A prospective, open-label, randomized clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of remimazolam in patients undergoing EBUS-TBNA: REST trial design. BMC Pulm Med 2024; 24:243. [PMID: 38760702 PMCID: PMC11100028 DOI: 10.1186/s12890-024-03067-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 05/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Remimazolam is safe and effective for moderate sedation during flexible bronchoscopy, but its safety and efficacy during endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) remains undetermined. The REST trial (NCT06275594) will be a prospective randomized study of remimazolam in patients undergoing EBUS-TBNA with conscious sedation. The primary aim is to evaluate whether remimazolam is safe and effective for moderate sedation during EBUS-TBNA compared to real-world midazolam and on-label midazolam. METHODS The REST trial will recruit 330 patients from four university hospitals with mediastinal lesions suspected of being lung cancer who are eligible for EBUS-TBNA under moderate sedation. The participants will be randomized into groups using remimazolam, real-world midazolam, and on-label midazolam (US prescribing information dosage) to perform EBUS-TBNA for procedural sedation. The primary endpoint will be procedural success using composite measures. DISCUSSION The REST trial will prospectively evaluate the efficacy and safety of remimazolam during EBUS-TBNA under moderate sedation. It will provide information for optimizing sedation modalities and contribute to practical benefits in patients undergoing EBUS-TBNA. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT06275594). Prospectively registered on 15 February 2024.

Abstract
This study reports a rare case of high-dose midazolam abuse and Munchausen Syndrome. A 48-year-old female physician was referred by a psychiatrist to the Toxicology Department of Imam Reza Hospital for abstaining from 300 mg/day of parenteral midazolam. She had mimicked the symptoms of Crohn's disease; therefore, she had undergone 15 colonoscopies and 40 times MRI or CT scan, all of which were normal. Six months earlier, she had switched oral methadone to 30 mg/day of intravenous midazolam. She also had several skin lesions on injection sites that she considered pyoderma gangrenosum. When the total daily dose of intravenous midazolam was switched to oral bioequivalence of clonazepam, she could not tolerate withdrawal (Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment Scale-Benzodiazepines = 68). Therefore, she received midazolam again as a continuous intravenous infusion. Within 7 days, the whole dose was replaced by the bioequivalence oral dose of clonazepam. She was also treated with carbamazepine and cognitive behavior therapy. Afterward, she was transferred to the psychiatric ward for further psychiatric treatment. Dependency on a high dose of midazolam could be treated by tapering off the long-acting benzodiazepine.

Abstract
Background In pediatric dentistry, sedation aims to eliminate anxiety to facilitate the completion of dental procedures. Sedation in children is a multidimensional field that includes the child, parents/guardians, and the health care team. The rectal route is generally painless, making it suitable for children who are afraid of needles. This route has several advantages over the oral route, including reduced patient cooperation requirements, a faster and more predictable onset, and less physical trauma than the intravenous and intramuscular routes. This case series aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and success rate of rectal sedation with ketamine and midazolam in the management of uncooperative children during dental treatment. Case presentation Ten healthy children with definitely negative behavior were enrolled in this study. Each child was given 7 mg/kg of ketamine in combination with midazolam 0.1 mg/kg by the rectal route. The mean onset sedation time was 9.5 minutes, and pulpotomy procedures were done. Behavioral response was monitored throughout treatment using the Ohio State University Behavioral Rating Scale (OSUBRS), and the depth of sedation was measured using the University of Michigan Sedation Scale (UMSS). The Houpt General Behavior Scale was used to estimate the treatment success rate based on the overall behavior rating. All 10 cases showed good anxiolysis and cooperation following rectal administration, with no side effects observed. Conclusions Rectal administration of ketamine in combination with midazolam may be considered a reliable method in the management of uncooperative children during dental treatment. No adverse effects were observed during or after the sedation procedure.

