Brief Summary: The objective of the study is to evaluate the effects of halogenated gases on sedation and analgesia, to describe the tolerance and to determine the risk factors for failure, in pediatric intensive care patients during prolonged sedation. This study will be based on the medical records of patients hospitalized between 2015 and 2020.
Detailed Description: Sedation is a major therapeutic element in patients in intensive care under artificial ventilation, in order to allow their comfort and patient-ventilator synchronization. The use of benzodiazepines in combination with opioids is common practice. However, during prolonged sedation, the effects wane, then the doses must be increased, responsible for an increase in the incidence of a significant withdrawal syndrome in the recovery phase, a source of delay in extubation or early reintubation. The use of halogenated anesthetic gases is now possible in pediatric intensive care in these patients on artificial ventilation. Their efficacy and tolerance in prolonged use must be evaluated. Their use could improve the sedative effects, reduce the doses of benzodiazepines and opioids used, and reduce unwanted effects in terms of withdrawal syndrome. The objective of the study is to evaluate the effects of halogenated gases on sedation and analgesia, to describe the tolerance and to determine the risk factors for failure, in pediatric intensive care patients during prolonged sedation. This study will be based on the medical records of patients hospitalized between 2015 and 2020.
