Description

Muneera Al-Jelaify and co-authors report a 2026 guideline adaptation for calming and pain control in critically ill children. Children in intensive care often need sedation and pain relief, but both too little and too much cause harm. The panel adapted existing evidence-based guidelines for sedation, pain, withdrawal, and delirium, confusion states seen in very ill patients.

The adapted guideline covers how to score sedation and pain at the bedside, choose and adjust medicines, and wean children off them safely. It adds tools for spotting withdrawal and delirium, plus three step-by-step management algorithms and a push for early movement. The authors note the tools need testing for wider use.
