Brief Summary   cis-atracurium is non-depolarising neuromuscular blocking agents with advantages like being metabolised by Hoffmann elimination and  as a most potent molecule it produces less laudanosine, dose not release histamine in clinical dose ranges .And it is noticed that even  after large doses there is no cardiovascular changes . Inspite of these advantages it is of limited use because of slow onset and unsatisfactory intubating condition compared with equipotent doses of other neuromuscular blocking agents like Rocuronium. But we could not use rocuronium in hepatic and renal compromised patients because it mostly metabolised in liver . In this study we will investigate wheather Cis-atracurium with increasing doses can be near ideal  neuromuscular blocking agents in comparison to rocuronium in producing acceptable intubating condition with relatively safe and short  duration  of muscle paralysis. Assuming p value <0.05 to be significant and considering effect to be two sided, we get Z =1.96; assuming power of the study to be 90% we get Z1- b  = 1.28 ; considering an effect size of 95 to be statistically significant we get n =25 in each group. Hence minimum 25 patients will be taken in each group.  
After obtaining approval fro institutional ethical committe & informed written consent will be taken from 25 patients of each group under going general anaesthesia and endotracheal intubation for Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy surgery .All the patients will be put on IV canula & standard monitors (Skanray) including NIBP,ECG,Pulse Oxymetry . Before induction of anaesthesia TOF Scan NMT Monitor probe will be placed on the thumb & monitor will be swiched on. All the patients will receive premedication inj. Fentanyl 2mcg/kg just before induction of anaesthesia. After preoxygenation with 100% oxygen, patient  will be induced with 2mg/kg IV Propofol over 30 sec.After loss of consiousness to facilitate tracheal intubation,neuromuscular blocking agents will be infused either with a single bolus dose of Cisatracurium or Rocuronium . The calculated amount of muscle relaxant will be injected over 5 sec into a rapid infusion of normal saline .Following maximal depression of T1  (onset time) , direct laryngoscopy will be initiated followed by tracheal intubation .The ulner nerve will be stimulated at the wrist with a square wave stimulus set at a current of  50 mA and duration of 0.2 ms each will be delivered in a  train-of-four (TOF) sequence,repeated every 12 sec using TOF Scan NMT Monitor. After intubation ,anaesthesia will be maintained by 65% nitrous oxide and 3.0 volume % Desflurane (inspired) .
