Summary

Several methods have been demonstrated to improve intubating conditions during sevoflurane induction in children. These include opioids, propofol, and addition of neuromuscular blocking agents in pediatric patients. But the study about the comparison of these agents has been uncommon. Frenectomy is common procedure to treat ankyloglossia. It is a short procedure performed under general anesthesia. The investigators aimed to compare intubating conditions among children with propofol, alfentanil or rocuronium after sevoflurane induction.

Conditions

• Ankyloglossia

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DRUG	administration of propofol	intravenous administration of propofol 2 mg/kg before intubation
DRUG	administration of alfentanil	intravenous administration of alfentanil 14 μg/kg before intubation
DRUG	administration of rocuronium	Intravenous administration of rocuronium 0.3 mg/kg before intubation
