Andreas Meiser summarizes the current literature on inhalation sedation of critically ill patients. To meet clinical demands, he describes the development of new devices to administer volatile anesthetics together with common ICU ventilators. Their basic principle is called anesthetic reflection. The author discusses advantages and drawbacks of these devices in line with clinical studies demonstrating advantages of inhaled versus intravenous ICU sedation.

Reviews for Inhaled sedation in the intensive care unit: A new option and its technical prerequisites

“The book is primarily for physicians and other staff members working in the intensive care setting, but will also be useful for other physicians, who visit the intensive care department to see patients and for anesthesiologists, who work closely together with intensive care therapists. As far as I know, this is the only book available that focuses solely on this topic … . it is well written and deals with the topic in a clear and straightforward way.” (Ann Merete Møller, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 131 (4), October, 2020)
