This multi-specialty represented conference is intended for physicians (anesthesia, dental, dental anesthesiology, emergency medicine, gastroenterology, hospital medicine, internal medicine, oncology, pediatrics, radiology) nurses, nurse practitioners, nurse anesthetists and administrators interested in sedation. Our faculty is from the United States and abroad, and represents a collection of national and internationally-recognized experts. This conference attracts a diverse group of national and international attendees, all of whom share an interest in pediatric sedation. At the suggestion of past attendees, we will again offer expanded didactic sessions which will contain multiple, concurrently-run, focused, personalized, specialized afternoon tracks featuring pertinent and timely topics of interests in the field of hospital medicine, pediatric dentistry and nursing. In addition, other afternoon tracks will feature in-depth expansion of topics which include dexmedetomidine, sedation strategies across specialties, emergency medicine, nursing, new sedatives/innovation, shared experiences across the globe, as well as a provocative look at the arts and science of sedation.

Our didactics will continue to include large general sessions as well as an offering of small, interactive, specialty and topic directed round-table discussions with the faculty and attendees.
