Overview

Brief Summary

Remimazolam is a novel short-acting benzodiazepine drug that acts on the benzodiazepine binding site of gamma-aminobutryic acid (GABA) A receptor, is metabolized by esterase, and has a context-sensitive half-time of about 6-7 minutes. Looking at some previous studies using Remimazolam, the safety and efficacy as a general anesthetic have been sufficiently proven.

In particular, compared to intravenous anesthetic agents such as propofol, the action time of anesthetics is relatively longer, but the frequency of hypotension is low. However, most studies have been conducted on patients of American Society Anesthesiologist (ASA) class I-II, and studies on patients with high severity have not yet been sufficiently secured.

Therefore, this study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of Remimazolam as an anesthetic with Sevoflurane in terms of hemodynamics in patients with high severity undergoing OPCAB surgery.

Arms & Interventions

remimazolam group

In the Remimazolam group as an induction dose 6 mg/kg/h of remimazolam with 0.5-1.0 mcg/kg of sufentanil was injected together. If consciousness was lost, rocumerone 1 mg/kg was given intravenously, and endotracheal intubation was performed when sufficient muscle relaxation was achieved 2 minutes later. Maintenance of anesthesia is achieved by using a programmed infusion pump with remimazolam 1 mg/kg/h (up to 2 mg/kg/h) and sufentanil effect site concentration of 0.4 to 0.5 to reach the appropriate depth of anesthesia. The optimal level of anesthesia is based on maintaining a bispectral index (BIS) of 35-65.

Intervention: Remimazolam Injection [Byfavo]

sevoflurane group

After injection of 2-5 mg of midazolam and 0.5-1.0 mcg/kg of sufentanil as an induction dose, 1 mg/kg of rocumerone is given intravenously when consciousness is lost, and endotracheal intubation is performed when sufficient muscle relaxation is achieved 2 minutes later. For maintenance of anesthesia, the concentration of sevoflurane and sufentanil effect site concentration is 0.4 to 0.5 to reach the appropriate depth of anesthesia, and the optimal degree of anesthesia is based on maintaining the BIS 35 to 65.

Intervention: Sevoflurane

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

cardiac index (T4)

Time Frame: 5 minutes before operation

The cardiac index (CI) at that time was measured and compared between the two groups.

cardiac index (T5)

Time Frame: 10 minutes after starting left internal mammary artery dissection

The cardiac index (CI) at that time was measured and compared between the two groups.

cardiac index (T6)

Time Frame: 10 minutes after starting left anterior descending coronary artery anastomosis

The cardiac index (CI) at that time was measured and compared between the two groups.

cardiac index (T7)

Time Frame: 10 minutes after starting Y-graft anastomosis of graft vessels

The cardiac index (CI) at that time was measured and compared between the two groups.

Secondary Outcomes

  • NE dose(During surgery(from induction of anesthesia to end of surgery))
  • Incidence of hypotension(During surgery(from induction of anesthesia to end of surgery))
