Brief Summary

This is a randomized prospective study. This objective is the impact of "relaxing touch" on the use of chemical restraint for patients in intensive care from the lifting of sedation until extubation.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
chemical restraint1 year

Comparison of the proportion of patients who received chemical restraint during the sedation release phase until extubation between the two groups (experimental and control arms)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
respiratory rateT=0, T=30 nimutes, T=60 minutes, T= 90 minutes

Comparison of vital parameters between the 2 groups. Comparison between respiratory rate (/min), cardiac rate (/min), pressur (mmHG), and ventilation mode.

Touch could relax patients and thus lower the values of vital parameters. The patients included in a experimal group will be relaxation touch twice per day 12 hours apart

cardiac frequencyT=0, T=30 nimutes, T=60 minutes, T= 90 minutes

Comparison of vital parameters between the 2 groups. Comparison between respiratory rate (/min), cardiac rate (/min), pressur (mmHG), and ventilation mode.

Touch could relax patients and thus lower the values of vital parameters. The patients included in a experimal group will be relaxation touch twice per day 12 hours apart

self-extubations1 year

Comparison of the proportion of self-extubations between the 2 groups

patient discomfortT=0, T=30 nimutes, T=60 minutes, T= 90 minutes

Comparison of patient discomfort parameters between the 2 groups. The discomfort will be evaluated thank to body expression (unrest) and facial expression according to the BPS scale. The BPS scale is a behavioral pain scale used in intensive care for the sedated and ventilated adult patient.

There discomfort parameters will be evaluated immediately after the relaxation touch, 30 min after, 60 min after and 90 min after.

The patients included in a experimal group will be relaxation touch twice per day 12 hours apart

Ratio chemical restraint use1 year

Ratio per patient corresponding to the number of days with chemical restraint use between inclusion and exclusion/total number of days between inclusion and extubation.