Eco-friendly electrochemical sensor for determination of conscious sedating drug "midazolam'' based on Au-NPs@Silica modified carbon paste electrode. Talanta 2024; 267:125238. [PMID: 37774450 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.125238] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 08/09/2023] [Accepted: 09/22/2023] [Indexed: 10/01/2023]
Abstract
Benzodiazepines (BZDs) are a group of drugs prescribed for their sedating effect. Their misuse and addictive properties stipulate different authorities for developing simple, fast and accurate analytical methods for instantaneous detection. Differential pulse voltammetric technique (DPV) was utilized for the selective assay of midazolam hydrochloride (MDZ) in the pure, parenteral dosage forms and plasma samples. A chemically modified carbon paste electrode (CPE) was implemented during the study. The method depended on the electroreduction of MDZ on the surface of the electrode over a potential range of 0.0 V to -1.6 V. The electrode was fabricated using silica nanoparticles (Si-NPs) which were incorporated into the composition of the CPE and used to enhance the electrode performance. Then, to enhance the sensitivity of the method, a chronoamperometric modification step was applied for depositing gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) on the carbon paste electrode surface. Modification with Au-NPs showed a higher reduction current peak for MDZ with well-defined peaks. Various parameters such as pH of the media and measurements scan rate were investigated and optimized to enhance the sensor sensitivity. The sensor showed a dynamic linear response over a concentration range of 4.0 × 10-7 M to 2.9 × 10-4 M of MDZ with a LOD of 2.24 × 10-8 M using 0.1 M acetate buffer (pH 5.6). The sensor was validated in accordance with the ICH guidelines regarding accuracy, precision and specificity for the selective assay of MDZ in the presence of excipients. A greenness evaluation was performed using three different assessment tools, namely, the "Green Analytical Procedure Index" (GAPI), the "Analytical Greenness metric" (AGREE) and the "Whiteness Analytical Chemistry tool" (WAC) using the RGB12 model.

Relationship between brain iron dynamics and blood-brain barrier function during childhood: a quantitative magnetic resonance imaging study. Fluids Barriers CNS 2023; 20:60. [PMID: 37592310 PMCID: PMC10433620 DOI: 10.1186/s12987-023-00464-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 08/19/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mounting evidence suggests that the blood-brain barrier (BBB) plays an important role in the regulation of brain iron homeostasis in normal brain development, but these imaging profiles remain to be elucidated. We aimed to establish a relationship between brain iron dynamics and BBB function during childhood using a combined quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to depict both physiological systems along developmental trajectories. METHODS In this single-center prospective study, consecutive outpatients, 2-180 months of age, who underwent brain MRI (3.0-T scanner; Ingenia; Philips) between January 2020 and January 2021, were included. Children with histories of preterm birth or birth defects, abnormalities on MRI, and diagnoses that included neurological diseases during follow-up examinations through December 2022 were excluded. In addition to clinical MRI, quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM; iron deposition measure) and diffusion-prepared pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling (DP-pCASL; BBB function measure) were acquired. Atlas-based analyses for QSM and DP-pCASL were performed to investigate developmental trajectories of regional brain iron deposition and BBB function and their relationships. RESULTS A total of 78 children (mean age, 73.8 months ± 61.5 [SD]; 43 boys) were evaluated. Rapid magnetic susceptibility progression in the brain (Δsusceptibility value) was observed during the first two years (globus pallidus, 1.26 ± 0.18 [× 10- 3 ppm/month]; substantia nigra, 0.68 ± 0.16; thalamus, 0.15 ± 0.04). The scattergram between the Δsusceptibility value and the water exchange rate across the BBB (kw) divided by the cerebral blood flow was well fitted to the sigmoidal curve model, whose inflection point differed among each deep gray-matter nucleus (globus pallidus, 2.96-3.03 [mL/100 g]-1; substantia nigra, 3.12-3.15; thalamus, 3.64-3.67) in accordance with the regional heterogeneity of brain iron accumulation. CONCLUSIONS The combined quantitative MRI study of QSM and DP-pCASL for pediatric brains demonstrated the relationship between brain iron dynamics and BBB function during childhood.

