About this study

Official title: The Comparison of Dexmedetomidine and Midazolam for the Sleep of Mechanical Ventilated Intensive Care Unit Patients

The investigators are going to compare the sleep quality and quantity between dexmedetomidine group and midazolam group using 24 hour polysomnography in critically ill patients. And the investigators also compare the incidence of delirium between the two groups.

Read the detailed description

Sleep is very important for cognitive and immune function. However, patients in intensive care unit (ICU) have a very poor sleep.

Almost all ventilated patients in intensive care unit (ICU) take a sedative drug. In Korea, most commonly used sedative drugs are dexmedetomidine and midazolam.

The investigators are going to compare the sleep quality and quantity between dexmedetomidine group and midazolam group using 24 hour polysomnography. And the investigators also compare the incidence of delirium between the two groups.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Dexmedetomidine groupDexmedetomidine group is the patients who sedated with dexmedetomidine in intensive care unit. We will randomly allocate using www.randomizer.org. They will sedate at the level of RASS -2. The dose of dexmedetomidine will be 0.2-0.7ug/kg/hr.
Midazolam groupMidazolam group is the patients who sedated with midazolam in intensive care unit. We will randomly allocate using www.randomizer.org. They will sedate at the level of RASS -2. The dose of midazolam will be 0.05-0.1 mg/kg/hr.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The differences of sleep stage, sleep efficiency, arousal index and delirium between dexmedetomidine group and midazolam group

    Measured: during ICU stay

What does the primary outcome measure?

The differences of sleep stage, sleep efficiency, arousal index and delirium between dexmedetomidine group and midazolam group (time frame: during ICU stay). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
