Measure
2.0 mg/kg Propofol
Propofol + Remifentanil: Patients in this arm of the study will receive 2.0 mg/kg propofol + 1.5 ug/kg remifentanil. An anesthesiologist will inject propofol mixed with lidocaine, followed immediately by remifentanil, diluted with 0.9% saline to a volume of 3 ml and administered as a bolus.
4.0 mg/kg Propofol
Propofol + Remifentanil: Patients in this arm of the study will receive 4.0 mg/kg propofol + 0.5 ug/kg remifentanil. An anesthesiologist will inject propofol mixed with lidocaine, followed immediately by remifentanil, diluted with 0.9% saline to a volume of 3 ml and administered as a bolus.
