    [Sedation during and after mechanical ventilation in the intensive care setting] For pediatric patients ages of 6 years and over, dexmedetomidine is usually administrated by continuous intravenous (IV) infusion of at a rate of 0.2 μg/kg/hr, following by continuous infusion at a range of 0.2 to 1.0 μg/kg/hr adjusted to achieve the optimal level of sedation depending on the patient's condition.

    For pediatric patients with corrected gestational ages (gestational age + postnatal age) of 45 weeks to under 6 years, dexmedetomidine is usually administrated by continuous IV infusion at a rate of 0.2 μg/kg/hr, following by continuous infusion at a range of 0.2 to 1.4 μg/kg/hr adjusted to achieve the optimal level of sedation depending on the patient's condition.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions

    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.

    Measured: 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).

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Percentage of Participants Who Were Evaluated as Effective (Responders) by the Physician

    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.

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