    Interesting, I did not know that, thanks. Still a horrible event, but perhaps not as medically unsound as I initially assumed. I am not saying that sedation was the right call

      It absolutely was not the right call. In the ER, we use stuff like Haldol for combative patients, it’s substantially less dangerous for the patient, but it takes a couple minutes to kick in.
