They were randomly divided into the control group (C group) and the remimazolam group (R group), with 30 cases in each group. C group was given normal saline + propofol, and R group was given remimazolam + propofol. The hemodynamic indexes, propofol dosage, sedation and analgesia effects, patient and doctor satisfaction, success rate of operation and perioperative complications of the two groups were compared.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The perioperative heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) of R group were more stable than those of C group (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &amp;lt; 0.05) throughout the procedure.
