Why the ABCDE Protocol?
Need for Sedation and Analgesia
• Prevent pain and anxiety
• Decrease oxygen consumption
• Decrease the stress response
• Patient-ventilator synchrony
• Avoid adverse neurocognitive sequelae
- Depression, PTSD

Potential Drawbacks of Sedative
and Analgesic Therapy
• Oversedation:
• Failure to initiate spontaneous breathing trials (SBT) leads to increased
duration of mechanical ventilation (MV)
• Longer duration of ICU stay
• Impede assessment of neurologic function
• Increase risk for delirium
• Numerous agent-specific adverse events

We Need Coordinated Care
• Many tasks and demands on critical care staff
• Great need to align and supporting the people,
processes, and technology already existing in ICUs
• ABCDE protocol is multiple components,
interdependent, and designed to:
• Improve collaboration among clinical team members
• Standardize care processes
• Break the cycle of oversedation and prolonged ventilation

ICU Sedation: It’s a Balancing
Act
Consequences of Suboptimal
Sedation
Inadequate
sedation/analgesia
• Anxiety
• Pain
• Patient-ventilator
dyssynchrony
• Agitation
– Self-removal of
tubes/catheters
• Care provider assault
• Myocardial ischemia
• Family dissatisfaction
Excessive sedation
• Prolonged mechanical
ventilation, ICU LOS
– Tracheostomy
– DVT, VAP
• Additional testing
• Added cost
• Inability to
communicate
• Cannot evaluate for
delirium
Structured Approaches to
Sedation & Analgesia in the ICU
1. Multidisciplinary development, implementation
2. Establish goals/targets, frequently re-evaluate
3. Measure key components using validated scales
4. Select medications based on characteristics, evidence
5. Incorporate key patient considerations
6. Prevent oversedation, yet control pain and agitation
7. Promote multidisciplinary acceptance and integration
into routine care
Sessler & Pedram. Crit Care Clinics 2009; 25:489-513
Validated ICU Sedation Scales
• Richmond agitation-sedation scale (RASS)
• Sedation agitation scale (SAS)
• Ramsay sedation scale
• Motor activity assessment scale (MAAS)
• Vancouver interactive and calmness scale
(VICS)
• Adaptation to intensive care environment
(ATICE)
• Minnesota sedation assessment tool
(MSAT)
Setting Targets
Provide for agitation/anxiety free,
amnesia, comfort
• Trying to achieve a balance
• TIGHT TITRATION
Adjust target depending on current need
• Per patient
• Different over the course of
Illness/Treatment
Use Protocols to Achieve Goals,
Minimize Drug Accumulation,
Maximize Alertness
• Patient-focused drug selection
• Preference for analgesia > sedation
• Intermittent therapy via boluses
• Frequent evaluation of sedation, pain,
ICU therapy tolerance
– Titrate therapy for lowest effective dose
• Daily interruption of sedation
• RCT: 2x2 factorial design
– Midazolam vs propofol
– Daily interruption of sedation vs routine
• Discontinue all sedative and analgesic medications
• Monitor patient closely until awake or agitated,
i.e., can perform at least 3 of 4 on command:
– Open eyes
– Squeeze hand
– Lift head
– Stick out tongue
• Restart medications at half dosage (if necessary)
Kress et al. N Engl J Med 2000; 342:1471-7
Daily Awakening Trial Results
• Shorter duration
of mechanical
ventilation
• Shorter ICU LOS
• Fewer tests for
altered mental
status
Kress et al. N Engl J Med 2000; 342:1471-7
Why Is Interruption of Sedation
Effective?
• Less accumulation of sedative drug and
metabolites
– Significantly less midazolam and morphine with DIS
in midazolam subgroup
– But… no difference in amount of propofol and
morphine with DIS in propofol subgroup
• Opportunity for more effective weaning from
mechanical ventilation?
Wake Up and Breathe
Sessler CN. Crit Care Med 2004
Kress et al. NEJM. 2000
Multicenter RCT:
• 168 patients with “spontaneous
awakening trial” (SAT)
– i.e., daily interruption of sedation (SAT)
+ spontaneous breathing trial (SBT)
• 168 patients with standard sedation + SBT
“SAT + SBT” Was Superior to
Conventional Sedation + SBT
Intervention (SAT) group = Less benzodiazepine
Extubated faster
Discharged from ICU sooner
P = 0.01
P = 0.02
Girard et al. Lancet 2008; 371:126-34
“SAT + SBT” Was Superior to
Conventional Sedation + SBT
Discharged from hospital sooner
Better survival at 1 yr
P = 0.04
Alive
P = 0.01
P = 0.01
P = 0.02
Intervention (SAT) group = More unplanned
extubation, but not more reintubation
Girard et al. Lancet 2008; 371:126-34
Awakening & Breathing
Coordination
• Synergy of daily awakening – via
interruption of sedation – plus
spontaneous breathing trial
– Less medication accumulation, less
excessive sedation
– Opportunity for more effective
independent breathing (SBT)
• Perform safety screens for SAT and for
SBT
ABC Safety Screens
Wake Up Safety Screen
• No active seizures
• No active alcohol
withdrawal
• No active agitation
• No active paralytic
use
• No myocardial
ischemia (24h)
• Normal intracranial
pressure

