Cardiovascular Safety of Clonidine and Dexmedetomidine in Critically Ill Patients after Cardiac Surgery

<div>Drug dosages during dexmedetomidine and clonidine infusion. The clonidine and dexmedetomidine doses decreased by −0.14 (−0.35–0.00) mcg/kg/h and −0.12 (−0.69–0.21), respectively. Values indicate median ± interquartile range. Solid line (──) indicates clonidine patients; dashed line (- - -) indicates dexmedetomidine patients. Values represent median (interquartile range).</div>
