration of sedation/anesthesia that occurs during dental procedures in Texas (estimated at 500,000 to 1,000,000 administrations per year below). Lacking this detailed information regarding all sedations done in the state limits the statistical conclusions that can be drawn.

However, the BRP was able to study case specific information of actual adverse events that occurred in Texas by reviewing de-identified data collected in board investigations that occurred between 2011 and 2016 involving patient mortalities and patient harm during or following dental treatment at which sedation/anesthesia was administered and evaluated the appropriate substance and application of emergency protocols related to the administration ofsedation/anesthesia. Many level 1, 2, and 3 sedation providers offer sedation on an episodic basis, ranging from only a few times a year to several cases per day. In contrast, most level 4 providers provide sedation/anesthesia multiple times per day. The OMS National Insurance Company (OMSNIC) estimates that the average AAOMS member in Texas performs 669 sedation/anesthetics per year. If each of the approximately 400 OMFS in Texas performs sedation/anesthesia at this rate, approximately 270,000 sedation/anesthetics are performed by Texas OMFS each year.

The American Society of Dentist Anesthesiologists includes 25 members in Texas [also level 4 providers]. Estimates from three of their members suggest that the average dentist anesthesioiogist in Texas treats 435 patients per year suggesting that 10,875 anesthetics are performed annually by Texas Dentist Anesthesiologists.

According to the ADA, there are 659 "professionally active" pediatric dentists in Texas. Anecdotal information among active pediatric dentists suggests that, on average, each of these practitioners performs approximately 200 mlnimal/moderate [mostly level 1 and 2) sedafcions each year. Based on these numbers, it is estimated that Texas Pediatric Dentists perform approximately 130,000 sedatians annually.

Between oral and maxillofacial surgeons, pediatric dentists and dentist anesthesiologists, approximately 411,000 sedation/anesthetics are performed annually in Texas. This group of dentists represents only 1084 of the approximately 7,502 sedation permit holders in the state. Estimating the number of sedation procedures completed by other dentists in Texas [primarily endodontists, periodontists and general dentists) is even more speculative than the estimates above, Likely, the total number of sedation procedures provided by all Texas dentists is somewhere between 500,000 and 1,000,000 annually. For the 5 years of data the BRP evaluated, we estimate between 2,500,000 and 5,000,000 sedation/anesthetic procedures were performed. Five deaths and one brain injury directly related Eo sedation/anesthesia occurred in that time period.

It is important to or keep in mind that patients receiving nitrous oxide/oxygen, level 1 minimal sedation, level 2 or 3 moderate sedation are either awake or easily roused by quiet voice or gentle touch throughout the sedation. Patients receiving level 4 deep sedation/general anesthesia are difficult or impossible to arouse.

By far, the most common proximate cause of morbidity and mortality in sedation is compromised ventilation. Most of the commonly used sedative drugs will depress ventilation in the sedated patient, sometimes to the point that breathing stops completely. When breathing stops or becomes severely limited, the practitioner must recognize this condition, diagnose the specific reason for the compromise and rectify the situation all within a very few minutes. If panic or indecision sets in, emergency equipment/medications are not immediately available, or there is a lack of familiarity with the equipment/medications, or there is a lack of a clearly understood emergency plan, the chance of a poor outcome rises dramatically. Efficient teamwork among the doctor(s) and support staff is essential to help ensure swift resolution of the situation.

8 The margin of safety is narrower in certain specific patient groups. In young children, this time period to manage the evolving crisis is dramatically reduced. Obese individuals also decompensate much faster than slender, healthy adults when breathing becomes compromised. Many medically compromising conditions also result in much more rapid decompensation if breathing stops. Young children and elderly/obese/medically-compromised patients pose extra sedation risks.

Almost without exception, when a mortality occurs associated with minimal or moderate sedation [levels 1, 2, 3), the practitioner allowed the patient to reach a level of deep sedation, where the patient became difficult or impossible to arouse by physical stimulation. It is only at this point that ventilation becomes significantly compromised. Minimal and moderate sedation patients that are kept at a minimal and moderate state do not develop airway compromise. Therefore the root cause of minimal/moderate sedation morbidity/mortality is essentially always that the doctor allowed the patient to become deeply sedated. Preventing the loss of responsiveness will prevent the vast majority of minimal/moderate sedation adverse outcomes. Accomplishing this single goal will have the greatest impact to reduce adverse outcomes in minimal/moderate sedation.

Current SBDE rules require that any patient considered for sedation/anesthesia be ...suitably evaluated prior to the start of any sedative procedure. and go on to state that, "A focused physical evaluation must be performed as deemed appropriate." Every event [major events and mishaps) in our series involving a high-risk patient also involved very poor pre-operative evaluation and limited or no physical evaluation.

Interestingly, among the cases BRP reviewed involving high-risk patients (both major events and mishaps), all of these patients had some sort of medical consultation done prior to the sedation procedure. Lack of medical consultation does not seem to be a factor in the evolution of the mishap or major event in our patients. Data from this patient series does not support the need to mandate enhanced medical consultation.

If the patient becomes more deeply sedated than permitted, current rules require the level 1, 2, and 3 provider to stop the dental procedure and return the patient to the intended level of sedation. The sedation provider is required to continually verify responsiveness and ventilation.

