Total Intravenous Anesthesia Using Remimazolam for Transcarotid Approach Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The transcarotid approach was introduced in Japan in April 2024 as an alternative approach for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Because carotid artery blood flow is reduced on one side during the procedure, there is a risk of intraoperative brain stroke. Therefore, it is crucial to check for cerebral complications immediately after the procedure. We report a case involving an 87-year-old female who underwent transcarotid TAVR under general anesthesia with remimazolam and remifentanil. The operation was completed in a short period. There was no evidence of hypotension during the induction of anesthesia, and intraoperative blood pressure control was easy. However, there was a decrease in local oxygen saturation for approximately nine minutes intraoperatively. Following the administration of flumazenil, the patient was quickly awakened, and neurological findings were confirmed to be normal. The patient was discharged without complications. Our findings suggest that remimazolam, an ultra-short-acting benzodiazepine, is feasible for the transcarotid TAVR procedure due to its minimal circulatory impact and ability to facilitate rapid and reliable arousal.
