SEDO-ANALGESIA in ICU

Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine
ANALGESIA
• The primary goal of analgesia is optimizing patient comfort
• The secondary goals are attenuation of the negative physiologic responses to pain including – hypermetabolism– increased oxygen consumption– hypercoagulability– alterations in immune function
TO ASSESS PAIN• Assessment of pain in
conscious and interactive patients– VRS (Verbal Rating Scale)– VAS (Visual Analogue Scale)– NRS (Numeric Rating Scale)– Behavioral-Physiological Scale
• Assessment of pain is more complicated in semiconscious or noncommunicative patients. Pain should be suspected in the presence of signs of discomfort (eg, grimacing, writhing) or sympathetic activation (eg, tachycardia, hypertension).
The critically ill patient may not be able to adequately communicate their level of pain and, as such, pain control in the critical care setting is often inadequate.
The degree of pain often is underestimated and the clinician should err on the sideof assuming the patient is in pain.
Visual analog pain scale
For conscious patients, a pain rating of 3 or less out of 10, or 2 or less out of 5, has been suggested as a desirable goal of analgesia. However, analgesic goals are patient-specific and depend upon the clinical situation, and patient tolerance of pain and side effects. Some patients may prefer to tolerate some pain to maintain a degree of alertnesswhereas others will not.
NONPHARMACOLOGIC THERAPY
•To prevent sleep deprivation •To treat anxiety and delirium•Nonpharmacologic interventions include minimizing irritating stimuli (eg, traction on the endotracheal tube) and uncomfortable positioning. •Complementary therapies – relaxation techniques– music therapy (based upon the gate control theory of
pain)
ANALGESIA• Analgesics reduce the sensation
of pain by– altering perception of pain in the
central nervous system (eg, opiate analgesics, acetaminophen)
– inhibiting local pain mediator production (eg, blockade of prostaglandin synthesis by nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs)
– interrupting neural impulse in the spinal cord (eg, neuraxial block)
• In critically ill patients, alleviation of pain is predominantly accomplished via central mechanisms

ANALGESIAFor parenteral analgesia, fentanyl, morphine, or hydromorphone are most commonly used.●Fentanyl or hydromorphone are recommended instead of morphine for patients with renal insufficiency or hemodynamic instability (IIB).
●Fentanyl may be preferred to morphine in patients with acute bronchospasm.
●Morphine or hydromorphone are preferred to fentanyl for intermittent bolus therapy due to their longer duration of action.
●Remifentanil may be selected for patients with multiple organ dysfunction due to metabolism that is not dependent upon hepatic or renal function. It is generally used in mechanically-ventilated patients due to the high incidence of respiratory depression
Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Management of Pain, Agitation, and Delirium in Adult Patients in the Intensive Care Unit , CCM 2013
Intravenous opiates ●Bolus intravenous injections
-moderate pain, with doses titrated to analgesic requirements and avoidance of respiratory depression and hemodynamic instability.
-bedside procedures that may cause pain with additional dosing given during the procedure, as needed.
●Continuous intravenous infusions -moderate-to-severe pain that is poorly controlled with repeated bolus
injections
●Patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) may be preferable in conscious patients, particularly in the postoperative setting. This technique allows self-dosing with opiates up to a predetermined limit set by the clinician.
Fentanyl
• A synthetic derivative of morphine and approximately 100 times more potent
• More lipid-soluble than morphine improved penetration of the blood-brain barrier a more rapid onset of action and a shorter half-life (two to three hours) than morphine
• Clinically significant histamine release rarely occurs with fentanyl dosages up to 50 mcg/kg and, thus, fentanyl may be preferred in the presence of hemodynamic instability or bronchospasm
Remifentanil
• Analgesic potency approximately equal to fentanyl
• An ultra-short acting opioid metabolized by nonspecific plasma esterases to inactive metabolites
• The rapid onset and offset and lack of accumulation with renal and hepatic dysfunction are potential advantages
• Despite the unique pharmacokinetic properties, in a meta-analysis of
eleven trials, remifentanil was not associated with reduced mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, length of intensive care unit stay, or agitation
ANALGESIA
• Other parenteral agents that may become useful for controlling pain in intensive care unit patients include ketamine and paracetamol.
• Intravenous NSAIDs can be used in some patients as a short-term adjunct to other analgesic agents.
• However, NSAIDs are associated with an increased risk
of cardiovascular thrombotic events and gastrointestinal complications including gastritis, bleeding, ulcers and perforation.
Indications of Sedation
• Mechanical ventilation• Invasive procedures• Acute interventions• Decrease O2 requirement• Prevent self damage• Paralysis• Adjunction of analgesia• End of life period• Control and measure physiological parameters
Causes of anxiety/agitation
• Cardiovascular (angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, hypertension…)
• Pulmonary(asthma, COPD, respiratory failure…)
• Endocrine/metabolic(adrenal insufficiency, hypocalcemia, hypercalcemia, hyperkalemia, hypoglysemia….)
• Neurologic(serebral tumor/trauma, convulsion…)
• Some organic diseases(anemia, carcinoid syndrome…)
• Drugs(ACEI, analgesics, fluoroquinolone….)
Selection of an agent• No sedative-analgesic agent is sufficiently superior to other agents to
warrant its use in all clinical situations. Selection of an agent must be individualized according to patient characteristics and the clinical situation.
• The Society of Critical Care Medicine guidelines favor nonbenzodiazepine agents (propofol or dexmedetomidine) due to evidence of shorter duration of mechanical ventilation (+2B).
• Important considerations when selecting a sedative-analgesic agent include – the etiology of the distress – expected duration of therapy– clinical status of the patient– potential interactions with other drugs
Selection of an agent-Etiology of the distress
– Dyspnea or pain opioids– Delirium antipsychotics (haloperidol)– Anxiety benzodiazepines
– More than one cause combination therapyAs an example, a benzodiazepine plus an opioid is appropriate for a patient whose agitation is due to anxiety and pain.
– For patients who are intubated and mechanically ventilated and not able to clearly communicate the source of agitation, analgesia should always be provided first

