In critically ill patients undergoing infusive analgesic-sedation in ICU the drug is strongly affected by the abolition of swallowing reflex. We describe the case of a patient with lower limbs compartment syndrome by direct trauma with a rapid switch on third day of hospitalization from analgesic sedation using propofol-remifentanil to oxycodone/naloxone and pregabalin.http://www.pathos-journal.com/page_77.htmloxycodone/naloxonemorphineremifentanylacute pain
