Esketamine exerts analgesic effects and has pharmacological properties of bronchodilation and elevation of mean arterial pressure, making it an interesting analgesic agent for patients with ARDS. Therefore, we conducted a randomized controlled trial comparing the effects of esketamine/midazolam and remifentanil/midazolam on respiratory mechanics and oxygenation in mechanically ventilated...
