Abstract
New modes of ventilatory support enabling and encouraging patients’ spontaneous breathing influence the concepts of analgo-sedation in intensive care medicine. Formerly, when the restricting pattern of a totally controlled mechanical ventilation had to be used, a deep sedation and even neuromuscular blockade was often mandatory in order to adapt the patient to the ventilator and prevent him from ‘fighting’ [8]. A recent US national survey [7] indicated that sedative drugs and neuromuscular blocking agents are widely used for patients requiring mechanical ventilation in American ICUs. This means that sedation and myorelaxation become necessary for a therapy to be tolerated.
