Effect of diazepam on awareness during caesarean section under general anaesthesia

D J Turner et al. Br Med J. .

Abstract

The use of diazepam for premedication before elective caesarean section increased the incidence of unpleasant recall postoperatively, compared with atropine in a previous study. This finding suggests that diazepam is unsuitable for this type of anaesthesia.
