Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Continuous transcutaneous carbon dioxide measurements will be recorded from patients undergoing procedures with conscious sedation, starting before conscious sedation is induced (for measurement of baseline transcutaneous carbon dioxide) and ceasing at the end of the procedure. These measurement will not be available for clinicians monitoring patients (nurses and cardiologists) and will be used purely for analysis.

Statistical methods / analysis
Descriptive statistics will be used to calculate mean, standard deviation (or median and interquartile range) and 95% confidence intervals of pre-sedation TcCO2 as well as changes in TcCO2 that occur after sedation is administered. Multiple regression will be used to identify associations between ventilation status (measured as the mean tcCO2 whilst OAA/S score 4 or less) and participant and procedural characteristics.
Sample size considerations
A formal sample size calculation is not required for the primary outcome of this study, which is to describe changes in TcCO2 during sedation. It is generally recommended that 10 observations per variable are required for multivariate statistical analysis. We plan to recruit a sample of at least 100 participants in order to examine associations between ten pre-selected variables and post-sedation mean TcCO2 levels. The variables include: age, gender, BMI, sleep apnoea/obesity hypoventilation syndrome status, presence of COPD, smoking status, history of benzodiazepine/opiod use, total dose of opioids and total dose of midazolam, supplemental oxygen use and clinician interventions to support ventilation (realigning airway, verbal/physical stimulation to increase level of consciousness).