2. If pass safety screen, perform SAT
If fail ; restart sedatives if necessary (1/2
If pass ; continue to SBT safety screen
dose)

Delirium Monitoring and
Management
Delirium: Key Features
1.
Disturbance of consciousness with reduced ability to
focus, sustain or shift attention
2.
A change in cognition or the development of a
perceptual disturbance that is not better accounted
for by pre-existing, established or evolving dementia
3.
Develops over a short period of time and tends to
fluctuate over the course of the day
4.
There is evidence from the H&P and/or labs that the
disturbance is caused by a medical condition,
substance intoxication or medication side effect
Delirium Subtypes
Combative
Agitated
Restless
Hyperactive Delirium
Mixed
Delirium
Alert & Calm
Lethargic

Stupor
Hypoactive Delirium
ICU Delirium
• Increased ICU length of stay (8 vs 5 days)
• Increased hospital length of stay (21 vs 11
days)
• Increased time on ventilator (9 vs 4 days)
• Higher ICU costs ($22,000 vs $13,000)
• Higher ICU mortality (19.7% vs 10.3%)
• Higher hospital mortality (26.7% vs 21.4%)
• 3-fold increased risk of death at 6 months

Delirium Management
1. Identify etiology
2. Identify risk factors
3. Consider pharmacologic
treatment
Jacobi J, et al. Crit Care Med 2002;30:119-141
Stop and THINK
Do any meds need to be
stopped or lowered?
• Especially consider sedatives
• Is patient on minimal amount
necessary?
– Daily sedation cessation
– Targeted sedation plan
– Assess target daily
• Do sedatives need to be
changed?
• Remember to assess for pain!
Toxic Situations
• CHF, shock, dehydration
• New organ failure (liver/kidney)
Hypoxemia
Infection/sepsis (nosocomial),
Immobilization
Nonpharmacologic interventions
• Hearing aids, glasses, reorient,
sleep protocols, music, noise
control, ambulation
K+ or electrolyte problems
Consider antipsychotics after evaluating etiology & risk factors

Delirium
Nonpharmacologic Interventions
Pain:
• Monitor and manage pain using an objective
scale (e.g., FACES, BPS, VAS, CPOT, etc.)
Orientation:
• Convey the day, date, place, and reason for
hospitalization
• Update the whiteboards with caregiver names
• Request placement of a clock and calendar in
room
• Discuss current events
Nonpharmacologic Interventions
Sensory:
• Determine need for hearing aids and/or eye glasses
• If needed, request surrogate provide these for patient
when appropriate
Sleep:
• Noise reduction strategies (e.g. minimize noise outside the
room, offer white noise or earplugs)
• Normal day-night variation in illumination
• Use “time out” strategy to minimize interruptions in sleep
• Maintain ventilator synchrony
• Promote comfort and relaxation (e.g., back care, oral
care, washing face/hands, and daytime bath, massage)
E
Early Exercise and Mobility
Early Exercise in the ICU
• Early exercise = progressive mobility
• Study design: paired SAT/SBT protocol
with PT/OT from earliest days of
mechanical ventilation

Early Exercise and Mobility
Eligibility = All patients are
eligible for Early Exercise and
Mobility
Perform Safety Screen First
Safety Screen
• Patient responds to verbal stimulation (i.e., RASS > -3)
• FIO2 <0.6
• PEEP <10 cmH2O
• No  dose of any vasopressor infusion for at least 2 hours
• No evidence of active myocardial ischemia (24 hrs)
• No arrhythmia requiring the administration of new
antiarrhythmic agent (24hrs)
If patient passes Exercise/Mobility Safety Screen, move on to
Exercise and Mobility Therapy
If patient fails, s/he is too critically ill to tolerate exercise/mobility
Early Exercise & Mobility
Levels of Therapy*
1. Active range of motion in bed and sitting
position in bed
2. Dangling
3. Transfer to chair (active), includes standing
without marching in place
4. Ambulation (marching in place, walking in
room or hall)
*All may be done with assistance.
