Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine if treating delirious intensive care unit patients with haloperidol improves mortality.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Intensive care unit delirium is a serious medical condition that is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. In this study, 304 delirious mechanically ventilated subjects will be randomized to haloperidol 5mg IV every 12 hours or placebo to determine if treatment with haloperidol improves short and long-term mortality.

haloperidol

Once diagnosed as delirious, randomized to haloperidol 5 mg IV

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

haloperidol

Intervention Type DRUG

Aim #1. To conduct a RCT of IV haloperidol vs. placebo for the treatment of delirium in mechanically ventilated ICU patients. Patients in the cohort study that go on to develop delirium will be enrolled in a RCT comparing treatment with scheduled haloperidol vs. placebo. By comparing differences between treatment and placebo groups, we will test the hypothesis that treatment with scheduled haloperidol improves the primary outcome of 28-day and 90 day mortality and secondary outcomes of total delirium days, duration of mechanical ventilation, and ICU length of stay.

placebo

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* All adult (\>=18 years of age) mechanically ventilated patients admitted to the medical, surgical, trauma, or cardiothoracic ICUs of the UPMC main campus who are expected by the ICU clinical team to require \>24 hours of mechanical ventilation
