OK so you've expertly initiated RSI and deftly passed your ET tube. Your atient who was previosuly in respiratory dire straits is now securely on the ventilator. What now? What drugs and dosages do you guys and gals like to use for continued sedation? I've messed around a little with versed and fentanyl and some with propofol. In a time where it seems like we are boarding ICU patients more and more this definitely becomes an issue. This is an issue that I'm just now starting to get faced with regularly and it's one that I'm not all that comfortable with yet. Appreciate all the input.
