Intravenous (IV) sedation is convenient, and many different IV agents are used. They are not always effective, however, and there are disadvantages to every intravenous agent used in clinical practice. Inhalational anesthetics are a useful alternative and have specific advantages. Further technologic refinements in the technique of inhalational sedation of mechanically ventilated patients may lead to wider clinical applications.
静脉镇静很方便，且使用的静脉药物种类繁多。然而，它们并非总是有效，而且临床实践中使用的每种静脉药物都有缺点。吸入性麻醉剂是一种有用的替代方法，且具有特定优势。机械通气患者吸入镇静技术的进一步技术改进可能会带来更广泛的临床应用。
