Review of clinical advances in the procedural sedation application of remimazolam
As a novel benzodiazepine derivative, remimazolam overcomes the limitations of traditional sedatives, offering a new option for procedural sedation in palliative care. Its unique pharmacologic properties ensure rapid onset, controllable duration of action, and high safety, thereby enhancing clinical procedural efficiency and patient experience. This systematic review of its clinical applications provides scientific evidence for the rational and standardized use of remimazolam in clinical practice. Future research should focus on expanding its application in more complex clinical scenarios and conducting long-term safety and efficacy studies to further promote the widespread use of remimazolam in procedural sedation.
