The Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale (88.5%) and Clinical Pain Observation Tool (40.2%) were commonly used for monitoring. Agents of choice were propofol (73.9% prior to ECMO and 56% within 48\u00a0h after initiation) and fentanyl (57.3% and 40.2%), with increasing preference for dexmedetomidine after ECMO initiation (14.5% prior to and 25.6% after initiation). Routine neuromuscular blockade use beyond 48\u00a0h after cannulation was rare (1.3%). Common strategies to reduce sedatives included sweep gas titration (74.4%) and minimizing nocturnal interventions (63.7%). Most respondents believe antipsychotics also work to this effect (57.3%).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Sedation strategies for adult ARDS patients receiving VV ECMO seem to be influenced by time from cannulation and patient factors.
