About this study

Propofol is an intra lipid and alkali phenol chemically it is unrelated to sedative agents or anaesthetic. Midazolam is a banzodiazepen. Most of its properties are similar to diazepam. It is a common practice to use sedatives to provide comfort and decrease "ventilator-asynchrony" in critically ill patients that may require prolonged invasive mechanical ventilation. The other reason to employ sedatives is to reduce the anxiety associated with the inaviseve procedures routinely conducted in the ICU.
