Brief Summary  

Although anxiolytic-sedative agents are used preoperatively since the advent of anesthesia, many aspects of this treatment, including the intended effects among which anxiolysis, and optimal agents, remain unclear. High levels of preoperative fear and anxiety correlate with various unfavorable outcomes ,including increase in postoperative analgesia requirements, prolonged post anesthesia care unit or hospital stay, it can lead to essential procedures being postponed, delay postoperative recovery, and delayed negative psychological effects.

Anxiolytic medication is a common way to address preoperative anxiety. A common way to help patients cope with preoperative anxiety is to administer anxiolytic medication, most commonly benzodiazepines.
