Practices in sedation, analgesia, mobilization, delirium, and sleep deprivation in adult intensive care units (SAMDS-ICU): an international survey before and during the COVID-19 pandemic

Mariana Luz et al.

Summary: This survey investigated the current practices of sedation, analgesia, and delirium management in adult intensive care units (ICUs) before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study found that most practices remained comparable before and during the pandemic, with the intensive care specialty being associated with best practices during the pandemic.

Pain and sedation management and monitoring in pediatric intensive care units across Europe: an ESPNIC survey

Daverio Marco et al.

Summary: This survey explores the current practices of pain and sedation management and monitoring in European pediatric intensive care units (PICUs). The results show significant variations in drug choices, dosing, and assessment strategies. Further research and evidence-based guidelines are needed to optimize drug dosing and improve analgosedation assessment.

Providing Evidence-Based Care, Day and Night: A Quality Improvement Initiative to Improve Intensive Care Unit Patient Sleep Quality

Stuart L. Douglas et al.

Summary: The study found that interventions to promote sleep quality in the ICU did not significantly improve patient sleep quality, with key barriers identified as nurse stigma and lack of physician engagement. Sleep quality was better among non-delirious patients compared to delirious patients.

A gap existed between physicians' perceptions and performance of pain, agitation-sedation and delirium assessments in Chinese intensive care units

Kai Chen et al.

Summary: The study revealed suboptimal prevalence of pain, agitation-sedation and delirium assessments in Chinese ICUs, highlighting a gap between physicians' perceptions and actual clinical practice. Further quality improvement projects are recommended to optimize the care practices in pain, agitation-sedation and delirium management in China.

Use of volatile agents for sedation in the intensive care unit: A national survey in France

Raiko Blondonnet et al.

Summary: The survey found that most ICU medical directors in France were knowledgeable about inhaled ICU sedation, but its actual use was limited. The main reasons for not using inhaled ICU sedation were device availability, lack of medical interest, lack of familiarity or knowledge about the technique, and elevated cost. Despite this, the majority of respondents were satisfied with the use of inhaled sedation and viewed it as a seductive alternative to intravenous sedation.

Inconsistent relationship between depth of sedation and intensive care outcome: systematic review and meta-analysis

Leanne M. Aitken et al.

Summary: The evidence of benefit from lighter sedation is limited, with inconsistency between observational and randomised studies. Positive effects were mainly from low quality evidence in observational studies, possibly due to bias and confounding factors. Lighter sedation may have a certain improvement on duration of mechanical ventilation, time in intensive care and hospital, and ventilator-associated pneumonia, but no significant effects on intensive care mortality, hospital mortality, delirium, or adverse events.

Tracheostomy management in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: an International Multicenter Retrospective Study

Matthieu Schmidt et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the complications, sedative and analgesic use, and level of consciousness in patients undergoing tracheostomy during or after ECMO treatment. The results showed a higher risk of local bleeding in patients who underwent tracheostomy during ECMO, while patients who underwent tracheostomy after ECMO decannulation had a more rapid decrease in sedative consumption and a significant improvement in consciousness levels.
