Title
Dexmedetomidine vs midazolam for monitored anaesthesia care during cataract surgery.
Authors
Alhashemi, J A
Abstract
Cataract surgery is commonly performed under local anaesthesia with midazolam sedation. Dexmedetomidine, a sedative-analgesic, is devoid of respiratory depressant effects, and its use in cataract surgery has not been reported. This double-blind study compared the use of dexmedetomidine and midazolam in patients undergoing cataract surgery.
