Abstract Background During rapid sequence induction, either rocuronium 1.0 mg kg−1 or suxamethonium 1.0 mg kg−1 can be administered to facilitate endotracheal intubation. We hypothezised that rocuronium provided a larger proportion of excellent intubating conditions compared to suxamethonium in elderly patients.
