University Hospital of Sharjah becomes the UAE’s first to introduce modern sedation technique for ICU patients
The University Hospital of Sharjah (UHS) has announced the introduction of new sedation technique for the patients in intensive care unit (ICU. This makes UHS the first hospital in the UAE and one of the first in the wider Middle East region to use volatile anesthetic gases to induce sedation in ICU patients with remarkable success. The hospital’s transition to the use of volatile anesthetic gases was seamless as the ICU team at UHS possesses hands-on experience in using this sedation modality. Apart from that, the team’s accessibility to modern technology-enabled tools also contributes to the use of this technique in line with highest international standards. Sedation with volatile anesthetic gases, particularly Sevoflurane and Isoflurane, is a popular modality among anesthesia personnel globally these days.
