Welcome to the next installment of the Anesthesia Patient Safety podcast hosted by Alli Bechtel.  This podcast is an exciting journey towards improved anesthesia patient safety.

Have you heard of Remimazolam? Do you use this medication in your clinical practice? We are not talking about Midazolam and Remifentanil. We are talking about a new medication on the anesthesia block, Remimazolam. Tune in for Part 1 of a two-part series on this novel and practice-changing medication including the unique pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, known limitations, adverse events, and contraindications as well as key clinical practice implications and current knowledge gaps for safe, widespread adoption.

Additional sound effects from: Zapsplat.
