ABSTRACT
The systolic blood pressure, pulse rate and respiratory rate were assessed in 112 children before and after receiving premedication consisting of trimeprazine (3 mg/kg) and droperidol (0.2 mg/kg) by mouth. A mild (10%) drop in blood pressure was shown, but no statistical difference was found in the other parameters measured. The premedication is highly efficacious, 70% of patients being asleep in the preanaesthetic room; 27% were calm and only 3% were distressed or crying.
