Authors

Abstract

ABSTRACT:
In this study comparison of induction characteristics of Thiopentone and Propanidid in two
groups of patients (25 each) scheduled for bronchoscopy was undertaken. The results show that
Propanidid maintains better cardio-respiratory stability. There is earlier recovery and shorter
anaesthetic period. Propanidid was therefore, found to be safer and more useful inducing agent than
Thiopentone in bronchoscopy, more so in outdoor cases.
