The use of midazolam in spinal anesthesia

Abstract

When midazolam is combined with bipuvicaine, it produced a more efficient anesthesia with a longer duration than when bipuvicaine alone was administered. This was achieved without adding any significant side effects. The duration of postoperative analgesia was also longer in the group that received midazolam and bipuvicaine; however, the duration of the motor block remained the same.
