Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Midazolam is frequently used as an anaesthesiological premedication before surgery in order to reduce patients resistance. Does midazolam also improve the quality of postoperative recovery?;Secondary Objective: Is there a rebound effect? This is described and found in previous studies. Patients who get a benzodiazepine are more vulnerable and show more resistance than patients who don't get a benzodiapine;Primary end point(s): quality of recovery, aggression, anxiety, fatigue, depression;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: preoperative, 1st day postoperative, third day postoperative, 7th day postoperative

Secondary
