The overall purpose of this study is to identify a medication that might treat and/or prevent delirium in intensive care unit (ICU). Currently, there is no proven medical therapy for prevention or treatment of delirium. Ramelteon is a medication approved for insomnia. We hypothesize that ramelteon may help regulate the day/night cycle and decrease ICU delirium.
