The Effect of Remimazolam Compared to Sevoflurane on Postoperative Shivering in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Gynecologic Surgery under General Anesthesia: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial.

ABSTRACT: Background and objectives: Anesthesia maintenance agents affect the incidence of postoperative shivering (PS) after general anesthesia. This study compared the effects of remimazolam with sevoflurane on PS in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic surgery under general anesthesia. Materials and methods: Seventy-four patients were allocated into one of two groups. In anesthesia maintenance, group S received sevoflurane and remifentanil, and group R received remimazolam and remifentanil. Results: The incidence and severity of postoperative shivering, mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), core body temperature, and the association of PS with hypothermia, MAP, or HR in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) were measured. Group R had significantl
