Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Reduction in rocuronium induced withdrawal movement. The two investigators were educated beforehand to grade the patient response according to the scale proposed by Shevchenko and colleagues 12: 1 = no movement, 2 = movement at the wrist only, 3 = movement/withdrawal involving the arm only (elbow/shoulder), 4 = generalized response, withdrawal or movement in more than one extremity.[Thirty seconds after administering the study drug, anesthesia was induced with 2.5% thiopental sodium 5 mg/kg. After the loss of consciousness, rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg was injected, and immediate withdrawal movements were recorded.]
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
attenuation of hemodynamic profile (Mean arterial pressure, MAP. Heart rate, HR) during tracheal intubation[Two minutes after rocuronium injection, the tracheal intubation was performed and the hemodynamic changes were observed. The mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) were measured upon arrival at the operating room, 1 min before and after tracheal intubation. The MAPs were measured by noninvasive blood pressure manometer and HRs were measured by using electrocardiograms.]
