Original Source: Sedation Management in Pediatric Patients Supported on Mechanical Ventilation
The purpose of this two-year project is to pilot test an intervention to change sedation management in pediatric patients supported on mechanical ventilation for acute respiratory failure in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). While ensuring patient comfort is an integral part of pediatric critical care, analgesic and sedative use in this patient population is associated with injury; specifically, comfort medications may depress spontaneous ventilation and prolong the dur...
