Feasibility of dexmedetomidine in facilitating extubation in the intensive care unit
摘要:
Background: Spontaneous breathing trials (SBT) and intermittent mandatory ventilation (IMV) are common techniques utilized to expedite the ventilator weaning process. These techniques often require the reduction and/or discontinuation of sedatives and analgesics. Reducing these medications can lead to agitation and the inability to conduct SBTs or weaning by IMV. Adding dexmedetomidine (dex), a potent alpha-2-adrenergic receptor agonist that possesses sedative, anxiolytic and analgesic effects without causing significant respiratory depression, may facilitate extubation in these patients.
