Mechanism of action
Midazolam acts as a GABA-A receptor agonist to produce sedation and anxiolysis. Fentanyl is a mu-opioid receptor agonist that provides analgesia and enhances sedation. Rocuronium is a non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent that competitively antagonizes acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction to produce skeletal muscle paralysis for intubation and mechanical ventilation.
