Notizen:
One hundred children who presented for minor general surgical procedures were randomly assigned to receive one of two oral premedications. Those in group A (n = 50) were given 3 mg/kg of trimeprazine and those in group B (n = 50) a mixture of trimeprazine 1.0 mg/kg, droperidol 0.15 mg/kg and methadone 0.08 mg/kg. Patients in group B were more likely to be asleep on arrival in the anaesthetic room (p 〈 0.02) and were less likely to be distressed at induction of anaesthesia (p 〈 0.02). Thiopentone requirements were less in group B (p 〈 0.001). The incidence of side effects was similar in the two groups. It is concluded that the mixture produces more satisfactory sedation than trimeprazine.