In addition, the current rules mandate that the sedation provider remain in the dental operatory until the patient has reached a defined level of recovery. While unverifiable, there is a strong suspicion that three of the six major events involved the sedation provider leaving the operatory for some period of time while the patient was still sedated, and the crisis developed/evolved during this time period. Leaving a sedated patient unattended is a major contributor to a patient becoming deeply sedated when only minimal or moderate sedation was intended. (The delivery of dental care is stimulating, and this helps keep minimally and moderately sedated patients responsive. If the dental care stops, the stimulation stops and the patient may become unintentionally deeply sedated and possibly stop breathing. If the patient has been left alone, there is no one available in the room to rescue the patient]

Current rules mandate that the dentist have emergency protocols/equipment/medications immediately available in the event of an emergency. Unfortunately, there was a pattern of poor emergency management in the BRP's case reviews: of the 12 cases reviewed where an emergency occurred in the office, emergency management by the dentist was judged to be poor or inadequate in 11 of those cases. The emergency failures observed in fche major events and mishaps involved cases where:

• emergency drugs were available but given in the wrong dose

• emergency ventilation equipment was available, but was used ineffectively

• emergency ventilation equipment was not available

• supplemental oxygen was available but not administered when indicated

• the provider was slow fco activate EMS - (this was the most common finding)

Long delays before activation of the emergency medical system (EMS - 911] were common, but not universal in our cases. For some doctors, making the decision to call 911 represents a personal failure and can become a major obstacle for the doctor to overcome. As the potentially liable individual in the office/ making the call £o summon assistance may, in the eyes of the doctor, open the door to unwanted investigation by a regulatory agency, such as the SBDE, and subsequent fear of punishment. Lack of hands on practice in crisis management likely also contributes to poor performance during an emergency.

For five of the six major events, the sedatlon provider received his/her training in a university/hospital facility versus a continuing education course. For the mishaps, the majority of the providers were trained in a university/hospital setting. The data does not support the concern that dentists trained outside of the university/hospital setting have more sedation accidents.

VII. Review and Analysis of Dental Rules and Laws in other States and Anesthesia Related Organizations

Dental Board of California: Pediatric Anesthesia Study, Draft July 2016 The Dental Board of California undertook a review of pediatric sedation/anesthesia incidents between 2010 and 2015. During this window of time, nine pediatric deaths were noted with various combinations of local anesthesia, sedafcion, and general anesthesia. Fifty-six additional pediatric hospitalizations were also described/ many of which were still being investigated. Limited details are present in the draft report 10 regarding the deaths. Attempting to determine the proximate and root cause of death from the report would be speculative. The draft report includes an extensive review of dental sedation/anesthesia rules/laws in United States. Of note, twenty-five states have special requirements for pediatric patients. Nine states have a separate permit for sedation of pediatric patients. States are not consistent in the way they define a child.

Comments pertinent to BRP s inquiry:

• The use of emergency checklists is recommended.

* A protocol for immediate access to back-up emergency services should be clearly outlined.

• Support staff should be specifically trained to be able to assist with a pediatric emergency.

• All team members should practice emergency protocols periodically.

* In moderate sedation, use of capnography or precordial stethoscope is strongly recommended (required if bidirectional verbal communication not possible].

• In deep sedation, use ofcapnography is required.

American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) - Parameters of Care: Clinical Practice Guidelines for Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (AAOMS ParCare 2012) - policy requires that, every five years, members undergo an on-site anesthesia office inspection (by AAOMS inspectors) to ensure proper monitoring and emergency equipment is present as well as to review emergency protocols.

California Dental Board in December 2016 adopted new sedation rules for the sedation of children:

• For deep sedation/general anesthesia-Iimitations to operator/anesthetist model of practice.

11 • For moderate sedation - capnography is a required monitor, sedation training equivalent to that of an accredited pediatric dentistry residency, at least one additional staff member trained in Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS), for children less than seven years, an additional staff member dedicated to patient monitoring is required.

• (California Legislature and the Governor must approve these rules in order for them to take effect)

October 2016, the American Dental Association (ADA) House of Delegates adopted a resolution to modify their Guidelines for the Use of Sedation and General Anesthesia in Dentistry. In part, this resolution includes a mandate for the use of capnography for patients receiving moderate sedation.

Texas State Board of Dental Examiners' Review of State Dental Boards, determined that 36 of the 50 state dental boards require some sort of dental office inspection, but the details regarding implementation and structure of these inspections vary widely from state to state. Literature regarding the effectiveness of office inspections is described in the next section.

June 2014, the Texas Medical Board adopted a plan to inspect medical offices that provide anesthesia services. [Texas Administrative Code 192.5}

TAG 192.6 allows MDs to request an inspection with a non-binding advisory [for a fee)

Sunset Staff Report 2016-2017: Texas Medical Board-comments regarding medical office inspections where anesthesia is administered. The board currently registers 2/482 physicians who provide office-based anesthesia. [Approximately 7000 Texas dentists have some type ofsedation permit)

Issue 2, key recommendation: "Authorize the board to establish a risk-based approach to its office-based anesthesia inspection, focusing on the length of time since equipment and procedures were last inspected.

Recommendation 2.9 "The board should focus its efforts on the inspection of equipment and office procedures instead of the registered physician to ensure that the inspectors do not waste time re-inspecting equipment approved and procedures." (BRP recommendation will emphasize assessing the competency of the provider if office inspections are implemented)

VIII. Review and Consideration of Scientific Literature

Haynes AB et al. A Surgical Safety Checklist to Reduce Morbidity and Mortality in a Global Population. New England Journal of Medicine 2009:360:491-9. This article presents the results from a global study to evaluate the effectiveness of a newly

12 created "checklist" to be used by medical surgical teams prior to the start of a surgical procedure.

