Epidural Analgesia in Intensive Care Unit (APD-REA: Analgesie PeriDurale en REAnimation)

NCT01437358 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 80

Last updated 2012-02-28

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Epidural analgesia (EA) has been mainly investigated during the perioperative period. In the intensive care unit settings, EA should be proposed in critically ill patients, such as postoperative or trauma patients, typically. Recent findings also support anti-inflammatory, vascular or respiratory effects for EA, beyond its analgesic effects. However, data on EA safety and feasibility in the intensive care unit settings are still lacking. The purpose of this observational prospective study is to describe the safety and feasibility of this analgesia technique in ICU patients.
