Induction dose-response of propofol in unpremedicated children.

abstract：:Atropine and glycopyrronium are frequently used for premedication to reduce oral and respiratory secretions and prevent bradycardia. Glycopyrronium is said to have similar antisialagogue effects, but is less likely to cause significant tachycardia than atropine. Different antimuscarinic receptor selectivity patterns c...
