Endpoints

Primary endpoints

  • {"endpoint_text":"- Sedation variables: RASS scale, Bispectral Index (BIS), Delta BIS index, required doses of intravenous or inhalation sedation during the study period, Placement of the Sedaconda device: in the mouth or on the inspiratory branch, recording of the ISOef value (expiratory fraction gas) during the study period. The upper permitted ISOef limit will be set at 1%. Respiratory, hemodynamic variables, neuromomitorization and infectious status","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Measured using RASS scale, BIS and Delta BIS index monitoring; recording required doses of IV or inhalation sedation; recording placement of Sedaconda device (mouth or inspiratory branch); recording ISOef (expiratory gas fraction) with an upper permitted ISOef limit of 1%; monitoring respiratory and hemodynamic parameters, neuromonitoring measures and infectious status throughout study period."}

Secondary endpoints

  • {"endpoint_text":"- Adverse effects observed throughout the study. • Awakening time and presence/absence of delirium in this patient awakening process. • Alteration of liver function throughout the study. • Alteration of kidney function throughout the study. • Days spent in ICU. • Days spent in the hospital. • Mortality in ICU. • Hospital mortality","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Adverse effects collected/recorded throughout study; awakening time and presence/absence of delirium assessed during patient awakening (BIS monitoring referenced elsewhere); liver and kidney function assessed by laboratory measures recorded over study; days in ICU/hospital counted; ICU and hospital mortality recorded."}

The value indicates the degree of nociception and the required doses of intravenous opioids during the study period.","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Analgesia-related data collected via NOL device values indicating degree of nociception, and recording required doses of intravenous opioids during study period."}
