Dexmedetomidine Versus Midazolam for Intensive Care Sedation of Children
July 20, 2011 updated by: Ullevaal University Hospital
A Prospective, Double-blind Study of Dexmedetomidine Versus Midazolam for Intensive Care Sedation of Children
Dexmedetomidine will be tested against midazolam in a prospective, randomized, double-blind study of intensive care children, age 2-17 years.
The investigators' primary hypothesis is that time from end of medication to extubation will be shorter with dexmedetomidine sedation.
