Fentanyl and Propofol for Tracheal Intubation During Sevoflurane Induction Without Muscle Relaxants in Children

Summary

Several methods have been proposed to improve intubating conditions and minimize sevoflurane induction time during sevoflurane induction in children. These include clonidine premedication, \[5\] addition of nitrous oxide, \[6\] opioids, \[7,8\] or propofol \[9\]. Four Studies evaluated sevoflurane alone for intubation (9-12).Aim of this study: is to evaluate the effects of two different dose of propofol preceded by a fixed dose of fentanyl during sevoflurane induction on quality of tracheal intubation in children undergoing elective surgery.
