AB Sedation  for  patients  undergoing  procedures  in  the  cardiac  catheterization  laboratory  (CCL)  can  be  managed  by  the  primary  physician  with  nursing  staff  or  by  a  dedicated  anesthesiology  team.  The  choice  of  sedation  and/or  anesthetic  techniques  is  dependent  on  institutional  policies,  patient  and  physician  preference,  and  the  type  of  procedure  being  performed.  This  discussion  will  focus  on  interventional  procedures  in  the  CCL  and  not  hybrid  operating  room  procedures  that  add  an  additional  layer  of  complexity  and  more  often  than  not  will  be  staffed  with  an  anesthesia  team.
