Eltanolone for induction of anaesthesia in the surgical patient. A comparison of dose requirements in young and elderly patients.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Myoclonic movements are a common problem during the induction of general anesthesia with etomidate. We investigated the influence of pretreatment with the opioid sufentanil on the incidence of etomidate-induced myoclonus. METHODS:Forty female patients (ASA physical status I-III) were randomly assigned to re...
