Brief Summary:
The purpose of the present study is to determine whether administration of sedation according to a strategy including a bundle of measures to prevent oversedation is associated with a reduction in mortality of intensive care unit patients requiring mechanical ventilation, compared to administration of sedation according to usual practices.
| Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
|---|---|---|
| ICU Patients Requiring Invasive Mechanical Ventilation | Procedure: Clinical Procedure to Prevent Oversedation Procedure: Usual sedation practice | Not Applicable |
In intensive care unit (ICU) patients receiving mechanical ventilation (MV), potent hypnotics and morphinics are frequently administered to increase synchrony with the ventilator, control agitation and decrease discomfort and pain due to the tracheal tube, bed ridding, painful condition and diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.
However, administration sedatives or morphinics is often excessive and may result in deep and prolonged alteration of consciousness, delayed weaning from MV and prolonged MV. and exposes the patient to a higher risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia, ICU delirium and neuromuscular weakness at awakening.
The present randomized multicenter study will compare the day-90 mortality of a group of patients receiving conventional sedation to the mortality of a group of patients receiving sedation administered according to an algorithm aimed to prevent oversedation to the mortality. The algorithm is built on a graduate therapeutic response to increasingly intense symptoms of discomfort, pain, ventilator dyssynchrony and agitation, and includes the use of analgesics, non hypnotic benzodiazepines, neuroleptics, repeated intravenous (IV) boluses of hypnotics and short duration (6 hours) IV hypnotic infusions.

Experimental: Prevention of oversedation group
In this arm sedation and analgesia will be administered according to a bundle of measures aimed at limiting oversedation, including repeated assessment of patients needs and graduate therapeutic response to control pain, discomfort, poor synchrony with the ventilator and agitation. The therapeutic options include non hypnotic anxiolytics, repeated intravenous (IV) hypnotics boluses, short-duration (6 hours) IV hypnotics infusion and round the clock IV hypnotics infusion.

Procedure: Clinical Procedure to Prevent Oversedation
Sedation and analgesia will be administered according to a bundle of measures aimed at limiting oversedation, including repeated assessment of patients needs and graduate therapeutic response to control pain, discomfort, poor synchrony with the ventilator and agitation. The therapeutic options include non hypnotic anxiolytics, repeated IV hypnotics boluses, short-duration (6 hours) IV hypnotics infusion and round the clock IV hypnotics infusion. |

Procedure: Usual sedation practice
Sedation and analgesia will be administered according to the usual practices in each participating center. |
