ABSTRACT

Blood sugar and potassium levels were mesured before and after intravenous injection of Etomidate to serve as an inducing agent in general anesthesea.The results showed that the blood potassinm in 31patients, the blood sugar in 29 patients were normal and had no statistical significance of difference.Hence the authors consider that Etomidate has neither influence on blood sugar nor on blood potassium.Etomidate is a safe, ideal intravenous anesthetic worthwhile to be recommended.
