NCT ID NCT05606315
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a new sedative called remimazolam for people in the ICU who need a breathing tube after oral or facial surgery. It compares remimazolam to two standard sedatives, propofol and midazolam, to see if it works just as well and helps patients wake up faster. The trial involves 117 adults and is currently on hold.

Remimazolam besylate
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a safer, faster-recovery sedation option for ICU patients after oral surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot trial that is currently suspended, so results are uncertain. It only tests short-term sedation, not long-term outcomes.
