Abstract
Introduction: Nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents are alternative but are slower in onset and have a prolonged neuromuscular blockade [3] and also an inability to reverse the paralysis quickly if airway management via mask or tracheal intubation is not possible. Methodology: The study group consisted of 80 patients of both sexes, between the age of l10years and belonging to ASA Physical status 1 and 2 who were scheduled for cleft lip/cleft palate/cleft alveolus surgery under general anaesthesia. Results: Regarding position of vocal cords, they were open in 50% of children, moving in 35% and closing in 15% of children in group A. In group B, vocal cords were open in 72.5% moving in 20%, closing in 5% and closed in 2.5% of children. Conclusion: A combination of sevofluranehad more acceptable intubating conditions compared to combination of propofol.