Comments pertinent to BRP's inquiry:

• Use of the pre-operative checklist reduced surgicaily related deaths from 1.5% to 0.8% [highly statistically significant).

• Use of the checklist reduced the overall complication rate from 11.0% to 7.0% [highly statistically significant).

This article compares closed claims data for monitored anesthesia care (MAC) vs. general anesthesia. Data was abstracted from the Closed Claims database of the American Society of Anesthesiologists. Monitored

13 anesthesia care in the operating room is similar to level 3 moderate parenteral sedation, possibly becoming level 4 deep sedation at times.

Comment pertinent to BRP's inquiry;

• The most common cause of death/injury in MAC was associated with respiratory compromise - ventilation became inadequate during the procedure but was not adequately addressed or managed by the anesthesia provider.

Gaulton TG et al. Administrative issues to ensure safe anesthesia care in the office- based setting. Current Opinion in Anesthesiology 20l3;26:692-697. The authors in this article review the wide variations between states regarding medical office based anesthesia vs. national administrative based structures to regulate office-based anesthesia. They also comment on literature concerning office Inspection/ accreditation and the use of checklists.

Comments pertinent to BRP's inquiry:

• Regarding the effectiveness of office inspections/accreditation: little literature exists to improve outcomes in medicine where office based anesthesia is administered. The few studies available suggest a reduction in complications in accredited facilities, but these studies have also drawn crifcicism concerning methodological limitations. The authors note, "Although the decrease in adverse events did coincide with an increase in practice accreditation, it is impossible to conclude causality/'

• Regarding the use of checklists, the authors present multiple studies all showing that the use of checklists significantly reduce the incidence of complications. The authors were robust in their endorsement of the use of checklists, also noting that federal regulatory agencies such as Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services (CMS) require the use of surgical safety checklists in their accredited ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs).

IX. Conclusion and Recommendations

The reasons patients die or become permanently disabled in connection with dental care are quite varied. In the BRP case reviews, only a minority of deaths appeared directly related to mishandled sedation/anesthesia. Each of the six major events in this review included at least one significant failure on the part of the sedation provider to follow traditionally accepted core concepts of proper sedation/anesthesia technique. Failures included: poor pre-operative evaluation, poor technique, poor monitoring, and poor emergency management. In fact, all six of the major events included at least two major failures.

14 In the six major events studied by BRP, if current rules had been closely followed and the failures avoided, there likely would have been no sedation related event. Every patient would have been thoroughly evaluated pre-operatively for the planned sedation/anesthetic, drugs would have been conservatively and cautiously administered, and keeping patients closely monitored both electronically and personally by the dentist throughout the procedure. For the minimal and moderate sedation providers, patients would never have become unresponsive. If a truly unpredictable emergency event had occurred, the well-trained and practiced team would have worked together to efficiently manage the situation, including a rapid call to 911 when appropriate.

Unfortunately/ these events did occur and they appear related to failures by the sedation/anesthesia provider at a basic level; poor preparation, poor technique and poor performance when an emergency did occur. It is unclear why practitioners allow this to happen. Equally challenging is to know how to remedy the situation.

The challenge to this panel is to consider whether or not reasonable changes to laws, rules or enforcement will motivate dentists to not be lax, but be meticulously attentive to each step in the sedation/anesthesia process and maintain the highest standard of safety. Rules changes should not limit access to care and should create a regulatory structure to foster best practices in sedation/anesthesia.

The BRP discussed many possible recommendations and suggestions that might be helpful, some clinical in nature, some administrative.

Clinical recommendations:

The SBDE should have the authority to conduct inspections of dentists administering sedation/anesthesia. Thirty-six states have some type of sedation/anesthesia office provider inspection. The BRP suggests any inspections emphasize evaluation of the competency of the dentist.

The SBDE have the authority to review sedation records of level 2, 3 and 4 providers. Determination that the records did not meet the standard of care would be used as an indicator for an on-site office inspection. In the 19 major events/mishaps, there was a strong correlation between poor documentation and poor performance during an office emergency.

The SBDE mandate that sedation providers have written emergency protocols and that they be required to practice these protocols six times per year. Of the cases where an emergency occurred in the office, 11 of 13 mishaps were managed poorly. Literature clearly supports not only the use of emergency protocols [checklists] but also the use of pre-operative checklists. This should include a mechanism to encourage rapid activation of EMS when an emergency occurs and assure adequate access for EMS services.

15 The SBDE mandate that at least one support staff assisting with a sedation procedure (level 2, 3, 4) receive training in the recognition and management of sedation/anesthesia related emergencies. Literature clearly documents that emergency management improves as the entire team is trained as opposed to only the doctor.

The SBDE require level 2, 3, 4 providers who desire to sedate/anesthetize children under 8 years of age to document specific training in the management of this age group of patients.

The SBDE require level 2, 3, 4 providers who desire to sedate/anesthetize high- risk adults (73 years of age and older, ASA 3 or 4, obese - BMI greater than or equal to 30) to document specific training in the management of this group of patients. Each of the major events in this case series involved a child less than 8 years or a high-risk adult,

The SBDE mandate that offices where portable providers function have basic ventilation equipment on-site. Two of the six major events involved a portable provider who attempted to manage an emergency without ventilation equipment.

