A sedative to protect the lungs and memory after lung surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests a sedative (remimazolam) given during lung surgery to see if it helps keep oxygen levels stable and protects memory and thinking after surgery. It is for older adults having lung surgery to remove a lobe.

This trial tests a medication called Remimazolam Besylate to sedate patients who need a breathing tube after heart surgery. The goal is to help patients relax while they recover in the intensive care unit.
This study tests a combination of two sedative medicines (remazolam and afentanil) to keep you comfortable and sleepy during lung surgery done through small cuts, without a breathing tube. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective for patients like you.
This trial tests a sedative called remimazolam for people who are at higher risk during a painless bronchoscopy (a lung exam). It aims to see if this drug is safe and effective for you.
This trial tests a sedative called remimazolam besylate in patients who need a breathing tube and light sedation after non-cardiac surgery. The goal is to see if it works well and is safe.
This trial compares a newer anesthetic, remimazolam, to standard care to see if it helps prevent short-term memory or thinking problems after surgery on the aortic arch (a major artery in the chest). It also checks blood markers of brain inflammation. If you are having this type of surgery, this study might help protect your memory.
