Fast Acute Sedation at Intensive Care vs. High-dose i.v. Anti-seizure Medication for Treatment of Non-convulsive Status Epilepticus (FAST-trial)

High-dose Propofol (bolus 3-5 g / kg, maintenance dose 5-10 mg / kg / hour) to - 5 on the Richmond agitation sedation scale (RASS) for 20 hours, and a single anti-epileptic drug should be added as adjunctive therapy. Addition of low-dose Midazolam (max. 0.1 mg / kg / h) is permitted if deep sedation (defined clinically by RASS -5) is not possible with Propofol alone.
