Abstract
Despite the common use of anxiolytics, Previous studies have not demonstrated a clear benefit of oral lorazepam or diazepam on abortion related pain or anxiety. Utilization of a more potent and higher dose benzodiazepine has the potential to be a more effective premedication. Oral midazolam is an appealing option as it has a fast onset, wide safety margin, short duration of action, a wide safety margin, a short duration of action, and a reliable dose-dependent effect due to its fast onset, wide safety margin, short duration of action, and a reliable dose-dependent effect and a reliable dose dependent. Amnesic effect. We hypothesized that the anxiolysis and amnesia produced by oral midazolam would result in decreased perception of pain and anxiety during the abortion experience. The objective of this work is to estimate the effect of oral midazolam on patient pain and anxiety perception during first-trimester surgical abortion.
