    Study Notes

    Induction Agents

    • Induction agents are used to achieve rapid anesthesia.
    • Options include:
      • Etomidate: Administer at 0.3 mg/kg intravenously, notable for cardiovascular stability.
      • Ketamine: Administer at 1-2 mg/kg intravenously, provides analgesia and dissociative anesthesia.
      • Propofol: Administer at 1-2 mg/kg intravenously, known for quick onset and recovery.

    Neuromuscular Blocking Agents

    • Neuromuscular blocking agents facilitate muscle relaxation during procedures.
    • Options include:
      • Succinylcholine: Administer at 1-2 mg/kg intravenously, acts rapidly but with a short duration.
      • Rocuronium: Administer at 0.6-1.5 mg/kg intravenously, with a recommended minimum dose of ≥1 mg/kg of ideal body weight (IBW). Preferred for longer procedures due to its intermediate duration of action.
