Volatiles in Critical Care After Free Flap Surgery

Prospective Evaluation of Volatile Sedation Management in Critical Care After Free Flap Surgery

• Status: Completed
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 34 (actual)
• Sponsor: Goethe University · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 18 Years – 80 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

Patients undergoing complex free flap surgery are randomised to volatile or intravenous sedation in terms of subsequent intensive care sedation, based on the in-hospital standard of care. For study purposes, differences in management (set-up times, change of filters, etc.) will be investigated in relation to accelerated awakening and possibly improved neurocognition after the end of sedation.

Conditions

• Sedation Set-up Time
• Additional Time Required for Volatile Sedation

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	critical care management	The different sedation methods result in considerable differences in terms of set-up costs and the management of the patient, which will be examined in a direct comparison.
