Assessing and Managing Sedation in the Intensive Care and the Perioperative Settings
SEDATION Curriculum Learning Objectives • Manage adult patients who need sedation and analgesia while receiving ventilator support according to current standards and guidelines • Use validated scales for sedation, pain, agitation and delirium in the management of these critically ill patients • Assess recent clinical findings in sedation and analgesia management and incorporate them into the management of patients in the acute care, procedural, and surgical sedation settings
