New IACSD standard on clinical use and training

Remimazolam for intravenous conscious sedation for dental procedures

10 January 2023

The Intercollegiate Advisory Committee for Sedation in Dentistry (IACSD) published 'Standards for Conscious Sedation in the Provision of Dental Care' in April 2015, with an update in March 2020.

The current IACSD Standards document pre-dates remimazolam authorisation. IACSD has therefore released interim guidance on the clinical use of remimazolam, including training requirements.

To ensure patient safety, dentists and doctors using remimazolam for dental conscious sedation will be expected to comply with this guidance. See link below.
