A suggested curriculum for teaching conscious sedation in advanced general practice programs: GPR and AEGD. American Association of Hospital Dentists.

Previously published national guidelines related to the teaching and performance of conscious sedation in dentistry have not included guidance in this area for program directors of General Practice Residency and Advanced Education in General Dentistry Programs. A suggested curriculum is presented here for use by program directors of such programs who wish to design training experiences in their own programs or as a reference for program directors who wish to compare their programs with experiences provided in other locations. Guidelines are provided for facilities, equipment, personnel, records and preparation necessary to perform conscious sedation procedures, as well as goals, objectives, and evaluation methodology for training residents in conscious sedation.
