| Intervention |
continuous intravenous sedation in post operative mechanically ventilated patients with ketamine dexmedetomidine combination |
Post operative patients shifted to ICU for elective mechanical ventilation for 24 to 48 hours patients comparable in terms of etiology of ICU admission and characteristics at entry to ICU will be considered for this study. Written and informed consent will be obtained from the attendants after explaining in detail about the study. Patients received in ICU will be managed as per ICU protocol. Patients will be put on assist controlled or spontaneous mode on ventilation with endotracheal tube as interface. Along with other treatment, all patients will be standardized in terms of analgesia used. Patients will receive inj. Tramadol 2mg/kg for analgesia and Inj.paracetamol 15mg/kg will be used as rescue analgesic, if needed. For sedation, all patients will get bolus dose of 1mg/kg ketamine followed by 0.25mg/kg/hour of continuous intravenous infusion. Along with ketamine infusion, dexmedetomidine infusion at 0.5 to 0.7 mcg/kg/hour will be started |

Along with ketamine infusion this group will receive propofol infusion at 25 to 50 mcg/kg/min. |

Brief Summary
|
Sedative agent used in critical care unit(ICU) should have to act fast and have to provide ease of titration of dose.it should provide rapid recovery following discontinuation early weaning from mechanical ventilation and early extubation.it has to be safe for all age groups and there should be minimal difference in age related pharmacokinetics.propofol is commonly used in ICU as a sedative agents.its advantage is rapid onset of action and rapid recovery followwing discountinuation but its has its own side effects like bradycardia,arrythmia and propofol infusion syndrome with prolonged continuous infusion.dexmedetomidine,highly selective alpha 2 agonist,has sedative and analgesic effects without causing any respiratory depression,but it may cause biphasic cardiovascular effects in dose dependant fashion.Ketamine ,NMDA receptor antagonist in the CNS,thereby inducing a state of dissociative anaesthesia and at lower dose it has analgesic and antihyperalgesic effects.it prevents respirotory efforts and airway reflexes.it has large therapeutic window but can cause tachyarrythmia and hypertension.contrary to previous literature itnhas been recently demonstraed to have favourable effects on intracranial and intraa abdominalpressures as well,it can be safely used as continuous infusion for short duration.to counteract the adverse effects and to add on the favorable effects,combination of drugs has been used nowadays,in the present literature propofol-fentanyl,midazolam-fentanyl and ketamine-propofol combination has been extensively studied.but there is paucity of studies for ketamine-dexmedetomidine combination. So the purpose of the study is to find out safety and efficacy of ketamine-dexmedetomidine in detail and to compare with ketamine-propofol combination for sedation in mechanically ventilated patients. |
