A 2025 study conducted a review in Cardiovascular disease requiring sedation in catheterization lab or CCU. Sedation protocols (propofol, dexmedetomidine, remifentanil, sufentanil, fentanyl, midazolam) was evaluated. Individualized sedation protocols utilizing multiple agents, such as propofol and dexmedetomidine, optimize patient outcomes and maintain safety in cardiac catheterization laboratories.
