Abstract |
Background |
Volatile anaesthetic agents, especially sevoflurane, could be an alternative for sedating ICU patients. In the operating theatre, volatile anaesthetic agents are monitored using minimal alveolar concentration (MAC). In ICU, MAC may be used to assess sedation level and may replace clinical scale especially when they are unusable. Therefore, we sought to investigate the minimal sevoflurane end-tidal concentration to achieved deep sedation in critical ill patients: MAC-deep sedation (MAC-DS).
Methods |
In a prospective interventional study, we included patients with a Richmond Assessment Sedation Score (RASS) of 0 without any sedation. We stepwise increased sevoflurane concentration level before assessing for deep sedation (RASS≤−3). MAC-DS was defined as the minimal sevoflurane MAC fraction or sevoflurane expiratory fraction (FeSevo) to get 90% and 95% of patients in deep sedation (MAC-DS 90 and MAC-DS 95, respectively).
Results |
Between June and November 2014, 30 patients were included (median age=60 years [interquartile range: 47–69]). Increasing sevoflurane MAC was correlated with a decrease in RASS values (r=−0.83, P<0.001). MAC-DS 90 and MAC-DS 95 were achieved at 0.42 MAC (CI 95 [0.38–0.46]) and 0.46 MAC (CI 95 [0.42–0.51]), respectively. FeSevo to achieve MAC-DS 90 and MAC-DS 95 was 0.72 (CI 95 [0.65–0.79]) and 0.80 (CI 95 [0.72–0.89]), respectively.
Conclusion |
In this physiological study involving 30 ICU patients, MAC-DS, end-tidal sevoflurane concentration to get 95% of patients in deep sedation determined over more than 500 observations, is achieved at 0.8% of expired fraction of sevoflurane or at 0.5 age-adjusted MAC.
