Summary

To explore the cerebral protective effect of midazolam in patients with traumatic brain injury, we will collect blood samples from patients treated with or without midazolam when the patient is admitted to ICU, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after the admission before the use of midazolam for patients in group N1, and before the patient is treated with midazolam, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h after the use of midazolam for patients in group N2. Parameters of cerebral metabolism and inflammatory response will be obtained from the blood samples or the cerebrospinal fluid. With the aforementioned parameters, the relationship between clinical outcome and cerebral metabolism and inflammatory response will be detected with statistical method.

DRUG

Midazolam

For patients allocated into group N2, 2 mg midazolam will be injected intravenously, and then it will be given at 0.05-0.1 mg/(kg·h) by intravenous infusion. If a surgery is needed, infusion of midazolam will begin 3 hours after the operation and continue for at least 72 hours. During the sedation with midazolam, BIS should be kept at 60 to 80. Morphine can be used to supply adequate analgesia.
