The phrase "allow sedation" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in medical or clinical contexts when discussing the permission or provision of sedation for a patient.
Example: "Before the procedure, the doctor will discuss whether to allow sedation for the patient's comfort."
Alternatives: "permit sedation" or "authorize sedation".
The 50% gas mix allows sedation (inhibition of gag reflex and involuntary movements) and analgesia (covering the pain of anesthetic injections).
Doctors put Mr. Peres back to sleep to give his brain a chance to recover, and they will transfer him to the neurosurgical intensive care unit at Chaim Sheba Medical Center at Tel HaShomer, but they will allow the sedation to wear off again briefly on Wednesday afternoon to test his reactions.
Recently, Handlogten and colleagues revealed that dexmedetomidine infusion allowed adequate sedation for an awake neurosurgical procedure in a pregnant patient without causing any adverse effects [9].
Spontaneous ventilation can be maintained easily in neonates and small children on HFOV without increasing the work of breathing [ 31, 32], thus allowing reduced sedation.
Seals were sedated with an intramuscular injection of Zoletil (1.2 mg/kg Forte Vet zolazepam/tiletamine; 100 mg/ml, Virbac, Carros Cedex, France) and a central venous catheter inserted into the extradural intravertebral vein, allowing supplementary sedation (0.2 0.3 mg/kg).
Children may require sedation to allow imaging with consequent sedation-associated risks [ 5, 6].
They do, however, suggest the use of nonbenzodiazepine sedation regimens, including dexmedetomidine, that allow for targeting light sedation.
Since then, many studies have shown that protocols of sedation which allow patients to be awake or easily arousable are associated with fewer days on mechanical ventilation and in the ICU [8, 18].
Adult and paediatric data suggest that goal-directed sedation algorithms allow a more appropriate adaptation of the treatment to the patient's need and permit a reduction in the duration of mechanical ventilation.
