I am late coming to this thread about sedation, but as I learned some of my trade at Phil Belsham's knee (and other low joints) I can say
that the gentle technique as propounded by him, talking the joint back together is absolutely superb. However, I don't think it is the first
technique to be taught to the tyro. The method, yes. However the SHO should always use sedation to assist in the first few. I have made
a powerpoint presentation to demonstrate the technique. It is rather huge is it includes full-motion video and thus isn't really suitable for
sending over the net.
Best wishes,
Rowley Cottingham
