1 PACT Module Sedation Intensive Care Training Program Radboud University Medical Centre Nijmegen

2 Important concepts Prolonged use of sedatives associated with significant side effects - drug holiday & sedation scales The concept op analgosedation Dexmedetomidine and delirium Sleep deprivation

3 The four step model of sedation What is the main problem? Give the medication with the ideal profile Is sedation the best solution? How long is sedation necessary?

4 Renal failure Midazolam Lorazepam =/ Morphine Fentanyl =/ Remifentanyl = Propofol =/ Dexmedetomidine Fospropofol

5 Propylene glycol toxicity 19% of patients receiving iv diazepam or lorazepam Clinical deterioration, unexplained metabolic acidosis with increased anion gap and hyperosmolality, lactic acidosis, hypotension Treatment with alcohol infusion combined with hemodialysis or 4-methylpyrazole Wilson KC. Chest 2005;128:

12 Awakening and Breathing Controlled trial MC (N = 4) RCT comparing daily SAT + SBT versus patient-targeted sedation + SBT Adult patients 18 years old with MV > 12 hours Excluded if admitted after CPR, MV > 2 weeks, moribund or profound neurological deficit Primary outcome: ventilator-free-days (D28) Girard TD.

14 Awakening and Breathing Controlled trial No baseline differences between groups SAT/SBT group had 3.1 ( ) more ventilator-free days compared to control group They were discharged 4.3 days earlier from the hospital and had a decreased 1 year mortality rate (44 versus 58%) Girard TD. Lancet 2008;371:

15 Awakening and Breathing Controlled trial Similar duration of delirium but 1 day less coma in SAT/SBT group Increased incidence of self-extubation (10 versus 4%) but similar rate for requiring reintubation Tendency to decreased tracheostomy (13 versus 20%, p = 0.06) Girard TD. Lancet 2008;371:

35 Sleep disturbances in the ICU Prolonged sleep latencies Sleep fragmentation and frequent arousals Decreased sleep efficiency Predominance of stage 1 & 2 NREM sleep Decreased or absent stage 3 & 4 NREM and REM sleep

36 Consequences Impaired immune function and host defense Protein catabolism with negative nitrogen balance Increased psychological disturbances and decrease in quality of life measures

37 Impaired immune function Infection results in increase in amplitude or intensity of slow-wave NREM sleep Sleep deprivation results in decreased PMN and lymphocyte counts, dysfunctional NK cells and PMN s and impaired antigen specific defenses

38 Sleep deprivation in ICU Lightning practices Patient care activities Diagnostic procedures Noise Stress Environmental factors Sleep deprivation Pathophysiological factors Sedatives & analgesics Psychosis Organ dysfunction Inflammatory response Pain

39 Ventilator mode and sleep Cabello B. Crit Care Med 2008;36:

40 Effect of sedatives Benzodiazepines and propofol increase total sleep time by prolonging stage 2 sleep but they decrease SWS and REM sleep Zolpidem and zopiclone (γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptor agonists do not suppress SWS and have a less negative effect on REM sleep Dexmedetomidine enhances SWS

41 Sleep promotion in the ICU (1) Noise reduction Individual patient rooms, ear plugs, monitor alarm settings, conversation Diurnal lightning practices Reduce lightning during the night and use blindfolds Sleep promoting agents zolpidem, zopiclone or gaboxadol (increases SWS), dexmedetomidine or melatonin

42 Sleep promotion in the ICU (2) Avoid sleep reducing agents Benzodiazepines, opioids, inotropic agents, lipid soluble β-blockers, H2- receptor blockers, proton pump inhibitors, high-dose corticosteroids, β- lactam antibiotics, quinolones Adequate uninterrupted time for sleep Reduce nighttime assessment and monitor alarms
