Abstract

Tracheal intubation is one of the common procedures performed during general anaesthesia and is a life saving intervention that is performed in the emergency departments. In the present study haemodynamical parameters such as heart rate, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure are measured and the variation in these parameters are compared during the use of succinylcholine and rocuronium at O, 1 min, 5 min, 10 min of laryngoscopy under intubating conditions. The study reveals that rocuronium produced a slight transient increase in heart rate and blood pressure that may due to the intubation response which returned to normal within 5 minutes.
