Abstract
The cardiovascular response to laryngoscopy and intubation was investigated in lightly anaesthetised patients admitted to hospital for elective intracranial surgery. One group of patients was given fentanyl 5 microgram/kg body weight before induction with thiopentone and suxamethonium. The other group served as controls. Fentanyl treatment caused a significant attenuation of the blood pressure and pulse response to laryngoscopy and intubation. Different techniques for induction of anaesthesia are discussed in relation to the demands of neuroanaesthesia.Keywords
