Dose optimization of remimazolam as an adjunct to propofol for gastroscopy sedation: a randomized double-blind trial
Yunchang Mo
IntroductionPropofol-based sedation for gastroscopy is effective but may cause dose-dependent cardiorespiratory depression; therefore, optimizing adjunct strategies to reduce propofol exposure is clinically important.MethodsWe conducted a prospective, single-center, randomized, double-blind, dose-response trial to evaluate the propofol-sparing effect of remimazolam during procedural sedation for gastroscopy. A total of 150 ASA I-II adults aged 18–59 years were randomly assigned to receive remima
