NCT03860129

Brief Summary

The MIRUS system (TIM, Andernach, Germany) as well as the AnaConDa uses a reflector to conserve volatile anaesthetics (VA). Both systems can be paired with ICU ventilators, but MIRUS features an automated control of end-tidal VA concentrations (etVA). We compare depth of 0.5 MAC inhalational long-term sedation with Isoflurane (ISO), Sevoflurane (SEVO) or Desflurane (DES).
