Summary

This study tested three different ways to manage pain and sedation in 90 adults on breathing machines (mechanical ventilation) for at least 48 hours. The goal was to see which approach was most practical and how it affected time in the ICU. The study did not aim to cure or treat a disease, but to gather knowledge on improving care for patients with acute respiratory failure.
