Thiopentone-propofol hypnotic synergism in patients.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The hypnotic effects of thiopentone, propofol and their combination were studied in 120 unpremedicated ASA group I patients. The end-point for induction of anaesthesia was taken as inability to open the eyes to command 60 s after the end of injection. The dose-response curves were determined by probit analysis. Isobolographic and algebraic (fractional) analyses were used to assess quantitatively the combined hypnotic effect of thiopentone and propofol and to define the type of interaction between these two drugs. The interaction between thiopentone and propofol was found to be synergistic.

Midazolam Co-induction with Thiopentone and Propofol : a Comparative Study
Most commonly we use thiopentone and propofol as I.V.induction agent for General anaesthesia. They have many characteristics similar to ideal induction agent but also have dose related side effects. To decrease these side effects we may use the small dose of drug before induction which act synergistically with thiopentone and propofol in central nervous system to produce induction and the durg ...
متن کاملMovements of the vocal cords on induction of anaesthesia with thiopentone or propofol.
Using a fibreoptic laryngoscope, we have recorded on video tape the movements of the vocal cords after induction of anaesthesia with either propofol or thiopentone. The angle formed by the vocal cords decreased after induction of anaesthesia in both groups. This reduction in angle was significantly greater in the thiopentone group. The vocal cords closed completely in four patients in the thiop...

Propofol (2,6-diisopropylphenol) 2.5 mg.kg-1 IV was compared with thiopentone 5 mg.kg-1 IV as an induction agent in anaesthesia for elective cardioversion. Thirty-five patients (ASA physical status II-III) with atrial fibrillation were included. Thirty patients were randomized to receive propofol or thiopentone. Five patients were treated twice during the study period and anaesthetized with bot...
متن کاملPropofol or thiopentone: effects on intraocular pressure associated with induction of anaesthesia and tracheal intubation (facilitated with suxamethonium).
Changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) were studied in patients given propofol 2.1 mg kg-1 (n = 30) or thiopentone 4.9 mg kg-1 (n = 30) followed by suxamethonium 1.0 mg kg-1 and tracheal intubation. Half the patients in each group received an additional smaller dose of the same induction agent (propofol 1.0 mg kg-1 or thiopentone 2.0 mg kg-1) immediately before intubation. Both agents produced s...
متن کاملPostanaesthetic shivering--a comparison of thiopentone and propofol.
One hundred and sixty patients undergoing minor surgical procedures were randomly allocated to receive either thiopentone or propofol for induction of anaesthesia. All patients were assessed in the recovery period for the development of postanaesthetic shivering. Twenty patients (25%) in the thiopentone group and 8 patients (10%) in the propofol group developed postanaesthetic shivering (p < 0....
