Abstract:
Analgesia and sedation is the necessary measure in critically ill patients. For implementation of an-algesia and sedation treatment, we should respect the patients′ and family members′rights to be informed. Under the premiseof profit maximization and priority to life,we should optimize the analgesic and sedative treatment, and avoid the adverse effects and complications as far as possible. At the same time, we should pay attention to protec-ting patients′privacy and strengthening the cooperation of physicians and nurses. Analgesia sedation management mode formulated and guided by physicians and nurses-led should be promoted.