The SBDE mandate the use ofcapnography and a precordial stethoscope for level 2, 3 and 4 sedation. Of all the potential recommendations discussed by the BRP, this was the only one that did not garner almost immediate and unanimous support. The recommendation passed but with clear reservation by several members. Valid concerns were raised regarding applicability in level 2 and 3 sedation. Literature support for the use of capnography or a precordial stethoscope in deep sedation is well accepted, but is controversial in moderate sedation. Further consideration and study of the issue is needed by an ongoing committee of the board.

Administrative recommendations:

The SBDE continue to utilize an independent panel of expert sedation/anesthesia providers to advise the Board. This BRP was given only a short period of time to accomplish their assigned task. An ongoing group can continue to discuss and more fully evaluate Ideas based on evolving scientific literature that may allow improved patient safety.

The SBDE make public de-identified sedation related major events and mishaps. If other state dental boards would do the same, a much larger pool of information would be available with which to draw better conclusions.

The Texas Legislature make an effort to encourage other state legislatures to share de-identified sedation/anesthesia data publicly. If a majority of states would participate/ a much more scientifically valid pool of data would be available for study. This would include both accident data and non-accident data.

16 The SBDE collect data regarding sedations performed by Texas dentists. (non- accident data)

The SBDE create a system to evaluate and approve sedation/anesthesia continuing education programs.

The SBDE mandate that the sedation record for a dental procedure be a required part of the dental record, even if the sedation provider is a non-dentist.

Administrative suggestions:

The SBDE consider creation of a required online sedation/anesthesia rules examination.

The SBDE consider encouraging or mandating that dentists use a preoperative sedation checklist.

The SBDE consider including more detail in the SBDE rules regarding appropriate pre-operative evaluation and an acceptable sedation/anesthesia record.

17 Review of Texas, Florida and California Sedation Rules

TEXAS Texas Administrative code §110.1 - §110.18) identifies sedation and anesthesia rules as issued by the Texas State Board of Dental Examiners. The rules can be reviewed in their entirety here. The chapters cover rules on Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen Inhalation Sedation, Minimal Sedation, Moderate Sedation, and Deep Sedation or General Anesthesia. The rules are consistent for all levels of sedation regarding supervision. They indicate a dentist shall not supervise a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) performing a sedation procedure unless the dentist holds a permit for the sedation procedure being performed. The rules do not speak to the delegation of sedation to other professionals. The rules indicate the dentist must induce the nitrous oxide/oxygen inhalation or administer the sedation and must remain in the room with the patient during the maintenance of the sedation. The rules also state no permit holder shall have more than one person under general anesthesia at the same time exclusive of recovery. Staff requirements are also documented. For example, a dentist administering deep sedation must maintain under continuous direct supervision a minimum of two qualified dental auxiliary personnel who shall be capable of reasonably assisting in procedures, problems, and emergencies incident to the use of deep sedation and/or general anesthesia. The following are exerts from the rules themselves: 110.3 Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen Inhalation Sedation (b) Standard of Care Requirements. A dentist performing nitrous oxide/oxygen inhalation sedation shall maintain the minimum standard of care for anesthesia, and in addition shall: (4) not supervise a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) performing a nitrous oxide/oxygen inhalation sedation procedure unless the dentist holds a permit issued by the Board for the sedation procedure being performed. This provision and similar provisions in subsequent sections address dentists and are not intended to address the scope of practice of persons licensed by any other agency. (4) Monitoring. (A) The dentist must induce the nitrous oxide/oxygen inhalation sedation and must remain in the room with the patient during the maintenance of the sedation until pharmacologic and physiologic vital sign stability is established. (B) After pharmacologic and physiologic vital sign stability has been established, the dentist may delegate the monitoring of the nitrous oxide/oxygen inhalation sedation to a dental auxiliary who has been certified to monitor the administration of nitrous oxide/oxygen inhalation sedation by the State Board of Dental Examiners.

110.4 Minimal Sedation (b) Standard of Care Requirements. A dentist performing minimal sedation shall maintain the minimum standard of care for anesthesia, and in addition shall: (4) not supervise a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) performing a minimal sedation procedure unless the dentist holds a permit issued by the Board for the sedation procedure being performed. (4) Monitoring. The dentist administering the sedation must remain in the operatory room to monitor the patient until the patient meets the criteria for discharge to the recovery area. Once the patient meets the criteria for discharge to the recovery area, the dentist may delegate monitoring to a qualified dental auxiliary. 110.5 Moderate Sedation (b) Standard of Care Requirements. A dentist must maintain the minimum standard of care as outlined in §108.7 of this title and in addition shall: (2) maintain under continuous personal supervision auxiliary personnel who shall be capable of reasonably assisting in procedures, problems, and emergencies incident to the use of moderate sedation; (4) not supervise a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) performing a moderate sedation procedure unless the dentist holds a permit issued by the Board for the sedation procedure being performed. 110.6 Deep Sedation or General Anesthesia (b) Standard of Care Requirements. A dentist must maintain the minimum standard of care for the administration of anesthesia as outlined in §108.7 of this title and in addition shall: (2) maintain under continuous direct supervision a minimum of two qualified dental problems, and emergencies incident to the use of deep sedation and/or general anesthesia; (4) not supervise a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) performing a deep sedation/general anesthesia procedure unless the dentist holds a permit issued by the Board for the sedation procedure being performed.

110.10 Use of General Anesthetic Agents (c) No permit holder shall have more than one person under general anesthesia at the same time exclusive of recovery.

