Use of propanidid and lignocaine to modify the increase in serum potassium concentration following injection of suxamethonium.

A technique of general anaesthesia involving the use of propanidid, nitrous oxide, oxygen and halothane followed by a slow injection of suxamethonium and lignocaine is described. The technique decreased the increase in serum potassium concentration that follows the injection of suxamethonium and, it is suggested, possesses advantages over the existing practice of the injection of non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking drugs before suxamethonium in an attempt to reduce the frequency of serious cardiac arrhythmia.

Eye hue and the oculocardiac reflex.

During operations for squint nodal rhythm and other more serious arrhythmias such as heart block and multifocal ventricular extrasystoles, as well as the oculocardiac reflex, are shown to occur more frequently in patients with brown or hazel eyes than in patients with blue or grey eyes.

Oral premedication: diazepam, metoclopramide and a drink.

A technique of premiedication using oral diazepam and metoclopramide with a drink is described and shown to provide better sedation and less vomiting than pethidine and atropine given intramuscularly without a drink to a group of similar patients.
