AB Key  Clinical  Questions  What  are  the  clinical  and  pharmacologic  effects  of  single  agent  versus  multiple  agent  sedative  and  analgesic  administration?  What  is  the  best  way  to  dose  sedative,  analgesic,  and  paralytic  agents  in  the  intensive  care  unit  (ICU)?  How  do  the  pharmacokinetics  and  dosing  of  sedative,  analgesic,  and  paralytic  agents  change  with  duration  of  infusion?  What  is  the  proper  sequence  to  initiate  sedatives,  analgesics,  and/or  paralytics,  and  how  does  dosing  refinement  affect  time  to  weaning  and  other  predictors  of  favorable  outcome?  How  do  you  select  individual  sedative,  analgesic,  or  paralytic  agents  in  critically  ill  patients?  When  do  you  decide  to  paralyze  a  ventilated  patient?
