Assessment and Management of Pain, Agitation, Delirium and Sleep Deprivation (PADS) in ICU by PADS Protocol, Thailand

August 30, 2021 updated by: Pitchaya Dilokpattanamongkol, Mahidol University

Pain, Agitation, Delirium and Sleep Deprivation Assessment and Management in Intensive Care Units, Thailand: a Before-after Study

The investigators proposed that pain, agitation, delirium and sleep deprivation protocol (PADS) will help improve the patients' outcomes (shortening ICU length of stay, improving ventilator free days, increasing delirium free days) in critically ill patients, a university hospital, Thailand.

Study Overview

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Pain is frequently reported in patients admitted to an ICU, with an incidence of up to 50% in medical patients during admission, and increasing up to 80% during standard care procedures. Agitation was also reported in 52% of the patients, typically within 4-9 days after admission. However, there were studies reporting inadequate pain, agitation and delirium assessment and management in real-world clinical practice. The clinical practice guideline for the management of pain, agitation/sedation, delirium, immobility, and sleep disruption in adult patients in the ICU was recently published in 2018 and emphasized routinely monitoring pain, agitation and delirium during ICU admissions. Also, appropriate management of pain and agitation in critically ill patients resulted in reduction in ICU length of stay, hospital length of stay, delirium and mortality. Therefore, structural pain, agitation/sedation, delirium assessment and treatment in the ICUs, Thailand might be necessary.

Since pain, agitation/sedation and delirium protocol has not yet been initiated in ICUs, Thailand, this study is designed as a before-after study in order to assess outcomes by comparing between before and after protocol initiation. The objectives of the study were to document the impact of pain, agitation/sedation, delirium protocol on clinical outcomes of ICU patients admitted to ICUs at Ramathibodi Hospital, a university hospital, Thailand

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
