Sedation and analgesia is necessary management for patients in the intensive care units. The high-level studies of sedation and analgesia in China are still deficient, especially in patients with brain injuries who even have been excluded from the relevant studies.
Sedation and analgesia is necessary management for patients in the intensive care units. The high-level studies of sedation and analgesia in China are still deficient, especially in patients with brain injuries who even have been excluded from the relevant studies. In the present study, a multicenter, 1-day point cross-sectional study about the sedation and analgesia among patients in China, particularly brain-injured will be investigated. The objectives are to investigate sedation and analgesia among patients in China and to compare sedation and analgesia between brain injuries and other patients.
