Abstract

Objective: Inj thiopental is known to result in hypotension during induction, and the effect is more pronounced in hypertensive patients. This study aimed to compare the effect of two different anesthesia induction regimens with pentothal in managing the hemodynamic response to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation in known hypertensive patients.
