The patient is receiving Nitrous Oxide Oxygen sedation during a procedure. You ask the patient if they are doing all right and get no response, but the patient seems to be breathing without any trouble. Is this a concern?
No. It's not a concern, as a patient who is unresponsive on Nitrous Oxide Oxygen is easier to work on than a patient who is responsive.