FLORIDA The Florida Board requires that dentists without an anesthesia permit receive training if delegating sedation. Rules can be found here. The Florida Board of Dentistry allows for physician anesthesiologist to practice anesthesia at any level regardless of the dentist’s level of training with some conditions in place. The Florida Board allows for a dentist to supervise a qualified anesthetist under direct supervision. Dental assistants may monitor Nitrous Oxide inhalation analgesia under the direct supervision of a dentist if conditions are met. The Florida Board also requires that three properly credentialed individuals be present. General anesthesia permit holders are able to perform sedation for dentists that do not have general anesthesia permits, but then both dentists are considered liable. The permitted dentist is also required to remain with the patient from onset until discharge.

64B5-14.0032 Itinerate/Mobile Anesthesia – Physician Anesthesiologist. The level of sedation is not restricted to the level of the permit held by the treating dentist. The level of sedation may be any level necessary for the safe and effective treatment of the patient. A dentist who holds a general anesthesia permit may treat their adult, pediatric, or special needs patients when a physician anesthesiologist performs the sedation services. The following conditions shall apply: (1) General Anesthesia Permit Holders: (a) The physician anesthesiologist performs the administration of the anesthesia and the physician anesthesiologist is responsible for the anesthesia procedure; (b) The dental treatment takes place in the general anesthesia permit holder’s board-inspected and board-registered dental office. (2) Pediatric Moderate Sedation Permit Holders: A pediatric dentist, as recognized by the American Dental Association, who holds a pediatric Moderate sedation permit may treat their pediatric or special needs dental patients when a physician anesthesiologist performs the sedation services. The following conditions shall apply: (a) The physician anesthesiologist performs the administration of the anesthesia, and the physician anesthesiologist is responsible for the anesthesia procedure; (b) The treatment takes place in the permit holder’s board-inspected and board-registered dental office; (c) The dental office meets the supply, equipment, and facility requirements as mandated in Rule 64B5-14.008, F.A.C.; 64B5-14.0034 Itinerate/Mobile Anesthesia – General Anesthesia Permit Holders A general anesthesia permit holder may perform sedation services for a dental patient of another general anesthesia permit holder or moderate or pediatric moderate permit holder in his or her office or another general anesthesia permit holder’s office. In this setting, the following shall apply: (a) The dental treatment may only be performed by a treating dentist who holds a valid anesthesia permit of any level; (b).The treating dentist and the anesthesia provider are both responsible for the adverse incident reporting under Rule 64B5-14.006, F.A.C. (2) Moderate and Pediatric moderate Sedation Permit Holder’s Office: A general anesthesia permit holder may perform sedation services for a dental patient of another dentist who holds a moderate sedation permit or a pediatric moderate sedation permit at the office of the treating dentist. In this setting, the following shall apply: (a) The dental treatment may only be performed by the moderate sedation or pediatric moderate sedation permit holder; (b) The general anesthesia permit holder may perform general anesthesia services once an additional board-inspection establishes that the office complies with the facility, equipment and supply requirements of Rule 64B5-14.008, F.A.C.; (c) The treating dentist and the anesthesia provider are both responsible for the adverse incident reporting requirements under Rule 64B5-14.006, F.A.C. 64B5-14.0036 Treatment of Sedated Patients by Dentists without an Anesthesia Permit. The provisions of this rule control the treatment of patients where an anesthesia permitted dentist sedates the dental patient in his or her board- inspected and board-registered dental office and a Florida licensed dentist without an anesthesia permit performs the dental treatment. (1) The permitted dentist shall perform the sedation in his or her out-patient dental office where the permitted dentist is registered to perform the anesthesia services; (2) The permitted dentist shall remain with the patient from the onset of the performance of the anesthesia until discharge of the patient; (3) The permitted dentist shall have no other patient induced with anesthesia or begin the performance of any other anesthesia services until the patient is discharged; (4) The treating dentist shall have taken a minimum of four hours of continuing education in airway management prior to treating any sedated patient. Two hours must be in didactic training in providing dentistry on sedated patients with compromised airways and two hours must include hands-on training in airway management of sedated patients. After the initial airway management course, the treating dentist shall continue to repeat a minimum of four hours in airway management every four years from the date the course was last taken by the dentist. The continuing education courses taken may be credited toward the mandatory thirty hours of continuing education required for licensure renewal. The requirement that a dentist must first have taken an initial airway management course before treating a sedated patient shall not take effect until March 1, 2014.

64B5-14.0038 Use of a Qualified Anesthetist. In an outpatient dental office, and pursuant to Section 466.002(2), F.S., a dentist may supervise a qualified anesthetist who is administering anesthetic for a dental procedure on a patient of the supervising dentist. The type of supervision required is direct supervision as defined in Section 466.003(8), F.S. In an outpatient dental office, the supervising dentist must have a valid permit for administering sedation to the level of sedation that the qualified anesthetist will be administering to the dental patient during the dental procedure. The dentist must maintain all office equipment and medical supplies required by this chapter to the level of the sedation that the qualified anesthetist will administer to the dental patient.

64B5-14.004 Additional Requirements. After the dentist has induced a patient and established the maintenance level, the assistant or hygienist may monitor the administration of the nitrous-oxide oxygen making only adjustments during this administration and turning it off at the completion of the dental procedure.

CALIFORNIA California rules are more difficult to maneuver, but can be found here. They do not appear to speak directly to supervision or delegation issues, but they do indicate a dentist may order the administration of sedation. The dentist must hold the same level of sedation permit. They also have a separate permit for the administration of sedation to children. This document states that CRNAs can only administer general anesthesia when supervised by a licensed physician or dentist in California.

