Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
All patients will be pre-oxygenated for 3 minutes with 100% oxygen. Patients will be induced either with Inj. Etomidate (group E) or Inj. Propofol (group P). Appropriate size endotracheal tube will be inserted after giving Inj. Succinylcholine 1-1.5mg/kg. Maitenance will be done with Oxygen- Nitrous Oxide Isoflurane Vacuronium and controlled ventilation. Residual Neuromuscular block will be reversed with Neostigmine and Glycopyrolate.Timepoint: All patients will be monitored for vitals.These will be recorded at as baseline on arrival in O.T., at the time of induction,1 min post-induction,3 min post- induction,after 1 min of laryngoscopy,3 min post - intubation,Thereafter at 5-minute intervals for first 20 minutes, then every 15 minutes intra-operatively until the end of surgery,Vital signs will be recorded every 20 minutesin the Post Anaesthesia Care recovery room.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
After completion of surgical procedure, reversal of residual neuromuscular blockage will be achieved with Inj. Neostigmine (40μg/kg) and Inj. Glycopyrrolate (6μg/kg) and patients will be extubated.Timepoint: Patients will be observed for 2 hours in recovery room for any post operative signs and symptoms like nausea, vomiting, hypotension, bradycardia, respiratory depression, agitation and arrhythmias etc. The treatment if required will be given.
