Study of Remimazolam for Lung Surgery in Older Adults
Treatments studied
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether a newer sedative drug (remimazolam) helps elderly patients breathe better and think more clearly after keyhole lung surgery. It compares this drug to a standard one to see which one leads to better oxygen levels and less confusion after the operation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
