A collaborative team approach is necessary for most procedures. Healthcare providers must assist and understand each other’s roles in the procedure. Invasive procedures (e.g., lumbar punctures, cystoscopy) place patients at greater risk for complications and usually require closer monitoring during the test. Frequently, administration of intravenous (IV) sedation and other drugs is part of the procedure. Astute ongoing observation of the patient and critical thinking and quick decision-making skills during intense situations are requisites for healthcare providers in these settings.
