Breathing in calm: new sedation method may keep ICU patients Clear-Headed
NCT ID NCT04341350
First seen Jun 17, 2026 · Last updated Jun 17, 2026
Summary
This study compares two ways to sedate ICU patients who need a breathing machine: inhaled sedation (using isoflurane gas) versus standard intravenous (IV) sedation. The goal is to see if the inhaled approach reduces the chance of delirium—a state of confusion that often occurs in the ICU. About 250 adults on ventilators for at least 24 hours will take part.
