    AbstractWe have compared two groups (n = 22) of unpremedicated patients to determine if the pain caused by injection of propofol could be modified by alfentanil. In group I, alfentanil 1 mg was given as a bolus i.v. injection 15 s before administration of propofol i.v., while group II received saline. Propofol was given in 20-mg increments every 4 s. All injections were given through the same i.v. cannula on the dorsum of one hand. We found that alfentanil pretreatment reduced pain on injection of propofol (P = 0.001).
