Research Abstract |
The present study investigated the effects of flumazenil administration after midazolam sedation on cerebral circulation. After flumazenil administration, the augmented cerebral autoregulation due to midazolam sedation did not change. Also, sole administration of flumazenil improved cerebral autoregulation with decreases in cerebral blood flow. These results suggested that flumazenil dose not antagonize the effects of cerebral circulation with midazolam, and induces altered cerebral autoregulation with slight decrease in cerebral blood flow.
