midazolam and Sleep Wake Disorders

midazolam has been researched along with Sleep Wake Disorders in 20 studies

Midazolam: A short-acting hypnotic-sedative drug with anxiolytic and amnestic properties. It is used in dentistry, cardiac surgery, endoscopic procedures, as preanesthetic medication, and as an adjunct to local anesthesia. The short duration and cardiorespiratory stability makes it useful in poor-risk, elderly, and cardiac patients. It is water-soluble at pH less than 4 and lipid-soluble at physiological pH.
midazolam : An imidazobenzodiazepine that is 4H-imidazo[1,5-a][1,4]benzodiazepine which is substituted by a methyl, 2-fluorophenyl and chloro groups at positions 1, 6 and 8, respectively.

Sleep Wake Disorders: Abnormal sleep-wake schedule or pattern associated with the CIRCADIAN RHYTHM which affect the length, timing, and/or rigidity of the sleep-wake cycle relative to the day-night cycle.

( Borgeat, A; Fuchs-Buder, T; Gachoud, JP; Suter, PM; Treggiari-Venzi, M, 1996)
"Melatonin was not only as effective as midazolam in alleviating preoperative anxiety in children, but it was also associated with a tendency towards faster recovery, lower incidence of excitement postoperatively and a lower incidence of sleep disturbance at week 2 postoperatively."5.11Melatonin vs. midazolam premedication in children: a double-blind, placebo-controlled study. ( Albassam, A; Aldammas, F; Alotibi, W; Naguib, M; Riad, W; Samarkandi, A; Thalaj, A, 2005)
"To assess and compare the impact of overnight sedation with midazolam or propofol on anxiety and depression levels, as well as sleep quality, in non-intubated patients in intensive care."5.08Overnight sedation with midazolam or propofol in the ICU: effects on sleep quality, anxiety and depression. ( Borgeat, A; Fuchs-Buder, T; Gachoud, JP; Suter, PM; Treggiari-Venzi, M, 1996)
"Five cases are reported in which confusional states and total anterograde amnesia occurred after oral intake of recommended doses of midazolam, a new ultra-short acting benzodiazepine."3.67[Confusional states following administration of the hypnotic midazolam]. ( Schneider-Helmert, D, 1985)
"Midazolam (15 mg p."2.65Effect of midazolam on sleep. ( Klotz, U; Ludwig, L; Ziegler, G, 1983)
"Midazolam was well tolerated with no side-effects."2.65Efficacy and safety of midazolam in the treatment of night terrors in children. ( Corfariu, O; Popoviciu, L, 1983)
"Midazolam has the lowest residual fraction of all known benzodiazepines and thus, administered in the appropriate dosage, also has the shortest duration of activity."1.27Pharmacokinetic and clinical considerations in the choice of a hypnotic. ( Amrein, R; Eckert, M; Haefeli, H; Leishman, B, 1983)
"Efficacy (sleep--sedation) and tolerance of 8-chloro-6-(2-fluorophenyl)-1-methyl-4H-imidazo[1,5-a][1,4]benzodiazepine (midazolam, Ro 21-3981, Dormicum) in a dosage of 10 mg to 30 mg p."1.26Evaluation of efficacy and safety of midazolam administered orally in sleep disorders. A dose-finding study. ( Buch, JP; Lupolover, R, 1981)
