    SCCMPod-572: Propofol in the ICU: Balancing Sedation and Stability

    Propofol remains a cornerstone sedative for mechanically ventilated critically ill patients and is supported by PADIS guidelines and favored for its rapid onset, titratability, and limited side effects. However, its use in hemodynamically unstable patients remains a persistent clinical dilemma. In this episode of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Podcast, host Kyle Enfield, MD, is joined by Scott Benken, PharmD, MHPE, BCCCP, and Nathan Smischney, MD, MS, to explore the risks, benefits, and evolving evidence surrounding propofol use in this high-risk population.     The discussion examines the physiologic basis of propofol-associated hypotension and how that can manifest in different patients, such as those with sepsis and septic shock. Patient selection and real-time assessment of hemodynamic trends are essential. Additional considerations include the recognition of and monitoring for propofol infusion syndrome, a rare but life-threatening complication.     The episode also explores alternative drugs such as dexmedetomidine and ketamine, highlighting the benefits and risks of each. Emerging strategies are discussed, including a ketamine-propofol combination called ketafol and its utility in balancing sedation and hemodynamic stability.  Listeners will gain expert insights into propofol use in the ICU and a deeper understanding of patient-centered approaches to sedation.    Resources referenced in this episode:   Lewis K, Balas MC, Stollings JL, et al. A focused update to the clinical practice guidelines for the prevention and management of pain, anxiety, agitation/sedation, delirium, immobility, and sleep disruption in adult patients in the ICU. Crit Care Med. 2025;53(3):e711-e727.  Russotto V, Myatra SN, Laffey JG, et al. Intubation practices and adverse peri-intubation events in critically ill patients from 29 countries. JAMA. 2021;325(12):1164-1172.  Boncyk C, Devlin JW, Faisal H, et al. INhaled Sedation versus Propofol in REspiratory failure in the Intensive Care Unit (INSPiRE-ICU1): protocol for a randomised, controlled trial. BMJ Open. 2024;14(10):e086946.  O’Gara B, Serra AL, Englert JA, et al. Inhaled sedation versus propofol in respiratory failure in the ICU (INSPiRE-ICU2): study protocol for a multicenter randomized controlled trial. Trials. 2025;26(1):114.

    SCCMPod-571: Sustaining Critical Care Amid Rising Demands

    Sustaining critical care delivery in today’s healthcare environment requires more than resilience—it also calls for collective solutions to systemic challenges. In this episode of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Podcast, Past President Jose L. Pascual, MD, PhD, FRCS(C), FACS, FCCM, elaborates on the session presented during the 2026 Critical Care Congress, Critical Care Under Pressure: Sustaining the Workforce and Infrastructure Amid Rising Demands. Joined by host Marilyn Bulloch, PharmD, BCPS, FCCM, Dr. Pascual examines the complex forces reshaping critical care, from shrinking ICU capacity and hospital closures to persistent workforce shortages and shifting training pipelines. He highlights concerning trends such as reduced entry into certain critical care pathways, particularly anesthesiology. At the same time, he points to encouraging growth in other pathways, with increasing participation from clinicians in emergency medicine, neurology, and surgery. The conversation underscores disparities in access to care, particularly for rural and community hospitals. Dr. Pascual explores the tension between the regionalization of specialized care and the need to maintain equitable access across health systems, emphasizing the importance of thoughtful resource distribution and collaboration across institutions. Beyond workforce numbers, the evolution of leadership in critical care is also impactful, including the migration of experienced clinicians into administrative roles and the potential need for cyclical leadership models that maintain clinical engagement. Meeting these challenges requires innovation and cooperation. Dr. Pascual highlights advancements in education, particularly the expansion of simulation-based training, as critical tools for maintaining competency and improving team performance.

    SCCMPod-569: From Monitoring to Personalized Medicine

    What is precision medicine, and how should precision medicine be handled in the face of guidelines and protocols? In this episode of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Podcast, Diane C. McLaughlin, DNP, AGACNP-BC, CCRN, FCCM, speaks with Michael R. Pinsky, MD, FAPS, MCCM, about his Thought Leader presentation at the 2026 Critical Care Congress, The Effective Management of Shock: Moving From Physiology to Guidelines to Precision Medicine and Ultimately Personalized Medicine. The panel also discusses how to titrate care for individual patients. Protocols and guidelines are the foundation for patient care and are instrumental for having all healthcare professionals on the same baseline when treating patients. Precision medicine involves individualizing care for a specific patient, and Dr. Pinsky emphasizes that guidelines should never supersede an understanding of pathophysiology at the bedside, including observing your patient and paying attention to how individual patients respond to specific treatments. Monitoring the individualized response is required for the best care. Michael R. Pinsky, MD, FAPS, MCCM, is a professor of critical care medicine, bioengineering, and anesthesiology at the University of Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.

    SCCMPod-568 CCM: Neuromuscular Blockade in Adults With ARDS

    In this episode of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Podcast, Diane C. McLaughlin, DNP, AGACNP-BC, CCRN, FNCS, FCCM, is joined by Aarti Sarwal, MD, FAAN, FNCS, RPNI, FCCM, and Brian L. Erstad, PharmD, FCCP, FASHP, MCCM, to discuss the 2026 guidelines for neuromuscular blockade in adult patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. The guidelines, “Society of Critical Care Medicine Guidelines for the Administration of Neuromuscular Blockade in Adults With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome,” were published in the March issue of Critical Care Medicine. Drs. Sarwal and Erstad discuss how the evidence in two key trials, ACURASYS and PETAL-ROSE, has helped shape the recommendations provided in the SCCM guidelines. Despite how influential these trials were in shaping the recommendations, only conditional recommendations were made due to low or very low quality of evidence. The lack of evidence proved to be a driving factor in including a call to action in the guidelines. Future research priorities largely revolve around precision medicine and finding more patient-specific interventions to improve patient outcomes. Aarti Sarwal, MD, FAAN, FNCS, RPNI, FCCM, is a professor of neurology and the division chair of neurocritical care at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) School of Medicine in Richmond, Virginia, USA.
