The levels of sedation can be categorized into four main types:
Minimal Sedation: The child is relaxed but awake and can respond to verbal commands. Moderate Sedation: The child is more relaxed and may sleep but can be awakened with gentle stimulation. Deep Sedation: The child is asleep and not easily awakened but can respond to repeated or painful stimulation. General Anesthesia: The child is completely unconscious and does not respond to any stimulation.
