Brief Summary  

        This study is a randomized, prospective, double blind trial performed to assess the incidence and intensity of propofol injection pain between two formulations.

            Two hundred ASA physical status I & II patients, posted for various elective surgeries under general anaesthesia were studied.The patients were divided into two groups of hundred each.Group L received 3 cc of LCT propofol and Group M  received 3ccof LCT/MCT propofol . Patients were observed and questioned after 30sec of injection and pain was scored on a 4 point scale. Pain recall was done on the same 4 point scale 30 mins postoperatively.

                      Both the incidence and intensity of pain was greater in group L compared with group M (p=0.0002). The mean pain score was also higher in group L (2.71) when compared with group M (1.08).

                        Propofol MCT/LCT reduces both intensity and incidence of pain on injection.
