Brief summary
When not using neuromuscular blocking agent, even at optimal dosage, target-controlled infusion (TCI) of propofol and remifentanil occasionally produce unsatisfactory intubating conditions. Therefore, the investigators evaluated that the effect of tracheal lidocaine on the intubating conditions for tracheal intubation during anesthesia induction of propofol and remifentanil TCI without neuromuscular blocking agent in day-case anesthesia.
Detailed description
Anesthesia was induced with propofol-remifentanil TCI with the effect-site concentration of 5μg/ml and 5ng/ml, respectively. After TCI, 3 ml of normal saline or 3 ml of 4% lidocaine was instilled to larynx and trachea, following intubation was performed.
Interventions
3 ml of 4% lidocaine was instilled to larynx and trachea
3 ml of normal saline was instilled to larynx and trachea before endotracheal intubation

| Overall acceptable conditions for tracheal intubation | baseline from 5 min of TCI was maintained | Four minutes after start of propofol-remifentanil TCI, 3 ml of normal saline or 3 ml of 4% lidocaine was instilled to larynx and trachea, and one minute later, intubation was performed in double-blinded fashion. |
