Comparison of Procedural Sedation in TEE

NCT06129188

Phase 1 Completed 105 enrolled University of Alabama at Birmingham
RandomizedParallel-groupSingle-blindPrevention

Summary

The objective of this proposal is to conduct a prospective randomized study comparing the utility of sedating patients undergoing transesophageal echocardiographic studies with a novel, recently-FDA-approved sedative agent, remimazolam, versus the sedative used in our current practice at UAB, propofol. This study will investigate whether remimazolam offers any benefit over current care vis-à-vis hemodynamics or efficiency/throughput. This study will be conducted at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. All outpatients and inpatients scheduled for elective/non-emergent TEE in the UAB Heart and Vascular Center TEE lab will be considered for enrollment.
