Summary
This pilot study tested a computer-controlled system that automatically delivers propofol (a sedation drug) to deeply sedated ICU patients on breathing machines. The goal was to see if the system could keep patients properly sedated while using less medication compared to standard care. Twenty adults who needed deep sedation for more than 48 hours took part. The study compared the automated system to usual sedation practices.
