Brief Summary

Sedation is a component of the care of critically ill patients who are undergoing mechanical ventilation. Dexmedetomidine induces sedation while preserving a degree of arousability among patients in the intensive care unit (ICU), and its use has resulted in a shorter time to extubation, an increased number of days free from coma or delirium, a reduced incidence of agitated delirium, prevention of delirium, and lower mortality than other agents administered in certain populations. Hypotension and bradycardia are common side effects, which is lethal for the patients with persistent or severe hemodynamic instability. The pharmacological properties of rimazolom suggest that it is an ideal sedative drug for critically ill patients, but there is no relevant clinical research to confirm it. Therefore, this study mainly discusses the efficacy and safety of remidazolam in ICU patients with mechanical ventilation, so as to provide theoretical basis for individualized sedation treatment of patients with mechanical ventilation.
