Propofol for Post-intubation sedation
Adult weight-based dosing has a median of 0.01 mg/kg across 5 published protocols, with the middle half between 0.005 and 0.01.
Doses far off from what other protocols give are likely misreads, so they are left out until checked. How that works.
Adult, weight-basedmg/kg

Values in mg/kg. One value per source (that source's median), so a document listing a medication five times still gets one vote.
