ABSTRACT
Background: Airway management continues to remain one ofthe most challenging tasks for the anaesthesia and critical careproviders. The stress response to laryngoscopy andendotracheal intubation is associated with morbidity insusceptible individuals. Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) hasrevolutionized the airway management during anaesthesia.Method: 80 patients were randomly selected and divided intotwo groups. Group 1-ILMA group and Group 2 –Ambu aura-Igroup.Group 1- ILma was used as a conduit for intubation andhemodynamic changes were recorded.Group 2-Ambu Aura –I was used as a conduit for intubationand hemodynamic changes were recorded.Results and Conclusion: Hemodynamic changes in both thegroups were not significant.
ABSTRACT
Background: Although disturbing emergence reactions are associated with its use, ketamine has several clinically useful properties, including analgesia and less cardiorespiratory depressant effects than other anaesthetic agents, in fact it causes some stimulation of the cardiovascular system. Methods: Two group were included in this study i.e. Group A & Group B. Both group had 18 cases. This study conducted in Department of Anaesthesiology & Critical Care, Mahatma Gandhi Medical College & Hospital. Results: Demographic variables were compared between both groups A and B. Group A is A significant faster onset of sensory block was found in ketamine group in comparison to fentanyl group. (p-value<0.001). While the time to achieve the highest level of sensory block was found to be almost similar in both the groups. Conclusion: Addition of ketamine or fentanyl to spinal bupivacaine were equally effective in pain control after abdominal hysterectomy.
