RESUMO
Midazolam, a water-soluble benzodiazepine, was used to induce anaesthesia in 32 patients for minor surgical procedures. Patients showed cardiovascular stability, smooth induction and good recovery at a dose of 0.15 mg/kg. This dose was unaffected by premedication, and as such this drug is recommended as a satisfactory induction agent for short surgical procedures (AU)
