Abstract
Access of airway can pose a problem with cleft palate. Patient was hyperthyroid also on medications posted for Abdominal hysterectomy. Her T4 was high, anxious and with tachycardia. Planned for General anaesthesia with Endotracheal intubation. Premedicated with Inj Glycopyrrolate, Inj Midazolam, Inj Fentanyl; induced with Inj Propofol and Intubated with Inj Suxamethonium with Video Laryngoscope. Intraoperative tachycardia was treated with Ing Lignocaine and Extubated uneventfully after reversing neuromuscular blockade. Proper planning for airway management and treating hyperthyroidism for our patient with cleft palate and hyperthyroidism turned out with a successful anaesthesia management.
