Abstract

Blood loss during suction termination of pregnancy was estimated in patients anaesthetised with intravenous ketamine (n = 25) and compared with those anaesthetised with intravenous methohexitone (n = 25). Both groups received midazolam 0.15 mg/kg intravenously 3 min prior to induction of anaesthesia. No statistically significant difference was found in blood loss between the two groups (P = 0.66). There was no incidence of dreaming or psychomotor disturbances with ketamine in our study.
