Abstract

Most newly diagnosed pediatric cancer patients reside in LMICs. These countries face challenges in providing quality treatment, particularly with procedures requiring stillness or causing pain. Conscious sedation (CS) is underutilized in LMICs due, causing treatment delays and adverse outcomes. Advocacy for CS teams, training, and policy support is essential to improve outcomes.