Abstract
Anxiety contributes to postsurgical pain, and midazolam is frequently prescribed preoperatively. Conflicting results have been described concerning the impact of midazolam on pain. This study aims to evaluate the effect of systemic midazolam on pain after open inguinal hernia repair, clarifying its relationship with preoperative anxiety. A prospective observational cohort study was conducted in three Portuguese ambulatory units between September 2018 and March 2020. Variable doses of midazolam were administered. Postsurgical pain was evaluated up to three months after surgery. We enrolled 306 patients and analyzed 281 patients. The mean preoperative anxiety Numeric Rating Scale score was 4 (3) and the mean Surgical Fear Questionnaire score was 22 (16); the mean midazolam dose was 1.7 (1.1) mg with no correlation to preoperative anxiety scores. Pain ≥4 was present in 67% of patients 24 h after surgery and in 54% at seven days; at three months, 27% were classified as having chronic postsurgical pain. Preoperative anxiety correlated to pain severity at all time points. In multivariable regression, higher midazolam doses were associated with less pain during the first week, with no apparent effect on chronic pain. However, subgroup analyses uncovered an effect modification according to preoperative anxiety: the decrease in acute pain occurred in the low-anxiety patients with no effect on the high-anxiety group. Inversely, there was an increase in chronic postsurgical pain in the very anxious patients, without any effect on the low-anxiety group. Midazolam, generally used as an anxiolytic, might impact distinctively on pain depending on anxiety.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Invasive cardiac catheterization (CC) temporarily increases pain, discomfort, and anxiety. Procedural sedation is deployed to mitigate these symptoms, though practice varies. Research evaluating peri-procedural patient-reported outcomes is lacking. METHODS AND RESULTS We randomized 175 patients undergoing CC to short interval ([SI] group, <6 min) or long interval ([LI] group, ≥6 min) time intervals between initial intravenous sedation and local anesthetic administration. Outcomes included: (1) total pain medication use, (2) patient-reported and behaviorally assessed pain and (3) patient satisfaction during outpatient CC. Generalized linear mixed effect models were used to evaluate the impact of treatment time interval on total medication utilization, pain, and satisfaction. Among enrollees the mean age was 62 (standard deviation [SD] = 13.4), a majority were male (66%), white (74%), and overweight (mean body mass index = 28.5 [SD = 5.6]). Total pain medication use did not vary between treatment groups (p = 0.257), with no difference in total fentanyl (p = 0.288) or midazolam (p = 0.292). Post-treatment pain levels and nurse-observed pain were not statistically significant between groups (p = 0.324 & p = 0.656, respectively. No significant differences with satisfaction with sedation were found between the groups (p = 0.95) Patient-reported pain, satisfaction and nurse-observed measures of pain did not differ, after adjustment for demographic and procedural factors. Analyses of treatment effect modification revealed that postprocedure self-reported pain levels varied systematically between individuals undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (SI = 2.2 [0.8, 3.6] vs. LI = 0.7 [-0.6, 2.0]) compared with participants not undergoing PCI (SI = 0.4 [-0.8, 1.7] vs. LI = 0.7 [-0.3, 1.6]) (p = 0.043 for interaction). CONCLUSION No consistent treatment differences were found for total medication dose, pain, or satisfaction regardless of timing between sedation and local anesthetic. Treatment moderations were seen for patients undergoing PCI. Further investigation of how procedural and individual factors impact the patient experience during CC is needed.

Transl Pediatr 2022; 11:1751-1758. [PMID: 36506775 PMCID: PMC9732608 DOI: 10.21037/tp-22-161] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2022] [Accepted: 10/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To alleviate anxiety before surgery is a significant concern for the pediatric anesthesiologist. Midazolam has been generally used as a premedication, and compelling data regarding effective dose to mitigate anxiety is lacking. The current trial addressed the comparable efficacy of intravenous midazolam with different doses regarding the anxiety state, ease of child-parental separation, and mask compliance as premedication in pediatric patients undergoing tonsillectomy. METHODS Three hundred and twelve children aged 2-8 years were randomly assigned, 104 per group, to receive intravenous 0.03 mg/kg midazolam (group A), 0.05 mg/kg midazolam (group B), or saline control (group C), 40 minutes before surgery. We assessed the anxiety state every 10 min after premedication with modified Yale preoperative anxiety scale (mYPAS), evaluated the emotional state during separation with parental separation anxiety scale (PSAS), and compared their compliance to mask oxygen supply with mask acceptance score (MAS). RESULTS Children premedicated with 0.05 mg/kg midazolam achieved a sedated state more rapidly than those who received 0.03 mg/kg midazolam (5.9±2.3 vs. 7.0±3.9, P=0.02). The proportion of satisfactory parental separation and compliance to mask ventilation was not different between midazolam groups, which was superior to saline control. The children receiving 0.05 mg/kg midazolam stayed longer in postoperative care unit than those receiving 0.03 mg/kg midazolam and saline. The incidence of postoperative adverse events was rare and comparable among groups. CONCLUSIONS Intravenous administration of a single dose of midazolam 0.05 and 0.03 mg/kg produces similar effects on sedation status, parental separation, and mask induction acceptance, except for rapid-onset and long sedation duration in pediatric patients premedicated with 0.05 mg/kg midazolam. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04266340.

