NCT ID NCT04527198
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how often brainstem problems occur in COVID-19 patients who are on a ventilator and deeply sedated in the ICU. Researchers checked brainstem reflexes using a simple scoring system, both during sedation and a few days after sedation stopped. The goal was to understand the link between brainstem function and other body systems, but no treatment was tested.
