Figure 1 From Liberating Icu Patients From Deep Sedation And Mechanical Delirium occurs in the vast majority of icu patients at some point during their icu stay and is a risk factor for prolonged mechanical ventilation, increased icu and hospital lengths of stay (los), increased healthcare costs, and increased hospital mortality in these patients. pain, agitation, and delirium (pad) occur frequently in critically ill patients. severe pain is the most common memory. For the majority of patients undergoing mechanical ventilation in an icu, an appropriate target is a score of 3 to 4 on the riker sedation–agitation scale (which ranges from 1 to 7, with scores.

Sedation In Critically Ill Patients Will The Vaporiser Replace The Deep sedation (ds) was an independent predictor of long term mortality and time to extubation in mechanically ventilated icu patients. although early deep sedation and the cumulative dose of sedative agents were not associated with time to delirium after 48 h, patients with lighter sedation had a lower presence of delirium at 48 h, and also. The 2013 clinical practice guidelines for the management of pain, agitation in icu patients also suggest light sedation for critically ill, mechanically ventilated patients. 6 excessive sedation even for less than 48 hours can increase morbidity and mortality as shown in a prospective cohort study done on critically ill patients. 13. Dexmedetomidine produces sedation while maintaining a degree of arousability and may reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation and delirium among patients in the intensive care unit (icu). Sedation in icu patients has evolved a lot in the last 20 years. decreasing the use of benzodiazepines and replacing them by propofol and or dexmedetomidine has been proposed to try to decrease post icu delirium. it permits us to daily evaluate patients to be able to wean them from mechanical ventilation.
