Prof. Leanne Aitken: "Optimising Sedation in Critical Care Patients"

In this talk, we will explore why sedation in ICU patients is important, what the links are to outcomes and the challenges of optimising sedation. We will then discuss the different strategies that have been used to optimise sedation practice and the evidence of the effectiveness of each of these strategies. This discussion will enable you to develop ideas of how you might lead change in sedation practice in your own ICU.
