Exploring Conscious Sedation in Pediatric Oral Surgery: A Non-Randomized Clinical Trial on Safety and Efficacy

Conscious sedation is a safe and effective approach, maintaining stable vital parameters. The increase in diastolic pressure in Group B may be explained by preexisting anxiety and benzodiazepine pharmacodynamics. However, the absence of randomization may have influenced group allocation and outcome interpretation. Given the small sample size and the wide age range of the participants, further studies with larger and more homogeneous populations are necessary to refine and validate pediatric sedation protocols.
