Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 3

Abstract

Present study was conducted to study the use of Propofol as a total intravenous anaesthetic agent in short surgical day care procedures. A hospital based longitudinal study was conducted with total 50 patients in the department of Anaesthesiology, SSG Hospital, Vadodara. Fifty patients between ages of 15 to 65 years were enrolled for the study. All patients were gone through short surgical procedures with Propofol intravenous anesthetic agent. Propofol has a tremendous potential for use in ICU sedation, MAC sedation and sedation during procedures under regional anesthesia. Hence it became very popular for day care surgeries or outpatient anesthesia.
