Brief summary

Studying the feasibility of an initial sedation with inhalated sevoflurane during therapeutic hypothermia of cardiac arrests resuscitated patients.

Detailed description

Prospective clinical study in ICU with ventilated patients sedated with sevoflurane using the Mirus® and Anaconda® , establishing the feasibility of an initial sedation of patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest and treated with therapeutic hypothermia.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Determination of the feasibility of a sedation with inhalated sevoflurane in cardiac arrest resuscitated patientsat day 1The feasibility is evaluated by the number of side effects due to treatment until discharge from hospital.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Determination of neurological prognostic of patients at ICU and hospital dischargeat day 1
Determination of systemic complications and organ failures during hospitalisationat day 1
Evaluation of systemic inflammation and evolution with cytokinesat day 1
Evaluation of markers specific of brain ischemia (S100 protein and neuron-specific enolase)at day 1at 3 times: before starting sevoflurane sedation, 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours after starting sevoflurane sedation.
