Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical TrialPropofol-sodium thiopental admixture reduces pain on injection.
Propofol injection associated with a high incidence of pain is well known. Propofol and sodium thiopental mixture has recently been reported to be used for cost saving and able to reduce pain on injection. ⋯ Sodium thiopental, when added to propofol, can significantly reduce propofol injection pain. This attenuation effect was noted even with as low as 10 volume % of sodium thiopental.

Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical TrialEffect of oral clonidine premedication on perioperative hemodynamic response and postoperative analgesic requirement for patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
To investigate the clinical efficacy of oral clonidine premedication in anesthesia and analgesia in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). ⋯ Oral clonidine premedication helped to provide perioperative hemodynamic stability, spared the use of isoflurane and reduced the requirement of postoperative analgesia so as to smoother the way to recovery in patients undergoing LC.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical TrialThe effects of tramadol versus fentanyl in attenuating hemodynamic response following tracheal intubation.
Tramadol is a novel central acting analgesic. It has been used as a complement to general anesthesia and an effective agent for postoperative analgesia. However, the influence of tramadol on the hemodynamic response following laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation is less known. ⋯ When administered right before thiopental induction, 3 mg/kg tramadol did not display a better attenuation against the increase of hemodynamic profiles than did 3 micrograms/kg fentanyl following tracheal intubation.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical TrialComparison of rocuronium and vecuronium pretreatment for prevention of fasciculations, myalgia and biochemical changes following succinylcholine administration.
The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of rocuronium pretreatment on the succinylcholine-induced fasciculations, myalgia and biochemical changes, and to compare it with vecuronium pretreatment. ⋯ Rocuronium pretreatment was more effective in reducing fasciculations than was vecuronium pretreatment, but both were equally effective in preventing myalgia on postoperative day 1. This difference may reflect the differential activities of rocuronium and vecuronium at the neuromuscular junction. The increase of creatine kinase was not attenuated by any regimen.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical TrialSpinal anesthesia for cesarean section: isobaric versus hyperbaric solution.
The present study was undertaken to compare the outcomes of hyperbaric versus isobaric spinal anesthesia in Cesarean delivery. ⋯ Our results indicated that numerous variables must be taken into consideration in predicting the outcome of a spinal anesthesia. Alternation in the technique and individual patient factor may individually or collectively produce different results.
