Midazolam GTT

Published

Quick question for my critical care folks.....

What is your typical rates that you run midazolam gtts? I worked an agency shift last night and my patient was on 20mg/hour of midazolam and they said that was the norm for them that their docs didn't particularly mind. I had him down to 11mg/hr and off his levophed when I left and his neuro assessment/behavior was no different on 11 vs 20/hr.

What's your standard?

Max is 20mg/hr. We usually have Fentanyl/Versed running and add Propofol if needed.
