Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedSigns and Symptoms: Pain
InterventionThe effects of the three formulations of this anaesthetic agent will be studied as the patient goes to sleep in the usual way for their operation. We will randomly allocate subjects into three groups prior to receiving the induction agent and injection pain will be evaluated by subjective and objective scoring of pain as they go to sleep. Intravenous canulation will be via a vein on the dorsum of the hand. After a small dose of the drug, they will be asked by the anaesthetist(s) about any soreness in their arm and to rate this as none, mild, moderate or severe. The anaesthetic and operation will proceed in the usual way after this.
Intervention typeDrug
