The purpose of this study is to determine the difference in the duration of mechanical ventilation, to evaluate the difference in ICU length of stay and to determine the difference in the overall dose of sedation medications between the between participants who were monitored using Bispectral index monitoring (BIS) monitors and those who were not.

| BIS group | Device | Participants will be placed on BIS monitoring continuously until extubation, transfer to another facility, change in status to comfort measures, or if the patient expires. The BIS monitoring system offers a continuous processed electroencephalographic measurement used to assess cerebral activity and can monitor the electrophysiologic effects of sedation and anesthetics.BIS monitoring offers numerical values which have been validated to reflect various sedation levels. BIS levels range from 0 to 100 with greater than 100 corresponding to wakefulness. Values less than 60 indicate deep sedation and values less than 40 correspond to deep anesthesia |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Median ventilator time reported in hours | from the time the patient was intubated to the time they were extubated, changed to comfort measures, transferred to another facility, or expired(about 4-6 days) |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| ICU length of stay | During ICU discharge or transfer out of ICU (about 5-7 days after admission to ICU) | |
| Amount of sedation medication used | From start of ventilation to end of ventilation (about 4-6 days) |

| Non-BIS group | Other | The usual protocol for titrating sedation will be followed using various sedation assessment scales such as Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale (RASS), Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Ramsay Sedation Scale (RSS), or Sedation Agitation Scale (SAS) per physicians choice. |