1647.3. (a) A dentist who desires to administer or order the administration of conscious sedation, shall apply to the board on an application form prescribed by the board. The dentist shall submit an application fee and produce evidence showing that he or she has successfully completed a course of training in conscious sedation that meets the requirements of subdivision

The Attorney General also refused to find a supervision requirement for CRNAs. In its seminal opinion on CRNA scope of practice issued in 1984, the Attorney General determined that CRNAs may administer all forms of anesthesia on the sole condition that anesthesia be “ordered” by a physician, dentist or podiatrist acting within the scope of his or her license. 67 Ops. Att’y. Gen’l. 122, 139 (1984). In reaching this conclusion, the Attorney General overruled a 1972 opinion of its office—56 Ops. Att’y. Gen’l. 1—that held that CRNAs could only administer general anesthesia when supervised by a licensed physician or dentist. The 1984 AG opinion also included an exhaustive review of early case law that suggested physician supervision was required. Review of Other States

Arizona: No training or permit requirements if DDS is delegating sedation to a CRNA or anesthesiologist.

Idaho: Does not require a licensee to obtain a permit if they are outsourcing the sedation. We do have a rule (Use of Other Anesthesia Personnel) which requires the licensee to notify the board if they are using a CRNA, anesthesiologist, or another licensee with a sedation permit.

Louisiana: We have two kinds of sedation permits: personal and office. The personal permit is to confirm that the dentist has the correct post dental school training to give sedation. The office permit is to confirm that the office has the correct equipment, emergency drugs, etc. Both are needed if the dentist is giving the sedation. The dentist is not required to have a personal sedation permit if a CRNA or an anesthesiologist is giving the anesthesia. However, the dentist must have an office permit.

Minnesota: No training or permit requirements if DDS is delegating sedation to a CRNA or anesthesiologist.

Missouri: Requires the dentist to have the permit if the sedation/anesthesia provider is a CRNA. The logic is just as the distinguished gentleman from North Carolina explained, if the dentist is supervising the CRNA, then the dentist should have the appropriate level of training and certification to effectively supervise. The CRNA is an auxiliary and must be under some level of supervision from an MD or a dentist (even a collaborative practice agreement is a level of supervision). If the sedation/anesthesia provider is an MD Anesthesiologist, then the MD is responsible for the sedation, the dentist is not supervising the MD, therefore the dentist does not have to have the permit.

North Carolina: A dentist may “outsource” general anesthesia or sedation services to an MD anesthesiologist without obtaining a permit from the dental board. The MD anesthesiologist is responsible for all equipment, drugs, and inspections. The same is not true with a CRNA. State law requires a CRNA to work under the supervision an MD or dentist. Therefore, in order to supervise a CRNA offering sedation services, the dentist must have a permit appropriate for the level of sedation being offered. Example: if the CRNA is being used to provide moderate sedation, the DDS must have moderate sedation permit as well AND the CRNA may not offer sedation services beyond the level the DDS is allowed to provide. (No general anesthesia if the DDS has a permit for moderate sedation) When hiring a CRNA, the DDS is responsible for all equipment, drugs, permits, inspections, etc.

Oregon: A dentist who does not hold an anesthesia permit may perform dental procedures on a patient who receives anesthesia induced by a physician anesthesiologist licensed by the Oregon Board of Medical Examiners, another Oregon licensed dentist holding an appropriate anesthesia permit, or a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) licensed by the Oregon Board of Nursing. A dentist who performs dental procedures on a patient who receives anesthesia induced by a physician anesthesiologist, another dentist holding an anesthesia permit, a CRNA, or a dental hygienist who induces nitrous oxide sedation, shall maintain a current BLS for Healthcare Providers certificate, or its equivalent, and have the same personnel, facilities, equipment and drugs available during the procedure and during recovery as required of a dentist who has a permit for the level of anesthesia being provided.

Tennessee: requires the dentist to have a permit if a CRNA is administering but if another dentists or an anesthesiologists is administering then the dentist is not required to have a permit.

Guidelines for the Use of Sedation and General Anesthesia by Dentists

Adopted by the ADA House of Delegotes, October 2076

l. lntroduction

Theadministrationof local anesthesia,sedationandgeneral anesthesiaisanintegral partofdental practice. The American Dental Association is committed to the safe and effective use of these modalities by appropriately educated and trained dentists. The purpose of these guidelines is to assist dentists in the delivery of safe and effective sedation and anesthesia.

Dentists must comply with their state laws, rules and/or regulations when providing sedation and anesthesia and will only be subject to Section lll. Educational Requirements as required by those state laws, rules and/or regulationsi

Level of sedation is entirely independent of the route of administration. Moderate and deep sedation or general anesthesia may be achieved via any route of administration and thus an appropriately consistent level of training must be established.

For children, the American Dental Association supports the use of the American Academy of Pediatrics/American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry Guidelines for Monitoring and Management of Pediatric Patients During and After Sedation for Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedures.

ll. Definitions Methods of Anxiety and Pain Control minimal sedation (previously known as anxiolysis) - a minimally depressed level of consciousness, produced by a pharmacological method, that retains the patient's ability to independently and continuously maintain an airway and respond normolly to tactile stimulation and verbal command. Although cognitive function and coordination may be modestly impaired, ventilatory and cardiovascular functions are unaffected.l

Patients whose only response is reflex withdrawal from repeated painful stimuli would not be considered to be in a state of minimal sedation.

The following definitions apply to administration of minimal sedation: moximum recommended dose (MRD) - maximum FDA-recommended dose of a drug, as printed in FDA-approved labeling for unmonitored home use. dosing for minimol sedation vio the enterol route - minimal sedation may be achieved by the administration of a drug, either singly or in divided doses, by the enteral route to achieve the desired clinical effect, not to exceed the maximum recommended dose (MRD).

