The Role of Remazolam in Reducing the Incidence of Postoperative Delirium in Elderly Patients

Remimazolam is a new drug innovation in anesthesia. It combines the properties of two unique drugs already established in anesthesia - Midazolam and remifentanil.

Propofol (2,6-diisopropylphenol) is a hypnotic agent that is used as an induction agent and as a maintenance anaesthetic delivered by continuous i.v. infusion or intermittent i.v. bolus

Midazolam, like diazepam, is a benzodiazepine anxiolytic drug, which is used to treat anxiety, but its t ½ is much shorter or only about 2 h compared with 43 h for diazepam
