NCT ID NCT04235608
First seen May 01, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study looked at whether a sedation drug called sevoflurane, given as a gas to breathe, could help people with severe lung injury (ARDS) live longer and need a breathing machine for fewer days. About 700 adults were randomly assigned to receive either sevoflurane or the standard IV drug propofol. The goal was to see if sevoflurane improves outcomes like survival and time off the ventilator.