Early Intensive Care Sedation Predicts Long-TermMortality in Ventilated Critically Ill Patients
Yahya Shehab et al. Am J Respir Crit Care Med Vol, 2012, 186, Iss. 8, pp 724–731
Time to extubationSurvival
Deep sedation within 4 hours of commencing ventilation as an independent negative predictor of the time to extubation, hospital death, and 180-day mortality. The early phase of ICU sedation is usually unaccounted for in randomized controlled trials due to late randomization.
WITHDRAWAL
• The analgesics should be tapered last
• Abrupt discontinuation is acceptable – a short duration (≤7 days). – greater than 7 days who are deeply sedated from prolonged
accumulation of medication.
• However, a gradual reduction (~10 to 25 percent per day) is necessary – if the sedative-analgesic agent has been administered for >7 days– the patient exhibits evidence of tachyphylaxis,
WITHDRAWAL
Benzodiazepine withdrawal symptoms include – agitation, confusion,
anxiety, tremors, tachycardia, hypertension, and fever.
– Seizures may also occur. – The administration of
intermittent IV or oral lorazepam (0.5-1 mg, every 6 to 12 hours)
Opiate withdrawal symptoms include – agitation, anxiety, confusion,
rhinorrhea, lacrimation, diaphoresis, mydriasis, piloerection, stomach cramps, diarrhea, tremor, nausea, vomiting, chills, tachycardia, hypertension, and fever.
– To preventing opioid withdrawal, including • de-escalating the dose• converting to a longer acting oral
equivalent • converting to a long-acting
barbiturate (eg, phenobarbital), and adding an alpha-2-agonist (clonidin, dexmedetomidine, 0.7 mcg/kg/hr (with or without a loading dose)
Conclusions1-Nonpharmacologic therapy should be firstly used
2-Scales should be used for objective assessment
3-For parenteral analgesia, fentanyl, morphine, or hydromorphone are most commonly used
4-Intravenous NSAIDs can be used in some patients as a short-term adjunct to other analgesic agents
5-The Society of Critical Care Medicine guidelines favor nonbenzodiazepine agents (propofol or dexmedetomidine) due to evidence of shorter duration of mechanical ventilation (+2B)
6-No sedative-analgesic agent is sufficiently superior to other agents
