Poor sleep in the ICU is associated with important complications, including delirium, longer duration of mechanical ventilation, prolonged hospital stay, and increased mortality. Current non-drug approaches to improve sleep, such as reducing noise and light and clustering nursing care, may provide limited benefit and are often difficult to implement consistently. Safe and effective drug treatments for sleep in critically ill older patients remain limited.\n\nLemborexant is a dual orexin receptor antagonist that promotes sleep by blocking wake-promoting pathways in the brain. Unlike many traditional sleep medications, lemborexant has minimal effects on breathing and has been shown to be well tolerated in older adults with insomnia. However, its effects on sleep and delirium have not been studied in critically ill patients.\n\nThis study is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled feasibility and pilot trial conducted in the surgical intensive care unit of Siriraj Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand. The study will enroll 100 critically ill postoperative patients aged 65 years or older who are expected to remain in the ICU for at least 48 hours. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either low-dose lemborexant (2.5 mg) or a matching placebo once nightly for three consecutive nights. All participants will also receive standard non-pharmacologic sleep-promoting care used in the ICU.\n\nThe main goals of this pilot study are to evaluate the feasibility and safety of administering lemborexant in elderly ICU patients and to explore its potential effects on sleep and delirium. Sleep will be assessed using both subjective questionnaires completed each morning and objective wrist-worn actigraphy to measure sleep duration and sleep stages. Delirium will be assessed twice daily using a standardized delirium screening tool for up to seven days or until ICU discharge. Additional outcomes include medication adherence, adverse events, duration of mechanical ventilation, length of ICU and hospital stay, and in-hospital mortality.\n\nThe results of this study will provide important preliminary data on the feasibility, safety, and potential benefits of lemborexant in critically ill older adults and will help inform the design of future larger clinical trials aimed at improving sleep and reducing delirium in the ICU.",[135,136,137],"Sleep Disturbance","Delirium","Critical Illness",[67,139,135,136,140,141],"Dual Orexin Receptor Antagonist","Intensive Care Unit","Critically Ill Elderly","2026-10-05",{"date":144,"type":145},"2026-10-08","ACTUAL",{"date":147,"type":145},"2026-09-01",{"date":149,"type":129},"2028-06-30",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
