  • Title: Flunitrazepam compared with althesin as an induction agent in balanced anaesthesia.
    Author: Mattila MA, Martikainen P, Säilä K.
    Journal: Br J Anaesth; 1977 Oct; 49(10):1041-6. PubMed ID: 21677.
    Abstract:
    The effects of flunitrazepam and Althesin as anaesthetic induction agents were studied in a double-blind trial in 97 patients undergoing abdominal or gynaecological surgery. There was no difference between the two preparations in respect of the quality of induction. A marked difference in the quality of maintenance of anaesthesia were seen, in favour of flunitrazepam. Recovery was more rapid from Althesin anaesthesia. A low incidence of nausea was observed in both groups.
