Interventions
Drug: Daily interruption of midazolam
Registration Number
NCT03406936
Lead Sponsor
Assiut University
Brief Summary

Daily interruption of sedation is one of the modalities which is known to enhance early weaning and separation from mechanical ventilation . Daily sedation interruption is also known to help decreasing incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia. The new modality is no sedation.

Detailed Description

there is an increase of incidence of chronic obstructive lung disease associated respiratory failure which necessitates invasive mechanical ventilation. It is well known that one of the bundles for enhanced recovery of such cases is the daily interruption of sedation . Recently studies have demonstrated the feasibility of just using sedation for initiation of mechanical ventilation, then utilization of no sedation technique as a more this offers less side effects .
