Summary

This prospective randomized controlled study will be conducted to evaluate the effects of rubbing and distraction on the incidence and severity of propofol injection pain and compare them with the standard intravenous lidocaine method.

Conditions

  • Propofol Injection
  • Pain
  • Rubbing
  • Distraction

Interventions

OTHER

Rubbing Distraction

gently touching on proximal part of the IV injection site with the palm of the hand extending to the elbow. This will be started 5 seconds before propofol injection (not mixed with any drug) and continued until loss of consciousness. Also, a mobile video with duration of 10 seconds will be used for distraction and will be started 5 seconds before propofol injection so as to be ended at the time of first pain assessment.

DRUG

Lidocaine (drug)

lidocaine will be used by mixing it with the propofol before intravenous injection

OTHER

Saline

intravenous propofol will be given without mixing with any drug (except for 2 ml saline to ensure blindness of the outcome assessor).