The administration of enteral drugs exceeding the maximum recommended dose during a single appointment is considered to be moderate sedation and the moderate sedation guidelines apply.

Nitrous oxide/oxygen when used in combination with sedative agent(s) may produce minimal, moderate, deep sedation or general anesthesia.

Page 1 of 12 lf more than one enteral drug is administered to achieve the desired sedation effect, with or without the concomitant use of nitrous oxide, the guidelines for moderate sedation must apply.

Note; In accord with this particular definition, the drug(s) and/or techniques used should carry a margin of safety wide enough never to render unintended loss of consciousness. The use of the MRD to guide dosing for minimal sedation is intended to create this margin of safety. moderate sedation - a drug-induced depression of consciousness during which patients respond purposefully to verbal commands, either alone or accompanied by light tactile stimulation. No interventions are required to maintain a patent airway, and spontaneous ventilation is adequate. Cardiovascular function is usually maintained.l

Note: ln accord with this particular definition, the drugs and/or techniques used should carry a margin of safety wide enough to render unintended loss of consciousness unlikely. Repeated dosing of an agent before the effects of previous dosing can be fully appreciated may result in a greater alteration of the state of consciousness than is the intent of the dentist. Further, a patient whose only response is reflex withdrawal from a painful stimulus is not considered to be in a state of moderate sedation.

The following definition applies to the administration of moderate or greater sedation:

titrotion - administration of incremental doses of an intravenous or inhalation drug until a desired effect is reached. Knowledge of each drug's time of onset, peak response and duration of action is essential to avoid over sedation. Although the concept of titration of a drug to effect is critical for patient safety, when the intent is moderate sedation one must know whether the previous dose has taken full effect before administering an additional drug increment. deep sedation - a drug-induced depression of consciousness during which patients cannot be easily aroused but respond purposefully following repeated or painful stimulation. The ability to independently maintain ventilatory function may be impaired. Patients may require assistance in maintaining a patent airway, and spontaneous ventilation may be inadequate. Cardiovascular function is usually maintained.l general anesthesia - a drug-induced loss of consciousness during which patients are not arousable, even by painful stimulation. The ability to independently maintain ventilatory function is often impaired. Patients often require assistance in maintaining a patent airway, and positive pressure ventilation may be required because of depressed spontaneous ventilation or drug-induced depression of neuromuscular function. Cardiovascular function may be impaired.

Because sedation and general anesthesia are a continuum, it is not always possible to predict how an individual patient will respond. Hence, practitioners intending to produce a given level of sedation should be able to diagnose and manage the physiologic consequences (rescue) for patients whose level of sedation becomes deeper than initially intended.l

For all levels of sedation, the qualified dentist must have the training, skills, drugs and equipment to identify and manage such an occurrence until either assistance arrives (emergency medical service) or the patient returns to the intended level of sedation without airway or cardiovascular complications.

Routes of Administration

enterol- any technique of administration in which the agent is absorbed through the gastrointestinal (Gl) tract or oral mucosa [i.e., oral, rectal, sublingual].

parenterol- a technique of administration in which the drug bypasses the gastrointestinal (Gl) tract [i.e., intramuscular (lM), intravenous (lV), intranasal (lN), submucosal (SM), subcutaneous (SC), intraosseous (lO)1.

Page 2 of 12 transdermol - a technique of administration in which the drug is administered by patch or iontophoresis through ski n.

tronsmucosol- a technique of administration in which the drug is administered across mucosa such as intranasal, sublingual, or rectal.

inholotion - a technique of administration in which a gaseous or volatile agent is introduced into the lungs and whose primary effect is due to absorption through the gas/blood interface.

Terms

anolgesio - the diminution or elimination of pain.

local onesthe-sro - the elimination of sensation, especially pain, in one part of the body by the topical application or regional injection of a drug. Note: Although the use of local anesthetics is the foundation of pain control in dentistry and has a long record of safety, dentists must be aware of the maximum, safe dosage limits for each patient. Large doses of local anesthetics in themselves may result in central nervous system depression, especially in combination with sedative agents.

quolified dentrst - a dentist providing sedation and anesthesia in compliance with their state rules and/or regulations.

operating dentist - dentist with primary responsibility for providing operative dental care while a qualified dentist or independently practicing qualified anesthesia healthcare provider administers minimal, moderate or deep sedation or general anesthesia.

competency - disploying speciol skill or knowledge derived from troining and experience.

must/sholl - indicates an imperative need and/or duty; an essential or indispensable item; mandatory.

should - indicates the recommended manner to obtain the standard; highly desirable.

moy - indicates freedom or liberty to follow a reasonable alternative.

continuol - repeated regularly and frequently in a steady succession.

continuaus - prolonged without any interruption at any time.

time-oriented onesthesia record - documentation at appropriate time intervals of drugs, doses and physiologic data obtained during patient monitoring.

immediotely ovailoble - on site in the facility and available for immediate use.

lV. Clinical Guidelines A. Minimal sedation

1. Patient History and Evaluation

Patients considered for minimal sedation must be suitably evaluated prior to the start of any sedative procedure. ln healthy or medically stable individuals (ASA l, ll) this should consist of a review of their current medical history and medication use. In addition, patients with significant medical considerations (ASA lll, lV) may require consultation with their primary care physician or consulting medical specialist.

