    Abstract

    Introduction: Sedation and analgesia are integral parts of patient care in intensive care units. These medications are routinely administered to mechanically ventilated patients to reduce pain, anxiety, improve patient comfort, to allow the patient to tolerate the physical environment and unpleasant procedures, avoiding awareness during ICU stay, reduce the requirement for the use of neuromuscular blocking agents and to contribute in maintaining metabolic and haemodynamic homeostasis.
