Report
Conscious sedation is a type of anesthesia that makes the patient feel very relaxed. It reduces painful sensations and the awareness of pain. It is not intended to put the patient to sleep, and will wear off quickly after a procedure. Conscious sedation is commonly used for simple procedures that can be completed quickly.

Report
This injection procedure is performed to treat the pain of an inflamed nerve in your spine. If you have a herniated disc, spinal stenosis, or some other problem that is pressing on a nerve, it may help you. Steroid medication can reduce the swelling and inflammation caused by spinal conditions. The steroid medication is injected into the epidural space, which is the space around the inflamed nerve.
