Although tonsillectomy is one of the most commonly performed surgeries, a review of literature reveals no articles dealing with the study of intraoperative blood loss in tonsillectomy and adenotonsillectomy according to the use of nondepolarizing muscle relaxants. The primary aim of our trial will be to compare blood loss in the operating theatre and postoperatively in two groups of children having adenotonsillectomy. The trial numbers will be randomised in blocks.
