IV Sedation is usually administered pre-op to an anxious patient, or post-op for the same reasons. IV sedation is most frequently piggy-backed into an existing IV. The reason for this is, contrary to TV, finding a vein with a combative patient is difficult and dangerous. IV's are hooked up to trauma patients when necessary, but rarely for the sole reason of administering IV sedatives.
