Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare total intravenous anesthesia with remimazolam vs total intravenous anesthesia with propofol in moderate-to-high risk patients undergoing major elective noncardiac surgery under general anesthesia. The primary hypothesis is that total intravenous anesthesia with remimazolam can increase days alive and out of hospital at postoperative day 30 compared with total intravenous anesthesia with propofol.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Remimazolam TIVA

Remimazolam is administered at 6-12 mg/kg/h intravenously for anesthesia induction and at 1.0-2.0 mg/kg/h for maintenance of general anesthesia. The dose is titrated to maintain Bispectral Index value between 40 and 60.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Remimazolam

Intervention Type DRUG

Remimazolam is administered intravenously for induction and maintenance of general anesthesia.

Propofol TIVA

Propofol 1.5-2.5mg/kg is administered intravenously for anesthesia induction and propofol at 4-12mg/kg/h is used for maintenance of general anesthesia. The dose is titrated to maintain Bispectral Index value between 40 and 60.
