Fat emulsions can cause changes in blood-clotting and fibrinolysis. The aim of this study was to examine the relation between the use of the short-acting hypnotic propofol and alteration of the blood clotting system. In a double-blind randomized study, 36 patients with an aortocoronary bypass operation were given either midazolam/fentanyl or propofol/alfentanil. Eleven blood samples were taken at fixed times pre-, intra- and postoperatively to determine changes caused by the anesthetic agents on the hemostaseologic parameters during the whole operation. Perioperative blood pressures of both groups were measured at seven fixed points. From the beginning of the extracorporeal circulation (ECC) to the end of the operation, the measured values of the factor XIIa- and kallikrein-like activity in the propofol group were significantly higher than those of the midazolam group. Also the values of the kallikrein inhibition capacity and the indicators of fibrinolysis (t-PA and D-dimers) suggest a stronger activation of the contact phase at the start of the recirculation and as a result of it a stronger fibrinolysis within the propofol group. Besides, the hypotensive side-effect in the propofol group was evident in contrast to the midazolam group. With this investigation, a correlation between the application of propofol/alfentanil, contact phase activation with activation of the kallikrein-kinin-bradykinin system and the observed hypotension can be set up.

Background: Congenital heart diseases (CHDs) are not rare and often require an intervention at some point of time. Pediatric cardiac catheterization, a minimally invasive procedure, is performed to diagnose and to correct many cardiac abnormalities. Deep sedation with spontaneously breathing patients is the preferred technique for pediatric catheterization in the pediatric population.

Introduction: The administration of benzodiazepines has been linked to the occurrence of postoperative delirium (POD) among patients undergoing surgery. In this review, we aim to appraise the current controversy regarding the role of remimazolam in POD.
Evidence Acquisition: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials was conducted to examine the effects of remimazolam administration on postoperative delirium compared to propofol from inception to April 2024.

Objective: Remimazolam besylate and Ciprofol are newer sedatives used in minor surgeries. Propofol is a classic drug mainly used for short surgeries. This trial was conducted to compare the efficacy and safety of remimazolam besylate, ciprofol, and propofol during hysteroscopic surgeries.

Background: Maintenance of stable blood pressure (BP) during cerebrovascular bypass surgery is crucial to prevent cerebral ischemia. We compared the effect of remimazolam anesthesia with that of propofol-induced and desflurane-maintained anesthesia on intraoperative hemodynamic stability and the need for vasoactive agents in patients undergoing cerebrovascular bypass surgery.
Methods: Sixty-five patients were randomized into remimazolam (n = 31, remimazolam-based intravenous anesthesia) and control groups (n = 34, propofol-induced and desflurane-maintained anesthesia).

Introduction: Propofol is a fast-acting intravenous anaesthetic widely used for sedation and anaesthesia in gastrointestinal endoscopy, bronchoscopy, and the induction/maintenance of general anaesthesia in outpatients and inpatients; however, propofol has several undesirable effects, including injection pain, which affects the physical and mental health of patients, and cardiopulmonary depression, characterised by hypotension, bradycardia and apnea, which commonly occur in clinical practice. Ciprofol (HSK3486) is a propofol analogue with good clinical safety, high potency and some advantages over propofol, including lower injection pain and haemodynamic depression in patients undergoing gastroscopy and colonoscopy. This study aims to compare the impact of equivalent effective doses of propofol and ciprofol on haemodynamic changes in patients undergoing bronchoscopy under general anaesthesia.
