Summary

To show that the nurse implementation of a sedation and analgesia algorithm is beneficial to the patient in terms of sedative drugs reduction and thus overall decrease in duration of mechanical ventilation and the morbidity and mortality which is associated with it, without altering patient comfort and tolerance of the environment. This, compared to the less frequent assessments by doctors and thus regular adjustments during the day as opposed to a fixed drug dose.
