|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective of this study is to determine the influence of morphine dosage (2.5 mg vs 7.5 mg) on the percentage of patients with a rated NRS of = 4 during an painful and unavoidable intervention. ;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives are to evaluate NRS scores, safety and other aspects of both the intervention related pain protocol (morphine 2.5 mg vs 7.5 mg) as well as the standard pain titration protocol aiming at pain control in rest (paracetamol and morphine). Additionally, a population pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic model of morphine and its metabolites will be developed using population pharmacokinetics and/or pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) modelling and covariate analysis in order to develop rational individualized dosing schemes for morphine in ICU patients. Whenever possible the level of sedation or concentration of sedative will be incorporated in the model leading to an analgo-sedative model. ;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is to determine the percentage of patients with a NRS of = 4 during intervention (2.5 mg versus 7.5 mg morphine) | — |
