Journal Title: IJSR-International Journal Of Scientific Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 10
Abstract
Aim :The aim of our study was to evaluate the quality of intubating condition of rocuronium versus succinylcholine during intubation. Methodology :All the patients were randomly divided into two groups of 25 each. Group I patients received rocuronium bromide 0.6 mg /kg and Group II patient received succinylcholine 1.5mg/kg. The intubation was attempted by an experienced anaesthesiologist blinded to the drug given at 90 seconds .At the same time Train of Four (TOF) was measured by neuromuscular stimulator and noted.The intubating condition was graded using cooper’s score. Results:The intubating conditions were graded as excellent in all the patients of both the group. There was no significant change in pulse rate and mean arterial pressure from the baseline value after the administration of muscle relaxants in either of the both group.Conclusion: Rocuronium is a safer alternative to succinylcholine for endotrateal intubation in conditions where use of succinylcholine is contraindicated or hazardous.
