Study of Changes in the Serum Potassium Concentration after Thiopental with Succinylcholine in Childrens at a Tertiary Care Centre
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 10
Abstract
Succinylcholine is a depolarizing muscle relaxant which is most widely used during anaesthesia, because of its short duration of action, lasting for about 4-5 minutes The hazards of potassium imbalance following administration of muscle relaxant during general anaesthesia make it imparative to find out combination of the relaxant and the anaesthetic agent which would minimize the risk of hyperkalaemic and hypokalaemic syndrome. study is aimed to observe changes in the serum potassium concentration after Thiopental with succinylcholine in childrens. The serum potassium level after the administration of thiopental and succinylcholine shows the rise of serum potassium in pediatric age group
