Summary

This trial evaluates whether remimazolam provides superior sedation quality compared with midazolam in adults receiving invasive mechanical ventilation with ongoing vasopressor support. The primary outcome is the percentage of time within target sedation (RASS -3 to -5) without rescue sedative during the first 48 hours after randomization. Key secondary outcomes include vasopressor exposure (NEE AUC 0-48h), time to awakening, delirium incidence, ventilator-free days, and 28-day mortality.

Conditions

  • Critical Illness; Mechanical Ventilation; Shock

Interventions

DRUG

Remimazolam Besylate

Continuous IV infusion; start 0.10 mg/kg/h and titrate every 15-30 minutes in 0.025-0.05 mg/kg/h steps to target RASS -3 to -5 (allowable range -2 to -5 for clinical safety). Maximum typical rate 0.20 mg/kg/h; temporary higher rates permitted per protocol for breakthrough agitation.

DRUG

Midazolam

Continuous IV infusion; start 0.04 mg/kg/h and titrate every 15-30 minutes in 0.01-0.03 mg/kg/h steps to target RASS -3 to -5 (allowable range -2 to -5). Maximum typical rate 0.20 mg/kg/h per protocol.
