Propofol/Fentanyl/Rocuronium or Sevoflurane Inhalational Induction for Intubation?

ABSTRACT: Introduction Anesthesia induction and airway instrumentation are critical parts of anesthesia administration. Intravenous induction is time convenient but necessitates immediate commencement of ventilation. Inhalational sevoflurane induction takes longer but preserves spontaneous respiration. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the intubation quality features achieved by sevoflurane as the sole induction agent compared with the standard intravenous induction, involving the use of muscle relaxants. Methods Sixty patients were randomly allocated into two groups: the Inhalational Vital Capacity Induction With Sevoflurane (IVCIS) group (n = 30) in which patients were intubated after sevoflurane inhalational anesthesia with the vital capacity technique and the Standard Intravenous Indu
