Changes in oxygen supply-demand balance during induction of general anesthesia: an exploratory study using remimazolam.
This study was performed to evaluate the changes in oxygen supply-demand balance during induction of general anesthesia using an indirect calorimeter capable of measuring oxygen consumption (VO2) and carbon dioxide production (VCO2). ⋯ General anesthetic induction with remimazolam decreased VO2, VCO2, and DO2.
