Dexmedetomidine Infusion Versus Oral Melatonin for Prevention of Intensive Care Delirium

Delirium Clinical Trial

Official title:
Dexmedetomidine Infusion Versus Oral Melatonin for Prevention of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) Delirium; A Prospective Randomized Controlled Study

Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to compare the effect of dexmedetomidine infusion and oral melatonin on preventing delirium in intensive care unit (ICU) patients.

Clinical Trial Description

Delirium is experienced in 20% to 40% of the critically ill and up to 80% of mechanically ventilated (MV) medical or surgical patients . It is a confessional state that has been described as a transient global disorder of cognition, awareness, and attention and as such is not only challenging for the treating medical team, but also has a considerable impact on affected patients. It is associated with prolonged hospital length of stay and time on MV, deterioration in cognition, and increased morbidity and mortality causing additional health-care expenses. ;
