Because the AV node takes on the role of a very important delay in the cardiac conduction system. Without this delay, the atria and ventricles would contract at the same time.

<h3>Cardiac conduction system</h3>

The conduction system of the heart sends electrical signals, usually generated by the sinus nodes, causing the heart muscle to contract. Pacemaker signals originating from the sinus node travel through the right atrium to the atrioventricular (AV) along the bundle of His and through branches of the bundle, causing myocardial contraction. This signal first stimulates contraction of the right and left atria then flows to the right and left ventricles. That electric current then allows blood to be pumped throughout the body.

What is clear here is that sedation was provided by a physician or other qualified health care professional. Read at the CPT Coding Changes For Moderate Sedation in 2017. It states there will be several codes for moderate sedation. Your statement of the case is not complete, as age is important. The codes for moderate sedation is 99151 to 99157.
