Volatile anaesthetics for analgesia and sedation in patients after abdominal surgery in ICU
نویسندگان
چکیده
Methods 37 patients on prolonged mechanical ventilation (20 males, 17 females) after abdominal surgery were followed up in ICU. The sedation level was evaluated with RASS scale and auditory evoked potentials (AEP), analgesia with the analgesia/nociceptive index (ANI), based on spectral analysis of RR intervals [2], hemodynamic parameters by impedance plethysmography. Sedation was performed by AnaConDa (anaesthetic conserving device) with sevoflurane. Mean duration of sedation was 5 hours. Statistical analysis was performed by Wilcoxon matching pairs test. Data are presented as mean and standard deviation.