Comparison of midazolam versus captopril in patients with uncomplicated hypertensive urgency in emergency ward: Double-blind randomized clinical trial. ARYA ATHEROSCLEROSIS 2022; 18:1-8. [PMID: 36817344 PMCID: PMC9937673 DOI: 10.48305/arya.2022.26128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2021] [Accepted: 09/13/2021] [Indexed: 02/24/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The urgency of uncomplicated blood pressure (BP) is known as a sudden rise in BP. The aim of this study was to evaluate the intravascular administration of midazolam as an emergency care to control BP against captopril in patients with uncomplicated hypertension (HTN). METHODS The present study was a double-blind parallel randomized clinical trial (RCT) study that was performed on patients with urgent HTN referred to Imam Hossein Hospital in Shahroud, Iran, in 2018. Patients with BP higher than 180/110 mmHg and with healthy vital organs were selected randomly and allocated into three groups of 43 participants. All patients' BP in both arms, and after a period of 10 minutes in the left arm, was checked and after administering the medication was checked again for 4 times of 15 minutes till 1 hour complete. RESULTS There were significant differences between systolic (P = 0.024), diastolic (P = 0.001), and mean BP (P = 0.009) in the midazolam group before and after treatment. The group of midazolam and captopril showed the greatest reduction of BP before, in the middle, and after carrying out the treatment methods. As such, systolic, diastolic, and mean BP showed 23.5% (P = 0.047), 17.4% (P = 0.021), and 20.5% (P = 0.031) reduction, respectively. CONCLUSION Midazolam can be used as an effective and low-risk drug for lowering BP. Midazolam also has a faster effect on lowering BP.

Oro-mucosal midazolam maleate: Use and effectiveness in adults with epilepsy in the UK. Epilepsy Behav 2021; 123:108242. [PMID: 34371288 DOI: 10.1016/j.yebeh.2021.108242] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2021] [Revised: 07/14/2021] [Accepted: 07/24/2021] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Oro-mucosal midazolam maleate (OMM) with suitable training to family and carers is being increasingly recognized as the treatment of choice to mitigate the development of status epilepticus in non-hospital community settings. There are no studies to describe the use, effectiveness, and suitable dosing of OMM in adults with epilepsy in community settings. PURPOSE To describe the use, effectiveness, and dosing of OMM in the emergency treatment of epileptic seizures in community settings. METHODS A retrospective observational study (2016-17) design was used with participant recruitment from four UK NHS secondary care outpatient clinics providing epilepsy management. Study sample was of adult people with epilepsy (PWE) having had a recent seizure requiring OMM. Data on patient demographics, patient care plans, details of a recent seizure requiring emergency medication, and dose of OMM were collected from medical records. RESULTS Study data from 146 PWE were included. The mean age of PWE was 41.0 years (SD 15.2) and mean weight was 64.8Kg (SD 18.2). Fifty-three percent of PWE were recorded as having intellectual disability. The most frequently used concomitant medications were lamotrigine (43%). The majority of seizures occurred at people's homes (n = 92, 63%). OMM was most often administered by family/professional care-givers (n = 75, 48.4%). Generalized (tonic/clonic) seizures were recorded in most people (n = 106, 72.6%). The most common initial dose of OMM was 10 mg (n = 124, 84.9%). The mean time to seizure cessation after administration of this initial dose was 5.5 minutes (SD = 4.5, Median 5.0, IQR 2.1-5.0). Only a minority of seizures led to ambulance callouts (n = 18, 12.3%) or hospital admissions (n = 13, 9%). CONCLUSION This is the first observational study describing the use and effectiveness of OMM in adults in community settings. Minimal hospital admissions were reported in this cohort and the treatment was effective in ending seizures in adults in community settings.