2. Pre-Operative Evaluation and Preparation

The patient, parent, legal guardian or care giver must be advised regarding the procedure associated with the delivery of any sedative agents and informed consent for the proposed sedation must be obtained. Determination of adequate oxygen supply and equipment necessary to deliver oxygen under positive pressure must be completed. a An appropriate focused physical evaluation should be performed. a Baseline vital signs including body weight, height, blood pressure, pulse rate, and respiration rate must be obtained unless invalidated by the nature of the patient, procedure or equipment. Body temperature should be measured when clinically indicated. a Preoperative dietary restrictions must be considered based on the sedative technique prescribed. a Pre-operative verbal and written instructions must be given to the patient, parent, escort, legal guardian or care giver.

3. Personnel and Equipment Requirements

Person nel: r At least one additional person trained in Basic Life Support for Healthcare Providers must be present in addition to the dentist.

Equipment:

A positive-pressure oxygen delivery system suitable for the patient being treated must be immediately available. Documentation of compliance with manufacturers' recommended maintenance of monitors, anesthesia delivery systems, and other anesthesia-related equipment should be maintained.

Page 6 of 12 4. Monitoring and Documentation

Monitoring: A dentist, or at the dentist's direction, an appropriately trained individual, must remain in the operatory during active dental treatment to monitor the patient continuously until the patient meets the criteria for discharge to the recovery area. The appropriately trained individual must be familiar with monitoring techniques and equipment. Monitoring must include:

Consciousness: o Level of sedation (e.g., responsiveness to verbal commands) must be continually assessed.

Oxygenation:

. Oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry may be clinically useful and should be considered.

Ventilation:

o The dentist and/or appropriately trained individual must observe chest excursions. o The dentist andlor appropriately trained individual must verify respirations.

Circulation: o Blood pressure and heart rate should be evaluated pre-operatively, post-operatively and intraoperatively as necessary (unless the patient is unable to tolerate such monitoring).

Documentation: An appropriate sedative record must be maintained, including the names of all drugs administered, time administered and route of administration, including local anesthetics, dosages, and monitored physiological parameters.

5. Recovery and Discharge

. Oxygen and suction equipment must be immediately available if a separate recovery area is utilized. r The qualified dentist or appropriately trained clinical staff must monitor the patient during recovery until the patient is ready for discharge by the dentist. o The qualified dentist must determine and document that level of consciousness, oxygenation, ventilation and circulation are satisfactory prior to discharge. o Post-operative verbal and written instructions must be given to the patient, parent, escort, legal guardian or care giver.

6. Emergency Management

r lf a patient enters a deeper level of sedation than the dentist is qualified to provide, the dentist must stop the dental procedure until the patient returns is returned to the intended level of sedation. e The qualified dentist is responsible for the sedative management, adequacy of the facility and staff, diagnosis and treatment of emergencies related to the administration of minimal sedation and providing the equipment and protocols for patient rescue.

6. Special Needs Patients

Because many dental patients undergoing deep sedation or general anesthesia are mentally and/or physically challenged, it is not always possible to have a comprehensive physical examination or appropriate laboratory tests prior to administering care. When these situations occur, the dentist responsible for administering the deep sedation or general anesthesia should document the reasons preventing the recommended preoperative management.

ln selected circumstances, deep sedation or general anesthesia may be utilized without establishing an indwelling intravenous line. These selected circumstances may include very brief procedures or periods of time, which, for example, may occur in some patients; or the establishment of intravenous access after deep sedation or general anesthesia has been induced because of poor patient cooperation.

7. Emergency Management

The qualified dentist is responsible for sedative/anesthetic management, adequacy of the facility and staff, diagnosis and treatment of emergencies related to the administration of deep sedation or general anesthesia and providing the equipment, drugs and protocols for patient rescue.

It is beyond the scope of this document to specify which drugs are appropriate for which procedures; however, the selection of the fewest number of FIGURE 2 drugs and matching drug selection to Suggested management of laryngospasm. the type and goals of the procedure are essential for safe practice. For example, analgesic medications, such as opioids or ketamine, are indicated for painful procedures. For nonpainful procedures, such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), sedatives/ hypnotics are preferred. When both sedation and analgesia are desirable (eg, fracture reduction), either single agents with analgesic/sedative properties or combination regimens are commonly used. Anxiolysis and amnesia are additional goals that should be considered in the selection of agents for particular patients. However, the potential for an adverse outcome may be increased when 2 or more sedating medications are administered.62, 127, 136, 173, 235 Recently, there has been renewed interest in noninvasive routes of medication administration, including intranasal and inhaled routes (eg, nitrous oxide; see below).236 Knowledge of each drug’s time of onset, peak response, and duration FIGURE 3 of action is important (eg, the Suggested management of apnea. peak electroencephalogram [EEG] effect of intravenous midazolam GOALS OF SEDATION procedures are as follows: (1) occurs at ∼4.8 minutes, compared to guard the patient’s safety and with that of diazepam at ∼1.6 The goals of sedation in the pediatric welfare; (2) to minimize physical minutes237–239).

Doses of amides should be decreased by 30% in infants younger than 6 mo. When lidocaine is being administered intravascularly (eg, during intravenous regional anesthesia), the dose should be decreased to 3 to 5 mg/kg; long-acting local anesthetic agents should not be used for intravenous regional anesthesia. b Duration of action is dependent on concentration, total dose, and site of administration; use of epinephrine; and the patient’s age. c Levobupivacaine is not available in the United States. d Use in pediatric patients under 4 years of age is not recommended.
