Efficacy and Safety of Remimazolam Besylate for Sedation in Post-Non-Cardiac Surgery Patients Requiring Mechanical Ventilation: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Overview

A multi-center, prospective, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, no-inferiority clinical trial conducted across 5 tertiary medical centers in China. The objective of this RCT is to evaluate the sedative efficacy and safety profile of remimazolam besylate compared with dexmedetomidine in patients requiring mechanical ventilation following non-cardiac surgery. The study hypothesized that remimazolam besylate is non-inferior to dexmedetomidine regarding the primary efficacy outcome.

Interventions

  • Drug Remimazolam Besylate
    patients will be sedated with remimazolam via intravenous pump on the day of ICU admission, the dosage will titrate with the depth of sedation evaluated with RASS. If the target sedation depth could not to achieved within the prespecified maximum dose range of remimazolam, a standardized rescue sedation protocol will intiated as follows: an intravenous bolus of propofol at 0.2mg/kg will administered. Sedation depth will evaluated 5 minutes post-injection. The identical dose of propofol bolus wil
  • Drug Dexmedetomidine Hydrochloride
    patients will be sedated with dexmedetomidine hydrochloride via intravenous pump on the day of ICU admission, the dosage will titrate with the depth of sedation evaluated with RASS. If the target sedation depth could not to achieved within the prespecified maximum dose range of remimazolam, a standardized rescue sedation protocol will intiated as follows: an intravenous bolus of propofol at 0.2mg/kg will administered. Sedation depth will evaluated 5 minutes post-injection. The identical dose of
