Concept | Richmond agitation sedation scale (RASS) |
Description | A scale used to measure the agitation or sedation level of a patient. |
Use | RASS is mostly used in the setting of mechanically ventilated patients in the intensive care unit to avoid over- and under-sedation. Also as the first step in administering the Confusion Assessment Method in the ICU (CAM-ICU), a tool to detect delirium in intensive care unit patients. |
Purpose | To measure the agitation or sedation level of a hospitalized patients. |
