Use of dexmedetomidine in a cardiac intensive care unit

Delirium, pain and agitation, known as the "triad of Intensive Care Units (ICU)" [1] are very common in critical patients. At least 20% of patients develop delirium during their stay in the ICU, reaching 80% in those receiving mechanical ventilation [2]. There is a need to identify these patients for appropriate treatment and prevention, as this neuronal dysfunction is associated with increased mortality, length of hospitalization, dependency and disability at discharge [3,4].
