Efficacy and Safety of Ciprofol for Sedation in Critically Ill Patients After Cardiac Surgery: A Single-Center, Prospective, Randomized Controlled Trial

In summary, ciprofol provides non-inferior sedation efficacy and a comparable safety profile to propofol in critically ill patients following cardiac surgery. A numerical trend toward lower hypotension incidence was observed with ciprofol, which warrants further validation in future studies.
