Calling the family members, the relexing exercises, musical therapy, masaj and sitting exercises are important in control of anxiety and ajitation of patients. Safe and effective management of the pain and anxiety needs a delicate balance for analgesia and sedation protocols while managing delirium status. The weaning of patients from mechanical ventilation is often hampered by the sedation that they receive. Additionally, coordinated daily interruption of sedative infusions with objective re-titration in critically ill patients has been shown to decrease the durations of mechanical ventilation and length of ICU stay | MEDICAL INFORMATICS Edited by Shaul Mordechai and Ranjit Sahu Medical Informatics Edited by Shaul Mordechai and Ranjit Sahu Published by InTech Janeza Trdine 9 51000 Rijeka Croatia Copyright 2012 InTech All chapters are Open Access distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution license which allows users to download copy and build upon published articles even for commercial purposes as long as the author and publisher are properly credited which ensures maximum dissemination and a wider impact of our publications.
