About this trial
The proposal of this study is to compare inhaled sedation with isoflurane administered via the Sedaconda ACD-S system with intravenous sedation with propofol. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive either inhaled sedation with isoflurane administered via the Sedaconda ACD device (Sedana Medical, Uppsala, Sweden) or intravenous propofol. The primary endpoint is the number of ventilator-free days at 28 days after randomization.
