Objective:to assess the opioid and benzodiazepine usage in a level iv nicu after implementation of pain guidelines.study design:guidelines were developed for infants undergoing surgical procedures and infants on mechanical ventilation. data collected for period 1 (july to december 2013) and period 2 (march to august 2014).results:gestational age, birth weight and infants with hypoxic respiratory failure or requiring major procedures were comparable in two periods. number of patients exposed to opioids decreased from 62.9% (129/205) in period 1 to 32.8% (82/250) in period 2, p=<0.001. cumulative dose exposure decreased, opioids in morphine equivalent dose, mg kg−1 (1.64 (0.38 to 6.94) vs 0.51 (0.04 to 2.33), p=0.002), sedatives in midazolam equivalent, mg kg−1 (0.16 (0.03 to 7.39) vs 0.10 (0.00 to 4.00), p=0.03). ten patients required treatment for iatrogenic opioid withdrawal versus only three in post guideline, p=0.02.conclusions:evidence-based guidelines led to significant reduction in opioids and sedatives exposure, and in the number of infants requiring methadone for iatrogenic narcotic dependence.
