Critical illness is currently defned by certain syndromes, such as sepsis or acute renal failure, or by physiological alterations, such as shock states or hypoxemia. It is hence often necessary to inte- grate the more traditional subspecialties of medicine into critical care practice. For these reasons, critical care demands continuous advances in technology, therapeu- tics, and monitoring to improve the prognosis of disease states that infuence organ physiology, especially in elderly patients. Attention to sedation and analgesia in intensive care units (ICUs) has evolved during the last years, and signifcant evidence of its infuence on patient outcomes has emerged. In light of this, those privileged to take care of patients in the ICU have witnessed a dramatic evolution from former practices of deep sedation lasting for several days to a gentler approach that treats “light sedation” for cooperative patients as the indisputably preferable option. Patients’ brains are vulnerable organs in the context of the multiple organ dysfunction that commonly characterizes critically ill patients. Sedation causes both brief and long-lasting injury that may manifest delir- ium and cognitive impairment. This book, with its precious contributions from authors selected from physicians and researchers who handle sedatives and analgesics in their daily clinical practice, provides readers with an overview of current knowledge and the most up-to-date lit- erature. The contents are designed to cover a number of issues directly or indirectly related to analgo-sedation in the ICU. Drugs currently in use (e.g., benzodiazepines or propofol) and newer molecules or applications (e.g., dexmedetomidine, halogenates) are discussed in relation to different aspects of patient care, including stress response, pain management, instrumental and clinical monitoring, the immune system, and sleep quality and quantity. Issues such as pediatric population, neuromuscular block- ing agents, regional anesthesia techniques, and delirium are also addressed. Our aim was to design a text that would both revise and update the basic subject matter while directing practitioners toward the confdent use of a specifc drug or technique. As editors, we found the revision of individual manuscripts rewarding, and we believe that the subject matter displays a healthy balance between theoretical under- standing and practical clinical implementation. We hope that readers will fnd the chapters both informative and useful for improving patient care in their everyday clinical practice. v vi Preface Finally, we wish to thank the editorial team members of Springer International Publishing AG; Mr. Andrea Ridolf, Clinical Medicine Books Editor; and Mr. Rakesh Kumar Jotheeswaran, Project Coordinator, for having provided support in editing all chapters of this book.

Raffaele De Gaudio is Full Professor of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care at the University of Florence and Director of Postgraduate School of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care. He is working at Careggi University Hospital in Florence as Director of the Department of Anesthesia and Intensive Care. He is Past President of the Italian Society of Intensive Care (SITI) and Vice President of the Italian Society of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care. His research areas cover different felds such as sedation in ICU, infection and sepsis in critically ill patient, critical care nephrology, perioperative medicine, acute pain, and palliative medicine in ICU. Stefano Romagnoli is an anesthesiologist and intensivist at the Department of Anesthesia and Critical Care at the Careggi University Hospital in Florence. He is Secretary-General of the Italian Society of Intensive Care. His main interests are anesthesia and intensive care in adult cardiac surgery, vascular surgery, and thoracic surgery. Dr. Romagnoli is an expert in hemodynamic monitoring and management (from pulmonary artery catheters to minimally invasive tools and echocardiography). Additional felds of interest are sedation in critically ill patients, critical care nephrology, renal replace- ment, and blood purifcation therapies. He is the author of a number of papers pub- lished in international, peer-reviewed, indexed journals including Critical Care Medicine, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Plos One, and Critical Care. ix List of Contributors Elena Angeli, M.D. Department of Health Science, University of Florence, Florence, Italy Francesco Barbani, M.D. Department of Anesthesia and Intensive Care, Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria Careggi, Florence, Italy Sergio Bevilacqua, M.D. Cardiac Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Unit, Department of Anesthesia and Intensive Care, Azienda Ospedaliera Universitaria Careggi, Florence, Italy Elena Bignami, M.D. Department of Anesthesia and Intensive Care, IRCCS San Raffaele Scientifc Institute, Milan, Italy Matteo Bonifazi, M.D. Department of Health Science, University of Florence, Florence, Italy Etrusca Brogi, M.D. Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, University of Pisa, Pisa, Italy Dario Caldiroli, M.D. Fondazione I.R.C.C.S.
