greater morbidity and even mortality&#46; On the other hand&#44; excessive sedation prolongs the duration of MV and of patient stay in the DICM&#44; increases the risk of complications such as ventilator-associated pneumonia or neuromuscular alterations&#44;

the variations in the methodology used to evaluate sedation&#44; and the differences in the frequency of evaluation all make it difficult to establish the true incidence of inappropriate sedation&#46; In this context&#44; the published incidence of suboptimal sedation is 1&#8211;75&#37;&#44; and oversedation is more common than undersedation&#44; with an estimated frequency of 33&#8211;57&#37;&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> In the DICM&#44;

and the maintenance of a normal sleep-waking cycle&#46; However&#44; because of their clinical condition&#44; some patients may require deeper sedation &#40;e&#46;g&#46;&#44; in situations of intracranial hypertension or acute respiratory distress syndrome&#41;&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7&#44;8</span></a></p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In order to prevent the deleterious effects of undersedation or oversedation&#44;
