There is a direct relationship between the sedative agent and the duration of ventilation.
Sedation and sedative agent have direct correlation to the mechanical length. As known mechanical length could increase length of the hospital stay (LOHS) and mortality rate. The right sedative agent can decrease the length go the mechanical ventilation. The goal of the research to compare 3 sedation strategies and their influence to the duration of mechanical ventilation.
