Sedative comparison for blood pressure after heart bypass surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study compares two sedatives (remimazolam and propofol) given to people after coronary bypass surgery to see which one better keeps blood pressure stable while they are on a breathing tube in the intensive care unit.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 60 years or older.
- You must have had coronary artery bypass surgery and be in the cardiac surgery intensive care unit at Zhongshan Hospital.
- You are expected to need a breathing tube for more than 8 hours after surgery.
- You must be free of serious cognitive (thinking) problems or delirium (confusion) before surgery.
- You cannot have certain heart rhythm problems (like second-degree heart block or persistent slow heart rate).

This study compares two ways of managing blood pressure during heart bypass surgery to see which is better for patient outcomes. The goal is to help doctors choose the right blood pressure targets during surgery.
This trial tests a medication called Remimazolam Besylate to sedate patients who need a breathing tube after heart surgery. The goal is to help patients relax while they recover in the intensive care unit.
This trial tests whether a medication called remimazolam can help prevent atrial fibrillation—a common, irregular heart rhythm that can happen after surgery. It focuses on people having a specific planned type of heart bypass surgery and checks if the study medication reduces postoperative rhythm problems.
This trial compares the anesthesia medicines remimazolam and propofol during major surgery to see how patients do afterward. It may help guide which anesthetic is safer or leads to better recovery in higher-risk patients.
This study compares two sedative medications (remimazolam and dexmedetomidine) to see which one better prevents confusion or disorientation (called delirium) after heart surgery. Participants receive one of the two medicines during their operation, and researchers monitor them for signs of delirium during recovery.
This trial compares two sedative medicines (remimazolam and propofol) given during heart ablation procedures. The study uses brain-wave monitoring to see which medicine provides better sedation and recovery. It's for people who are already scheduled for this procedure with a specific doctor.
