Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial
Sedation guidelines for midazolam infusion during combined spinal and epidural anesthesia.
To investigate the adequate infusion dose regimen of midazolam to induce sedation with the Ramsay score 4 with rapid onset during combined spinal and epidural anesthesia ⋯ During combined spinal and epidural anesthesia, midazolam 0.6 mg/kg/hr given until closing of the eyes (for 1.6 min) followed by midazolam 0.15 mg/kg/hr provides rapidly induced sedation, with a Ramsay score of 4 and amnesia with stable hemodynamics and respiration.

Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial
Gender may affect the hemodynamic response to induction and intubation in young adults.
To determine whether gender affects the hemodynamic response to anesthesia induction and intubation in young adults. ⋯ Pressor response is different in women than men, suggesting the difference of the response might result from the gender differences.
