Introduction: The administration of benzodiazepines has been linked to the occurrence of postoperative delirium (POD) among patients undergoing surgery. In this review, we aim to appraise the current controversy regarding the role of remimazolam in POD.
Evidence acquisition: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials was conducted to examine the effects of remimazolam administration on postoperative delirium compared to propofol from inception to April 2024. We conducted a comprehensive search of PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Wanfang, and ZhiWang Chinese databases. In the fixed-effects and random-effects statistical models, pooled risk ratios (RRs) or mean differences, 95% CIs, and P values were estimated for endpoints. The trial sequential analysis was used for sensitivity analysis.
Evidence synthesis: Among the 479 records screened, 11 randomized controlled trials with 1682 patients were eligible for inclusion. POD did not differ between groups (RR,0.82; 95% CI 0.53-1.26; P=0.36; df=10; I2=42%). There were no statistically significant differences between groups in the incidence of nausea and vomiting, hypoxemia, and length of stay. However, remimazolam had a lower incidence of hypotension and bradycardia than propofol. Analyses of subgroups did not reveal a difference in delirium based on the type of surgery, assessment timing, or definition of cognitive impairment. This result has been supported by the trial sequential analysis.
Conclusions: Based on the available evidence, perioperative remimazolam administration is not associated with a significant rise in the incidence of POD.

Intraoperative hemodynamic monitoring is crucial for managing patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD) undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) due to their complex cardiovascular and pulmonary abnormalities. Traditionally, pulmonary artery catheterization (PAC) has been the standard for hemodynamic monitoring during OLT. However, the use of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has increased due to its real-time visualization of cardiac and vascular structures, which aids in managing hemodynamic instability during the three surgical phases of OLT: pre-anhepatic, anhepatic, and neo-hepatic. TEE provides dynamic assessment of preload, afterload, and cardiac output and has been shown to detect complications such as right and left ventricular dysfunction, intracardiac thrombus, and pulmonary embolism. Although TEE in patients with ESLD poses risks, particularly in the presence of esophageal varices, studies show a low incidence of complications when performed by experienced operators. Focused TEE protocols have proven effective in detecting common causes of hemodynamic instability with fewer views. This review summarizes the applications and safety considerations of TEE during OLT.
