Abstract
ntravenous injection of propofol causes pain at the site of injection, the incidence varying from less than 10 % in the antecubital fossa to 90 % on
the back of the hand. Pain is often reported as severe or even intolerable.108 patients divided into 2 groups , Group D received
Inj.Dexmedetomidine 0.5mcg/kg iv and Group K received Inj.Ketamine 0.5mg/kg IV in 10 ml Normal saline as premedication.Immediately after
infusion, inj. Propofol 2.5mg/kg iv injected over 25 seconds.Patients will be assessed for pain every 5 seconds till patient become unconscious by
Propofol.We concluded that intravenous infusion of Ketamine 0.5 mg /kg before Propofol injection more effective in alleviating the incidence of
Propofol Injection Pain(PIP) and severity (mild pain only) when compared to Dexmedetomidine 0.5 µg/kg without any statistically signicant side
effects
