简要总结

Our aim is to compare outcomes of patients with benzodiazepine-refractory alcohol withdrawal syndrome who are treated with either a phenobarbital-based or a lorazepam based protocol.

详细描述

  • This study is a prospective, open-label, randomized, controlled trial.
  • The electronic medical record will be used to identify patients who have a diagnosis of alcohol withdrawal or are receiving alcohol withdrawal. Subjects who are anticipated to meet inclusion criteria will be pre-consented for the study using an informed consent process. see informed consent form.
  • Subjects will not be enrolled and randomized until they have met inclusion criteria.
  • If a patient meets criteria, but is deemed non-decisional or unable to give consent, the patient's medical decision maker will undergo the informed consent process.
  • After enrollment, participants will be randomized to either the control group (lorazepam-based therapy) or the study group (phenobarbital-based therapy)
  • Personnel unassociated with patient screening, enrollment, or follow up will create the allocation sequence and will use a random, computerized number generator. The allocation sequence will then be transferred to sequentially numbered, opaque envelopes for purposes of allocation concealment. These sequentially numbered envelopes, which are blinded to clinical trial coordinators/physicians, will be handed out in order as patients are enrolled. Clinical trial coordinators/physicians will verify treatment eligibility and informed consent before opening the envelope to obtain the treatment assignment.
  • The study group will be placed on the phenobarbital-based protocol as described below in procedures. The control group will be placed on the lorazepam-based protocol, also listed below in procedures.
  • All medications in the study are FDA approved. No investigational medicines will be used.
  • Data will be collected on each participant as noted below in measurements.
  • The data will be analyzed and published as noted above in the statistical analysis plan and data use and management section.

入选标准

  • Patients will be eligible for randomization if he/she has met one of the following three conditions:
  • has required more than 10 mg of lorazepam within a one hour time period,
  • has required more than 30 mg of lorazepam within a four hour time period, or
  • requires admission/transfer to the intensive care unit for primarily uncontrolled alcohol withdrawal symptoms

排除标准

  • Patients will be excluded from the study if he/she:
  • has a traumatic brain injury or other neurological condition requiring frequent neurological assessment (stroke, intracranial hemorrhage, active seizures on admission)
  • has severe hypotension requiring vasopressor support
  • is less than 18 years of age
  • is actively pregnant
  • has an allergy to either of the drugs being studied (phenobarbital or lorazepam)
  • is already intubated at the time of randomization

研究组 & 干预措施

Phenobarbital based treatment

Active Comparator
  • The phenobarbital group will undergo management with a phenobarbital based treatment protocol with additional symptom triggered therapies.
  • On day 1, the phenobarbital group receive a loading dose of phenobarbital intravenous 10mg/kg (actual body weight) with a maximum dose of 1 g/100 mL
  • On day 2 of study protocol, and no sooner than 12 hours after loading dose, phenobarbital 64.8 mg is administered every 12 hours for two doses.
  • On day 3 of study protocol, patients will receive phenobarbital 32.4 mg every 12 hours for two doses.
  • On day 4 of study protocol, patients will receive phenobarbital 32.4 mg once, to be given 24 hours after last scheduled dose.
  • Throughout the 4 day protocol, the patient will have phenobarbital 65 mg every 6 hours as needed available either IM or IV, starting no sooner than 30 minutes after the loading dose.

干预措施: Phenobarbital (Drug)

Lorazepam based treatment

Active Comparator
  • The lorazepam group will undergo management with a lorazepam based treatment protocol with additional symptom triggered therapies.
  • On Day 1, the lorazepam group will be started on scheduled lorazepam 4 mg every 6 hours
  • After day 1, the scheduled lorazepam dose will be modified based on the total lorazepam requirements from the previous day and divided into 4-6 doses.
  • A lorazepam infusion, at physician discretion, will be available at any point if the dose of scheduled and PRN lorazepam being given is too high or frequent to effectively be administered.
  • Once symptoms are well controlled on lorazepam based therapy, the total dose given over the past 24 hours will be calculated and weaned by approximately 10-20% per day when clinically appropriate.
  • Throughout the entire protocol, 2-4 mg lorazepam IV q 30 minutes PRN will be available for a goal CIWA <6 or RASS -1 to 0.

干预措施: Lorazepam (Drug)
