Esophagogastric variceal bleeding (EGVB) is one of the most serious and common complications of liver cirrhosis. Endoscopic hemostasis is the most widely used and important method for the prevention and treatment of EGVB. The treatment of varicose veins hemostasis under gastroscope has the problem of long operation time. Patients are prone to nausea, vomiting and excessive secretions due to nervousness and fear, which affect endoscopic insertion and observation, leading to failure of ligation and massive bleeding, and even death. Therefore, appropriate analgesic and sedative drugs are necessary to ensure endoscopic treatment and improve the prognosis. Remimazolam, an ultra-short-acting benzodiazepine drug, is obtained by introducing metabolizable methyl propionate side chain into midazolam. It may have a good effect on sedation during endoscopic hemostasis in cirrhotic patients with ruptured esophageal and gastric varices.
Remazolam besylate was used for sedation during endoscopic hemostasis in patients with esophageal and gastric varices rupture and bleeding in liver cirrhosis. The onset time, recovery time and incidence of adverse reactions were observed.
