Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Children of ASA physical status I /II of either sex, in the age group of 1 month to 3 years, with known or suspected congenital or secondary glaucoma unable to co-operate for awake IOP measurement

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients with cardiac co-morbidities, known airway difficulties, contra indications to the anaesthetic drugs (e.g., malignant hyperthermia), neonates ( < 1 month)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Measure the effective concentration (EC 50) of sevoflurane causing "no movement" during IOP measurement in 50% of the study population.Timepoint: After 4 minutes of maintenance of the predetermined end tidal sevoflurane concentration

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Adverse effects like laryngospasm, bradycardia, breath holding, desaturation with SpO2 less than 92%Timepoint: at the time of attempting IOP measurement;Degree of variation in IOP measured at baseline (just after induction) and at predetermined sevoflurane concentrationTimepoint: baseline (just after induction) and at 4 minutes of maintenance of the predetermined sevoflurane concentration;Measure the effective concentration (EC 95) of sevoflurane causing "no movement" during IOP measurement in 95% of the study populationTimepoint: After 4 minutes of maintenance of the predetermined end tidal sevoflurane concentration
