Pre-medication for intubation and drugs for sedation/analgesia during ventilation
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Traditionally, intubation of newborn infants was done without sedation or muscle relaxation. This practice reflected uncertainty about the effects of these drugs in babies. Over recent years, there has been a growing awareness of the pain and physiological stress that cold intubation places on a baby and so it has become a less common practice. Despite this, there is still much we don't know about the effects of these drugs in babies. Does sedation/ muscle relaxation help intubation?

Background: Some patients with respiratory failure who are in need of mechanical ventilation require sedation to tolerate the inserted endotracheal tube (ETT) and other unpleasant stimuli. While a light sedation is satisfactory, deep sedation can interfere with the weaning process of patient from mechanical ventilator. Nevertheless, so far, the ideal regimen for sedatives and analgesics has not...
