There is one clinical trial.
A continuous infusion of Dexmedetomidine (DEX) will be administered to 80 patients admitted to Critical Care because of signs of Respiratory Insufficiency requiring non-invasive ventilation. Measurements of respiratory performance and quantification of cellular and molecular inflammatory mediators. The primary outcome will be the avoidance of mechanical ventilation with secondary outcomes duration of mechanical ventilation, avoidance of delirium after sedation and association of mediators of inflammation to outcomes. Outcomes will be compared to a matched historical control (no DEX) series
Description: (Presence/Absence) requirement of mechanical ventilation
Measure: Mechanical ventilation Time: expected within first three days (non conclusive due to lack of evidence yet)Description: Duration of mechanical ventilation if it is required (hours from the start)
Measure: Duration of mechanical ventilation Time: expected within first seven days (non conclusive due to lack of evidence yet)Description: Delirium criteria as defined in DSM-4
Measure: Delirium on recovery from sedation Time: First 24 hours after retiring dexmedetomidine sedation
