We are using too much deep sedation, typically without physician order - light sedation that accepts some discomfort allows for early mobilization and gives the patient the chance to recover to independent living after surgery and critical illness

Among mechanically ventilated adults in an ICU, the proportion of time spent in medication-induced deep sedation was independently associated with loss of independent living. Lighter sedation,...

Great description of our treatment guideline for patients who take GLP-1RA.
No overshooting actions in patients who receive the wonderful GLP-1 RA. Don’t stop this blood sugar control medication preoperatively- do not expose your patients to food restrictions which lead to unhappiness and case cancellations. Please read. https://t.co/lrsK9sSriN

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, deep sedation has become more common in ICUs. But new evidence suggests this practice may be doing more harm than good, reducing patients’ chances of returning to independent living. ➡️ @MonteEinstAnest @MatthiasEikerm1

NEW: Deep sedation, often used in ICUs to ease distress, can impair movement, sleep, and recovery, leading to worse long-term outcomes. @MonteEinstAnest researchers, led by @MatthiasEikerm1, find that symptom-focused care with non-opioid medications supports better recovery.

@MontefioreNYC @ASALifeline @EinsteinMed "New research...shows that in a cohort of more than 10,000 people, patients who received a high proportion of deep sedation while mechanically ventilated had a greater risk of adverse discharge compared to patients who did not receive deep sedation." 📰 https://t.co/4AQxxDDMK2

Favorite rotations: "Cardiac & Pain. Cardiac is when we get to see the most interesting surgeries-from valve replacements to lung transplants. Pain rotation is a change of pace. Watching different outpatient procedures & seeing the patients return with improvement is satisfying."

💉What do you enjoy most about #anesthesiology? "How mentally stimulating it is to consider the patient's physiology and the pharmacology given the patient's medical history and their surgical needs. Also being able to do procedures." #Anesthesiologist #AnesthesiaResident
