Dexmedetomidine Hydrochloride Pediatric patients (45 weeks corrected gestational age to <18 years old) administered Precedex (Dexmedetomidine Hydrochloride) for "sedation during and after mechanical ventilation in the intensive care setting" |
Drug: Dexmedetomidine Hydrochloride
[Sedation during and after mechanical ventilation in the intensive care setting] For pediatric patients ages of 6 years and over, dexmedetomidine is usually administrated by continuous intravenous (IV) infusion of at a rate of 0.2 μg/kg/hr, following by continuous infusion at a range of 0.2 to 1.0 μg/kg/hr adjusted to achieve the optimal level of sedation depending on the patient's condition.
For pediatric patients with corrected gestational ages (gestational age + postnatal age) of 45 weeks to under 6 years, dexmedetomidine is usually administrated by continuous IV infusion at a rate of 0.2 μg/kg/hr, following by continuous infusion at a range of 0.2 to 1.4 μg/kg/hr adjusted to achieve the optimal level of sedation depending on the patient's condition. The dosing rate could be decreased according to the patient's condition as appropriate.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Number of participants with adverse drug reactions (ADRs) [From the start of administration of Precedex (hour 0) to the discharge from the intensive care unit (ICU)(up to Month 33, at the longest)]
Regarding Time Frame, if a participant leaves the ICU before 24 hours after the end of administration of Precedex, adverse events (AEs) observed up to 24 hours after the end of administration should be entered in the case report form (CRF) as much as possible, and the AEs should be monitored until the outcomes become known as far as possible.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Percentage of participants who are evaluated as effective (responders) by the investigator [At the end of administration of Precedex (up to Month 33, at the longest)]
Effectiveness evaluation (effective, not effective, or indeterminate) of Precedex will be performed by investigators at the end of administration of this drug.
