Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is currently the most widely used supraglottic airway device with advantages of simple and fast placement, reduced anesthesia drug use, more stable hemodynamics, and less throat discomfort after anesthesia compared to endotracheal intubation. Some studies claimed the use of muscle relaxants or local anesthetics (sprays or lubricants containing local anesthetics) for the throat before LMA placement can reduce the dosage of induction agents and postoperative throat complications.
In modern society, more and more elderly people undergo elective surgery with the need of general anesthesia. However, they are the more vulnerable population with tendency of greater hemodynamic changes with more induction agent usage. Propofol is one of the most used induction agents which may lead to a drop in blood pressure. The objective of this study is to observe whether the dose of propofol and the changes in hemodynamics can be reduced by using muscle relaxants or laryngeal local anesthetics in elderly who receiving general anesthesia with LMA insertion.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10% lidocaine spray and cisatracurium group | Experimental | The subjects received laryngeal local anesthetics (10% lidocaine spray), intravenous cisatracurium 0.12 mg/kg, and propofol before laryngeal mask airway placement. The predetermined dosage of propofol for the first subject is 1 mg/kg. |
|
| 10% lidocaine spray and placebo of cisatracurium group | Experimental | The subjects received laryngeal local anesthetics (10% lidocaine spray), intravenous normal saline as a substitute for cisatracurium, and propofol before laryngeal mask airway placement. The predetermined dosage of propofol for the first subject is 1.25 mg/kg. |
|
| Placebo of lidocaine spray and cisatracurium group | Experimental | The subjects received normal saline spray as a substitute for laryngeal local anesthetics (10% lidocaine spray), intravenous cisatracurium 0.12 mg/kg, and propofol before laryngeal mask airway placement. The predetermined dosage of propofol for the first subject is 1 mg/kg. |
|
| Placebo group | Placebo Comparator | The subjects received normal saline spray as a substitute for laryngeal local anesthetics (10% lidocaine spray), intravenous normal saline as a substitute for cisatracurium, and propofol before laryngeal mask airway placement. The predetermined dosage of propofol for the first subject is 2 mg/kg. |

| Propofol requirement | The minimal propofol requirement dose was defined as the median effective dose (ED50) of movement or increased mean arterial pressure (MAP) to no movement or stable MAP. The ED50 is the average of the crossover midpoints found during conducting the Dixon's up-and-down method. | one minute after propofol infusion |

| Propofol | Drug | The dosage of intravenous propofol for the first subjects was predetermined for each arm, and the dosage for the subsequent subjects would be determined according to the response of the previous subjects using the Dixon's up-and-down method with a step size of 0.25 mg/kg. If the subjects had no movement and stable hemodynamic status during and after the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) placement, the predetermined dosage of propofol for the subsequent subject would be decreased by 0.25 mg/kg. On the other hand, if the subjects had obvious movement, failure to LMA placement, and significant hemodynamic changes, the predetermined dosage of propofol for the subsequent subject would be increased by 0.25 mg/kg. |
