The control of intra-ocular pressure during the induction of anaesthesia for emergency eye surgery. A high-dose vecuronium technique. Anaesthesia, 1987, Volume: 42, Issue:9 A technique of rapid sequence induction of anaesthesia for use in patients with penetrating eye injuries is described. This utilises a three maximal breaths method of pre-oxygenation, the intravenous injection of thiopentone and high dose vecuronium (0.2 mg/kg). Using the loss of eyelash reflex as the starting point for timing, all patients were intubated after 60 seconds without coughing and bucking. No postintubation increases in intra-ocular pressure were seen in 70% of patients and in no patient did the increase in intra-ocular pressure exceed 5 mmHg. After 3 minutes of apnoea, the minimum haemoglobin oxygen saturation was 94% with a mean value of 97.6%.
