Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the dose of Propofol required to achieve a target sedation score ( RASS of 0 to -2) when used in combination with Ketamine versus FentanylTimepoint: At Baseline, 24 Hours, 48 Hours after sedation.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1) To compare the residual effect on sedation fue to Ketamine versus Fentanyl on stopping the infusion after 72 hours 2) To compare the anti inflammatory effects of Propofol and Ketamine versus Propofol and Fentanyl by measuring serum TNF alfa and IL 6 levels 3) To compare the dose of injection Noradrenaline required to achieve MAP more than or equal to 65 mmhg with each combination of sedative agentsTimepoint: 48 hours
