PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From the start of administration of Precedex (hour 0) to the discharge from the intensive care unit (ICU) (up to Month 33, at the longest).

Population: The safety analysis set comprised of participants who satisfied the inclusion criteria and had received Precedex at least once. Participants with invalid registration or without informed consent were excluded.

An adverse drug reaction (ADR) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to Precedex in a participant who received Precedex. A serious ADR was an ADR resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Relatedness to Precedex was assessed by the physician.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: At the end of administration of Precedex (up to Month 33, at the longest)

Population: The effectiveness analysis set comprised of participants in the safety analysis set who had effectiveness evaluation by the physician at the end of Precedex administration. Participants who received Precedex for an out-of-scope indication, or those who received inadequate duration or dose of Precedex were excluded.

Overall effectiveness of Precedex was evaluated at the end of Precedex administration by the physician. Clinical effectiveness was evaluated as effective, not effective, or indeterminate by the physician. Clinical effectiveness proportion was defined as the proportion of responders divided by the total number of responders and non-responders.
