Abstract

Previous studies have shown that remimazolam has a lesser effect on hemodynamics and postoperative cognitive function than propofol. In this study, we recruited sixty elderly patients undergoing neurointerventional operation under remimazolam or propofol anesthesia. The results showed that in comparison with propofol, remimazolam provided more stable hemodynamics but higher bispectral index during anesthesia induction. Patients' cognitive function declined slightly after operation, but did not differ between the two anesthetic protocols.
