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.

Study Arms (2)

remimazolam group

EXPERIMENTAL

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.

Drug: Remimazolam Injection [Byfavo]

sevoflurane group

OTHER

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.

Drug: Sevoflurane

Interventions

Induction dose: 6 mg/kg/h with sufentanil Maintenance dose: 1\~2 mg/kg/h with sufentanil If arousal occurs during surgery, rapidly increase the infusion rate of remimazolam to 12 mg/kg/h and infuse for 1 minute. If the patient's arousal persists after these measures, stop remimazolam infusion and replace with another drug.

remimazolam group

Induction dose: 2\~3 mg midazolam with sufentanil Maintenance: Adjust the concentration to be BIS 35-65 based on 0.5 mac If arousal occurs during surgery, raise the concentration of sevoflurane to 1.5 MAC (increase the total gas flow rate to 8 l/min) and if arousal persists after 1 minute, administer midazolam 2-3 mg.

sevoflurane group
