Sedation and Pain Management in the ICU
Analgesia and sedation work together to successfully manage severely unwell patients. In all varieties of intensive care units—surgical, medical, neurosurgical, oncological, and cardiac—it is crucial. Incorporating a patient-centered approach, it addresses patient safety as well as the contributing and predisposing aspects of pain, agitation, and delirium. Protocol-based weaning procedures from sedative-analgesic medicines, adequate medication selection, monitoring, and patient-appropriate analgesia and sedation scales can all contribute to a good outcome. The goal of this session is to clarify why and how to get the right amount of sedation and analgesia. Attention is also focused on the several measures that are employed to accurately analyze it.

Massive Transfusion Protocol
Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP) is a standardized medical procedure activated in cases of severe hemorrhage, typically involving the rapid administration of large volumes of blood products. The goal is to restore circulating volume, maintain hemostasis, and prevent the lethal triad of hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy. MTP usually involves a balanced ratio of packed red blood cells, plasma, and platelets, often in a 1:1:1 ratio. Early activation and coordination among trauma teams, laboratory services, and blood banks are essential for its success.
