Automation of Bedside Sedation Process

Starting 4/3/2018, the bedside sedation process will become electronic

The following plans will be available for your use and should be placed prior to using sedation for a procedure at the bedside.

You will notice the plans have four phases.  The Provider will ONLY complete the FIRST THREE phases. (Pre, Intra, Post-Procedure).  Nursing will complete the Fourth phase.

The first order is the Sedation History and Physical Update Order and this order has a form attached to it that the physician will complete after signing the powerplans.

Once the plan is signed by you, the following form will appear.  This form must be completed by the physician. 

There will also be two new PowerNote Templates available for use with this process.

  1. UMC Pediatric Sedation Brief H&P (This note is specifically used for sedations done in PICU)
  2. UMC Procedural Sedation Note (this will also be available to Insert as a Sentence in any existing note that has a Procedure Paragraph (Ex: Central line Procedure Note)
