Figure 8.; Representative context-sensitive half-times. The following graph compares the time required for serum concentrations to decline by 50% upon discontinuation of varied durations of continuous infusions. With the exception of remifentanil, the context-sensitive half-times increase following greater durations of infusion. Continuous infusions of diazepam and vfentanyl result in an unacceptable time for recovery. Data are adapted from Hughes et al12 and Egan et al.13

In my senior year, I had the additional opportunity of being able to use this drug with both of these instructors for some of my clinic patients and was able to see firsthand what a marvelous improvement it was over the standard intravenous sedatives that I had used the previous year. Diazepam was a revolutionary advancement in intravenous sedation. It was not just a pharmacological clone of the other sedatives, but represented a whole new class of drug with some major advantages
