Description

Evaluation of early administration of simvastatin in the prevention and treatment of delirium in critically ill patients undergoing mechanical ventilation (MoDUS): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial


Lancet Respir Med. 2017 Sep;5(9):727-737. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanres/article/PIIS2213-2600(17)30234-5/fulltext


Interpretation: These results do not support the hypothesis that simvastatin modifies duration of delirium and coma in critically ill patients.
