PROCEDURE

Arm I (light sedation)

If patients experience excessive preoperative anxiety they will receive light sedation of midazolam 1 mg IV.In our standard practice, it is very rare that patients receive anxiolytic premedication for craniotomies, so it is unlikely that many will require midazolam. Two IVs will be placed, one for infusion of meds and one for possible resuscitation.
