Fig 2 Individual bispectral index values: before induction; 1 min before esmolol, 1, 3 and 5 mins (pre-laryngoscopy) after the start of esmolol infusion; and 1, 2 and 5 min after orotracheal intubation (OTI).

Fig 3 Maximum changes of heart rate (ΔHR), mean arterial pressure (ΔMAP), and bispectral index (ΔBIS) after orotracheal intubation expressed as percentage of values recorded before laryngoscopy in the control and esmolol groups. Each symbol represents an individual patient. The horizontal bars denote mean values for each variable. *P<0.05; **P<0.01 vs control group.
