• W4313220423 abstract "Introduction: Alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS) is a potentially life-threatening medical condition and even though benzodiazepines (BZDs) are the standard of care in the treatment of AWS, therapy-associated complications like respiratory depression requiring ventilatory support and the use of adjunctive pharmacotherapy persist. Studies have shown promising results with phenobarbital (PB), but have been limited to use in the emergency department or as an agent of choice for refractory AWS in the intensive care unit (ICU). Our study aims to compare the ICU admissions rate between lorazepam versus PB in treating AWS in hospitalized patients. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study on patients hospitalized for AWS from 2019 to 2022. Patients were categorized into those who received lorazepam using the revised Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment of alcohol scale (CIWA-Ar) and those who received PB based on the Richmond Agitation- Sedation scale (RASS). The primary outcome was the rate of admission to the ICU. Secondary outcomes included total length of hospital and ICU stay, mechanical ventilation rate, use of adjunctive medications and mortality. Results: 300 patients met the inclusion criteria, of whom 148 received lorazepam and 152 received PB. The mean patient age was 56 years and 51 years in the PB and lorazepam groups, respectively (p=0.001). There were significant differences between lorazepam and PB in terms of ICU admission (13.5% vs 5.3%, p=0.014), mechanical ventilation rate (9.5% vs 0.7%, p=0.0004), need for adjunctive dexmedetomidine (9.5% vs 1.3%, p=0.0016) and mean length of hospital days (6.16 vs 4.89 days, p value =0.004), and ICU days (1.07 vs 0.21 days, respectively, p value=0.003). Conclusions: AWS patients treated with PB per protocol were found to have a significantly decreased rate of ICU admission, need for invasive ventilation and adjunctive dexmedetomidine treatment, along with reduced ICU and total length of hospital stay as compared to those treated with lorazepam. We conclude that our results support the growing evidence of efficacy of PB over lorazepam as the primary treatment for AWS patients, due to its mechanism of action that better targets AWS pathophysiology. Prospective, randomized controlled studies that compare PB vs BDZs for AWS are needed." @default.
