Highlights
In a previous issue of Critical Care we read with great interest the article by Tanaka and colleagues [1] who studied the relationship between early deep sedation and clinical outcomes of mechanically ventilated patients in Brazilian ICUs
[1], the baseline data between light and deep sedation were not comparable, as admission Simplified Acute Physiology Score 3 and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score on day 1 were significantly lower in light sedation than in deep sedation
This implies that the disease severity in deep sedation was significantly higher than in light sedation
Summary
In a previous issue of Critical Care we read with great interest the article by Tanaka and colleagues [1] who studied the relationship between early deep sedation and clinical outcomes of mechanically ventilated patients in Brazilian ICUs. [1], the baseline data between light and deep sedation were not comparable, as admission Simplified Acute Physiology Score 3 and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score on day 1 were significantly lower in light sedation than in deep sedation (both P =0.001). This implies that the disease severity in deep sedation was significantly higher than in light sedation.
