Summary

This study uses brain scans (fMRI) to understand how the sedative remimazolam affects memory, pain perception, and brain activity. About 60 healthy adults will receive the drug and then perform memory tasks while experiencing mild pain. The goal is to learn more about how the drug works in the brain, not to treat any condition.
