Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Hemodynamic changes like systolic & diastolic blood
pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, pulse oximetry, endtidal-
carbon dioxide will be recorded before induction, at the end of
induction & 5 minutes after induction.
Any Episodes of apnea will be noted,apnea is defined as
observation of a cessation of breathing (10 or more
seconds) by the patient,which is confirmed using
capnography
Total dose of propofol required for induction recorded (mg/kg)
Injection pain will be assessed at the start of propofol
administration using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS 0–10).

Response - NO
Brief Summary  
  • Limited data exist comparing 1% vs 0.5% propofol for induction characteristics & haemodynamic responses during laparoscopic procedures 
  •  Many studies are underpowered for induction time, haemodynamic stability, recovery time, and adverse events, focusing mainly on injection pain. • Furthermore,there is little information on use of titrated doses of propofol for induction characteristics 
  • Methodological heterogeneity exists regarding pain on injection of propofol—such as differences in injection site, cannula size, premedication, and infusion rate—confounds interpretation, making it unclear whether observed benefits are due to dilution itself or to altered administration technique
  • Hence, a well-designed randomized controlled study directly comparing 1% vs 0.5% propofol in laparoscopic tubal ligation is warranted to provide robust evidence for clinical practice.
  • Study Area:
  • The study will be conducted in the operation theatre complex, Department of Anaesthesiology & Critical care at Dr. Baba Saheb Ambedkar Medical college and Hospital, Sector-6, Rohini, Delhi.

  • Primary Objective 
  •  To compare the induction time of 1% versus 0.5% propofol during induction of anaesthesia in laparoscopic tubal ligation. 
  • Secondary Objectives 
  •  To compare hemodynamic parameters( changes in HR, SBP, DBP, and MAP before induction,at the end of induction & 5 minutes after induction) and incidence of apnea 
  • To compare the total propofol dose required for induction 
  • To compare pain on injection among the two groups using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS 010) measured at the time of infusion.
