A protocol of no sedation for critically ill patients receiving mechanical ventilation: a randomised trial
Publikation: Bidrag til tidsskrift › Tidsskriftartikel › fagfællebedømt
Standard treatment of critically ill patients undergoing mechanical ventilation is continuous sedation. Daily interruption of sedation has a beneficial effect, and in the general intesive care unit of Odense University Hospital, Denmark, standard practice is a protocol of no sedation. We aimed to establish whether duration of mechanical ventilation could be reduced with a protocol of no sedation versus daily interruption of sedation.
