Summary
Background: Large doses of propofol needed for induction and laryngeal mask (LM) insertion in
children may be associated with hemodynamic sides effects. Co-induction with low doses of
ketamine 0.5 mg/ kg has the advantage of reducing dose and therefore maintaining hemodynamic
stability.
Aim: To examine the effect of co-induction on LM insertion, hemodynamics and recovery in
children
