Comparing Sedatives for Intracranial Pressure Control in Traumatic Brain Injury (ICP-TBI)
Effect of Propofol, Midazolam, and Dexmedetomidine on Intracranial Pressure and Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Moderate-to-Severe Traumatic Brain Injury Undergoing Urgent Neurosurgical Intervention
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of propofol, midazolam, and dexmedetomidine on intracranial pressure control and clinical outcomes in adults with moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury undergoing urgent neurosurgical intervention.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Which sedative agent provides better control of intracranial pressure, assessed by optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD), during the first 24 hours after neurosurgical intervention?
- How do the three sedative agents compare in achieving target sedation depth, maintaining hemodynamic stability, and improving short-term clinical outcomes such as ICU mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, and ICU length of stay?
Participants will be randomly assigned to receive propofol, midazolam, or dexmedetomidine for 24 hours of continuous sedation. Clinical, hemodynamic, and neurological outcomes will be assessed and compared among the three study groups.

Подробное описание
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of mortality and long-term disability worldwide. Prevention of secondary brain injury through optimal control of intracranial pressure (ICP) is a key component of intensive care management in patients with moderate-to-severe TBI. Sedative agents are routinely used to facilitate mechanical ventilation, reduce cerebral metabolic demand, and improve ICP control. However, uncertainty remains regarding the optimal sedative agent for this patient population.
Propofol, midazolam, and dexmedetomidine are among the most commonly used sedatives in neurocritical care. Each agent has distinct pharmacological characteristics that may influence intracranial pressure, hemodynamic stability, neurological assessment, and clinical outcomes. Despite widespread use, direct comparative evidence between these agents remains limited.
This prospective randomized clinical trial aims to compare the effects of propofol, midazolam, and dexmedetomidine on intracranial pressure control and clinical outcomes in adult patients with moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury undergoing urgent neurosurgical intervention. Intracranial pressure will be assessed noninvasively using serial optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) measurements obtained by ocular ultrasonography during the first 24 hours of continuous sedation.
Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of the three sedative regimens according to a standardized protocol targeting a Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) score of -3 to -4. Standard neurocritical care management and analgesia protocols will be applied to all study groups.
The study will evaluate the comparative effects of the three sedative agents on intracranial pressure control, sedation quality, hemodynamic stability, adverse events, secondary brain injury, and short-term clinical outcomes. The findings are expected to provide evidence to guide sedative selection in patients with moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury, particularly in settings where invasive intracranial pressure monitoring is not routinely available.
