Abstract
Introduction:
Intravenous sedation and analgesia are widely used in minor surgeries.
Remifentanil and remimazolam are advantageous in this setting because of their rapid onset of
action, and short duration of action leading to a rapid recovery. However, the two drugs combined
need to be titrated to avoid airway-related adverse events.
Case Presentation:
This article reports a case of severe respiratory depression and severe laryngeal
spasm induced by remifentanil and remimazolam when they were used for analgesia and sedation
in a patient undergoing oral biopsy.
Conclusion:
We aim to improve awareness about the safety of these drugs among anesthesiologists
and increase their ability to manage the risk associated with their use.
