Expert consensus on management of pain, agitation and related issues in adult patients with critical respiratory diseases
Zhonghua Jie He He Hu Xi Za Zhi. 2023 Dec 12;46(12):1162-1175. doi: 10.3760/cma.j.cn112147-20230901-00123.ABSTRACTAs patients with critical respiratory diseases suffer from the discomfort of disease, frequent medical and nursing procedures, and the noise disturbance of the ICU environment, it is necessary to implement analgesia and sedation to reduce their negative stress and oxygen consumption. Special emphasis will be placed on the clinical practice of analgesia, sedation and rehabilitation in critically ill patients with respiratory diseases, as different pathophysiological features of the respective pulmonary diseases ...
