Focus today on Iatrogenic Withdrawal Syndrome
🔸S&S include autonomic & CNS & GI dysfx
🔸prevalence 5-87%
🔸assessment and monitoring with validated tools critical
🔸WAT-1 and SOS most often used
🔸risk factors below

#SCCM2022 #PedsICU

🔸unclear if alpha agonist use more efficacious than benzo use reduction to avoid IWS
🔸alpha agonists have their own IWS
🔸drug replacement same receptor activity mitigates S&S

#SCCM2022 #PedsICU

IWS prevention is the holy grail
🔸ABCDEF bundle to reduce sedation exposure
🔸goal directed sedation protocols
🔸daily sedation interruption
🔸protocolized weaning using screening tools, incl tx for breakthrough IWS

#SCCM2022 #PedsICU

Can also consider
🔸protocolized drug rotation
🔸be sure to adequately treat pain
🔸adapt to your patient population
