Dose of Remimazolam in Children for Intubation (DRIP)

December 12, 2023 updated by: Zhihong LU

Half Effective Dose of Remimazolam to Prevent Cardiovascular Response to Tracheal Intubation When Combined With Fentanyl

Remimazolam has demonstrated the potential as a valuable medication for procedural sedation and general anesthesia. However, half effective dose of remimazolam required to prevent cardiovascular response to tracheal intubation when combined with fentanyl in pediatric patients is still unknown.
