    AbstractWe report a case of a parturient with severe cardiac disease requiring elective termination of pregnancy. The patient underwent successfully monitored anesthesia care using remimazolam for dilation and curettage. The patient remained hemodynamically stable and appropriately sedated while achieving optimal procedural conditions. Remimazolam is an ultrashort acting benzodiazepine that is being used with increasing frequency in short procedures requiring sedation. Patients with complex cardiac comorbidities undergoing surgical procedures may receive maximum benefit from this novel medication due to its stable hemodynamic profile and rapid metabolism.Copyright © 2025 International Anesthesia Research Society.
