Brief Summary

Sedatives are the mostly common prescription for patients with mechanical ventilation due to the disease or therapies. Ciprofol is a new intravenous anesthetic agent transformed from propofol, and has a similar sedative effect of propofol in previous study. Whether ciprofol is safe and effective similar with propofol for sedation in ICU patients with mechanical ventilation? Therefor, a multi-center, double-blind, randomized control trial was conducted with a noninferiority design, to compared the rate of successful sedation without hypotension of sedation by ciprofol or propofol in ICU patients with mechanical ventilation. A Multi-Center, Double-Blind, Randomized Controlled Trial will be launched to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ciprofol versus propofol for sedation in ICU patients with mechanical ventilation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The primary outcome is the rate of successful sedation without hypotension

    The primary outcome is the rate of successful sedation without hypotension, which have to meet the following three criteria simultaneously: 1) Sedation within the RASS target (+1 to -2); 2) No rescue therapy is used; 3) No hypotension occurs, within the first 30 minutes of administering the study drug.

    within the first 30 minutes of administering the study drug

Secondary Outcomes (11)

  • the rate of within sedation target (RASS: +1 to -2) without hypotension in the first 1hour of administering the study drug;

    within the first 1hour of administering the study drug

  • the rate of within sedation target (RASS: +1 to -2) without circulatory inhibition (defined as either hypotension or bradycardia) in the first 1hour of administering the study drug;

    within the first 1hour of administering the study drug

  • Usage of study drugs

    within the first 24hours of administering the study drug

  • Duration of mechanical ventilation

    from randomization until the date of first extubation or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 28 days

  • Extubation time

    from stopping the study drug to extubation, or death from any cause, or 28 days

  • +6 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Ciprofol

EXPERIMENTAL
Drug: Ciprofol

Propofol

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Drug: Sedation with Propofol

Interventions

During the drug administration period, propofol were IV infused at loading doses of 0.5 mg/kg, respectively, over 4 minutes ± 30 seconds depending on the physical condition of each patient. Propofol were then immediately administered at an initial maintenance dose of 1.5 mg/kg/hr, with a target sedation depth of RASS +1 to -2, based on the Pain, Agitation/sedation, Delirium, Immobility (rehabilitation/mobilization), and Sleep (disruption) guideline.

Propofol

During the drug administration period, ciprofol were IV infused at loading doses of 0.1 mg/kg, respectively, over 4 minutes ± 30 seconds depending on the physical condition of each patient. Ciprofol were then immediately administered at an initial maintenance dose of 0.3 mg/kg/hr, with a target sedation depth of RASS +1 to -2, based on the Pain, Agitation/sedation, Delirium, Immobility (rehabilitation/mobilization), and Sleep (disruption) guideline.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 80 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Adults are sequentially admitted to ICU undergoing mechanical ventilation; Patients are expected to need 6-24 hours of sedation for the target RASS ranged from +1 to -2 after randomization;
  • Aged ≥ 18 and ≤ 80 years old, with no gender requirement;
  • The patients or their family members fully understood the objectives and significance of this study and voluntarily participated and signed informed consent forms.

You may not qualify if:

  • \. Patients known to be allergic or contraindicated to ciprofol. 2. BMI\<18 kg/m2 or \>30 kg/m2. 3. Patients who had received sedation for more than 3 days in an ICU or in a general ward prior to being transferred to the ICU before signing an informed consent form.
  • \. Patients have the following medical history or evidence of any of the following conditions at screening, which may increase the sedation/anesthesia risk:
  • Cardiovascular system: New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III and IV heart failure, Adams-stokes syndrome; patients who required vasopressor (equivalent norepinephrine ≥ 1μg/kg/min) to maintain a normal blood pressure.
  • Patients with hepatic and renal failure (liver function: refer to Child-Pugh grade C; renal function: eGFR ≤ 30 mL/(min·1.73 m2) \[eGFR was calculated using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation: eGFR = 175 × serum creatinine (SCr) - 1.234 × age - 0.179 × 0.79 (females)\]; patients undergoing dialysis.
  • Patients with grand mal epilepsy and convulsion; a Glasgow coma scale (GCS) ≤ 12 points.
