A physician suggests that a patient being mechanically ventilated, needing immediate transport to CT scan, and having severe pain be given IV fentanyl (Sublimaze) rather than morphine sulfate for pain management. Why is fentanyl (Sublimaze) preferred?
◦ Rapid administration does not have any hemodynamic consequences.
◦ Weaning of a continuous infusion is never needed due to its short half-life.
◦ It is not likely to cause respiratory depression.
◦ It has a more rapid onset and a shorter duration of action.
