Pain management and sedation in the intensive care unit (ICU) have significantly changed. Deep sedation is harmful for a majority of ICU patients because of associated complications and poor outcomes. Light sedation with optimal pain management is required. Light sedation may prevent delirium through early mobilization/rehabilitation and good communication between patients and ICU staff. Light sedation may change patient outcomes since ICU delirium can lead to long-term cognitive dysfunction and muscle weakness. These two long term sequelae are key components in the development of postintensive care syndrome (PICS). Pain management and sedation play an important role in the prevention of PICS. Adequate pain management and sedation may provide optimal conditions for patients to receive ICU care and rehabilitation, and subsequently, a high quality of life for ICU survivors. This article summarizes the current evidence on light sedation, ICU delirium and outcomes for critically ill patients, and focuses on pharmacological prevention of ICU delirium.
