AB  - The  most  common  intravenous  benzodiazepines  administered  in  the  perioperative  setting  are  midazolam,  diazepam,  and  lorazepam.  Benzodiazepines  produce  hypnosis,  sedation,  anxiolysis,  anterograde  amnesia,  anticonvulsion,  and  centrally  produced  muscle  relaxation.  They  do  not  provide  any  analgesia.  Benzodiazepines  are  primarily  used  for  premedication  and  sedation  and  also  for  induction  of  general  anesthesia  in  high  doses.  Benzodiazepines  may  be  associated  with  higher  risk  of  postoperative  cognitive  dysfunction  in  the  elderly.
