Delirium is an organic mental syndrome significantly associated with long-term cognitive decline, increased hospital stays and higher mortality. This systematic review of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) with meta-analysis assesses the association of remimazolam with postoperative cognitive function and delirium compared with non-benzodiazepine hypnotics.
Systematic review of RCTs with meta-analysis.
PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and Web of Science databases up to 27 April 2024.
Adult patients undergoing general anaesthesia or sedation procedures; use of remimazolam as the primary hypnotic or as an adjunct, administered via intermittent bolus or continuous infusion; comparison with other hypnotics or sedatives; evaluation of cognitive function or delirium.
Twenty-three RCTs with 3598 patients were included. The incidence of delirium was not significantly different between remimazolam and other sedatives in general anaesthesia and sedation procedures [ n = 3261; odds ratio (OR) = 1.2, 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.76 to 1.91; P = 0.378843; I2 = 17%]. Regarding cognitive function evaluation, remimazolam showed no difference compared with the control group in Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores on the first postoperative day ( n = 263; mean difference = 0.60, 95% CI, -1.46 to 2.66; P = 0.5684; I2 = 90%) or on the third postoperative day ( n = 163; mean difference = 1.33, 95% CI, -0.72 to 3.38; P = 0.2028; I2 = 93%). Remimazolam exhibited superiority over the control group in MMSE scores on the seventh postoperative day ( n = 247; mean difference = 0.53, 95% CI, 0.30 to 0.75; P < 0.0001; I2 = 28%).
Remimazolam does not increase the incidence of delirium or cognitive impairments compared with non-benzodiazepine hypnotics. However, the analysis showed that the type of surgery significantly influenced the incidence of delirium. Additionally, remimazolam was associated with better short-term postoperative cognitive function.

谵妄是一种器质性精神综合征,与长期认知功能下降、住院时间延长和死亡率升高显著相关。本项对随机对照试验(RCT)进行的系统评价及荟萃分析,评估了瑞马唑仑与非苯二氮䓬类催眠药相比,与术后认知功能和谵妄的相关性。
对RCT进行系统评价及荟萃分析。
截至2024年4月27日的PubMed、Embase、Cochrane图书馆和科学网数据库。
接受全身麻醉或镇静程序的成年患者;使用瑞马唑仑作为主要催眠药或辅助药物,通过间歇性推注或持续输注给药;与其他催眠药或镇静剂进行比较;评估认知功能或谵妄。
纳入了23项RCT,共3598例患者。在全身麻醉和镇静程序中,瑞马唑仑与其他镇静剂相比,谵妄发生率无显著差异[n = 3261;优势比(OR)= 1.2,95%置信区间(CI)为0.76至1.91;P = 0.378843;I² = 17%]。关于认知功能评估,在术后第一天,瑞马唑仑与对照组相比,简易精神状态检查表(MMSE)评分无差异(n = 263;平均差异 = 0.60,95% CI为 -1.46至2.66;P = 0.5684;I² = 90%),在术后第三天也无差异(n = 163;平均差异 = 1.33,95% CI为 -0.72至3.38;P = 0.2028;I² = 93%)。在术后第七天,瑞马唑仑的MMSE评分优于对照组(n = 247;平均差异 = 0.53,95% CI为0.30至0.75;P < 0.0001;I² = 28%)。
与非苯二氮䓬类催眠药相比,瑞马唑仑不会增加谵妄或认知障碍的发生率。然而,分析表明手术类型对谵妄发生率有显著影响。此外,瑞马唑仑与术后较好短期认知功能相关。
