Competencies Shared Between Critical and General Care of Neonatal or Pediatric Patients

A 4-year-old received oral midazolam before a dental procedure done under local anesthesia; no opioid or other sedative was given. Thirty minutes later she responds only to firm stimulation, her respiratory rate is 8/min with shallow breaths, her pupils are mid-sized and reactive, and capnography shows a PetCO2 of 58 mm Hg. Chin lift and supplemental oxygen raise her SpO2 from 88% to 96%, but her breathing stays slow. Which reversal agent should the respiratory therapist anticipate?
