Purpose of review: Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is an important patient-reported outcome measure following critical illness. ‘Validated’ and professionally endorsed generic measures are widely used to evaluate critical care intervention and...

Responsiveness of the frontal EMG for monitoring the sedation state of critically ill patients (2011)
Journal Article
Walsh, T. S., Lapinlampi, T. P., Ramsay, P., Särkelä, M. O. K., Uutelo, K., & Viertiö-Oja, H. E. (2011). Responsiveness of the frontal EMG for monitoring the sedation state of critically ill patients. British Journal of Anaesthesia, 107, 710-718. https://doi.org/10.1093/bja/aer228

Background. Excessive sedation is associated with adverse patient outcomes during critical illness, and a validated monitoring technology could improve care. We developed a novel method, the responsiveness index (RI) of the frontal EMG. We compared R...
