Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.

GroupTitleDescriptionWith the outcomeAnalysedClinicalTrials.gov code
Group 1MidazolamPatients received either etomidate or midazolam.059EG000
Group 2Etomidate
Patients received either etomidate (0.3 mg/kg) or midazolam (0.1 mg/kg) intravenously before rapid sequence intubation in a double-blind fashion. The dose of each medication was chosen according to current physician practice and previous study findings. Identical study vials containing either etomidate or midazolam, in volume-equivalent concentrations, were prepared by our pharmacy department and stored in kits that also contained a variety of commonly used paralytic agents. Kits were labeled with numbers that reflected the assignment generated by a randomization sequence generator and placed in our automated medication dispensing cabinet (Omnicell, Inc., Mountain View, CA). The remainder of the patients' care, both in the ED and in the ICU, was directed according to the treating physician.
