RCT
PEDro=8
N=30 |
Population: TBI; Midazolam (MDZ, n=15): Age Range: 18-65 yr; Gender: Male=14, Female=1; Mean Time Since Injury=12.86 hr; Median GCS=4.73. Propofol (PROP, n=13): Age Range: 18-65 yr; Gender: Male=13, Female=0; Mean Time Since Injury=9.07 hr; Median GCS=5.07.
Intervention: Patients were randomly allocated to receive MDZ (n=15) or PROP (n=13) sedation. Outcomes were assessed at baseline and 3 mo. Outcome Measure: Glasgow Outcome Score (GOS), Mortality, Disability. |
- There was no significant difference between MDZ and PROP groups in number of patients with good outcomes (53% versus 54%).
- Of the patients who had a poor outcome, there was no significant difference in the mortality rate between MDZ and PROP groups (20% versus 38%; p=0.07).
- Of the patients who had a poor outcome, there was no significant difference in the severe disability rate between MDZ and PROP groups (20% versus 15%; p=0.8).

Case Series
N=184 |
Population: TBI; Northern Cohort (n=66): Mean Age=32.9 yr; Gender: Male=53, Female=13. Southern Cohort (n=118): Mean Age=31.2 yr; Gender: Male=89, Female=29.
Intervention: Patients received 0.1 mg/kg midazolam without a restricted maximal dose (Group 1) or with a maximal dose of 5 mg (Group 2).
Outcome Measure: Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP), Hypotension, Dose. |
- Patients in the Group 1 received significantly higher doses than those in Group 2 (0.106 mg/kg versus 0.059mg/kg, p<0.0001).
- A significant relationship was found between dose and hypotension following intubation (p=0.032) as well as decrease in SBP (p=0.022).
