Successful procedural sedation is defined as achieving target sedation level (Ramsay Sedation Scale \[RSS\] level 2 or 3) by the start of surgery without need for rescue sedation medication, no requirement for intraoperative sedation medication, and able to complete the surgery (i.e. procedural sedation responder). The Ramsay Sedation Scale (RSS) was the first scale to be defined for the sedated participants and was designed as a test of arousability. The Ramsay Scale provides three levels of 'awake' states (score 1-3) and three levels of 'asleep' states (score 4-6). A score of 2 (participant is cooperative, orientated, and tranquil) best fits an optimum sedation level based on the criteria of calm, comfortable, communicative, and cooperative participants.

The Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) is a segmented numeric version of the visual analog scale (VAS) in which a respondent selects a whole number (0-10 integers) that best reflects the intensity of his/her pain. The 11-point numeric scale ranges from '0' representing one pain extreme (e.g. "no pain") to '10' representing the other pain extreme (e.g. "pain as bad as you can imagine" or "worst pain imaginable")
