A new anesthetic method (fentanyl‐midazolam‐flumazenil) was compared with a previously administered anesthetic regimen (pethidine‐diazepam‐ketamine) in two groups of 25 women, each of whom underwent termination of pregnancy. No significant difference was found between the two groups in quality of anesthesia. Recovery was assessed by means of the Aldrete score and a visual analog scale. The recovery time was significantly shorter in patients who received the fentanyl‐midazolam‐flumazenil.
