Abstract
BACKGROUND: a prospective, randomized, double-blind study was designed to evaluate the effects of priming technique with rocuronium bromide for intubation in adult patients undergoing surgical procedures.METHODS: sixty adult patients of 20-60 years of age with asa-1 physical status posted for surgical procedures were divided in to two groups. group c received normal saline (2ml) as priming dose and group p received 0.06mg/kg rocuronium (2 ml) as priming dose and after 3 minutes intubating dose group c received 6 mg /kg (5 ml) group p received the 5.4 mg /kg (5 ml) as intubating dose .muscle relaxation was assessed with nerve stimulator for every 10 seconds and assessed visually for loss of adduction of thumb and disappearance of t1 of train of four (TOF) stimuli. By this we can note the onset time of intubation (Ti) and intubating conditions were assessed buy cooper et al scoring system. Any adverse effects were also noted.RESULTS: The mean onset of intubation time (Ti) in the group P was 52.33±6.79 sec, in the group C was 95.67±11.04 sec ,P value is 0.00 it is highly significant. Minimum Ti is 80 sec. and maximum Ti is 120 sec. intubation scores as per “cooper et al scoring”were 8 or 9 in both the groups. There were no incidences of weakness, aspiration, bradycardia, ptosis, hypotension, in either of the groups during study observation.CONCLUSION: administration of Priming dose of rocuronium before the intubating dose causes the onset of neuromuscular block is rapid and onset time of intubation is became comparable to that of suxamethonium with excellent intubating conditions and without adverse effects.
