Safety and Efficacy of Remimazolam for General Anesthesia in Elderly Patients Undergoing Transurethral Surgery

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Remimazolam, a novel benzodiazepine, acts on the GABA receptor and is widely used for procedural sedation. To date, there are relatively few articles comparing remimazolam to propofol for general anesthesia in elderly urology patients.

Concomitant catheter drainage alleviates the thermal effect of holmium lasers during ureteroscopic lithotripsy: a retrospective cohort study

BMC Urology
Background Thermal control is pivotal for preventing ureter thermal injury during laser lithotripsy; however, patient-based studies have rarely addressed this topic. In recent years, we have employed a ureter catheter for irrigation drainage and measured
