Protocol summary

Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of remifentanil on succinylcholine-induced biochemical changes and postoperative myalgia. Among patients who are scheduled for elective minor surgeries of lower abdomen, and according to the inclusion criteria, 60 patients will be selected, and randomly divided into two groups. Except the study drugs, the dose and type of main anesthetics are the same for all patients and including: fentanyl 1mcg/kg, propofol 2mg/kg and succynilcholine 1.5mg/kg. Pre-treatment for study group is remifentanil 1mcg/kg and for control group is 3ml of saline normal. Mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate will be measured and recorded three times (before induction of anesthesia, after induction of anesthesia, and after intubation of patient). After injection of succynilcholine the intensity and duration of muscle fasciculation will be measured and recorded for both of groups. Three blood samples will be obtained from all patients in three different times (before induction of anesthesia, after intubation of patient and 24hour after operation). First sample for serum potassium level (K) and Creatine PhosphoKinase(CPK), second for serum potassium and the thirds for CPK. A third party who is not aware of patients grouping will evaluate post operative myalgia, using a four-point Scale, at 5 different times. Results will be compared between groups.
