Summary
This study tested whether giving a combination of two sedative drugs (dexmedetomidine and esketamine) at night can improve sleep quality for ICU patients who need a breathing tube or high-flow oxygen. 174 adults aged 50 and older took part. Researchers measured sleep stages using brain wave monitoring to see if the drug combo helped patients get deeper, more restful sleep.
