  In one of the TV interviews a cave rescuer talked about a rescue where an inexperienced diver was restrained whilst being brought out of a tunnel. Given the distances involved here it would seem unlikely they would sedate them. EDIT: "Mr [Peter] Dennis also said he thought the boys would have been lightly sedated by a doctor who joined them in the chamber, to prevent them from panicking during the journey out."
