The target concentration of remifentanil to suppress the hemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation during inhalational induction with desflurane [PDF]
BackgroundAnesthesia induction with desflurane is troublesome because of the frequent sympathetic hyperactivity during desflurane administration. We thought that a low concentration of desflurane combined with a target-controlled infusion (TCI) of ...

In Defense of Desflurane: Is There a Specific Role for Desflurane in Neuroanesthesia?
It is challenging to counter the widespread criticism of desflurane as the volatile anesthetic agent with the most significant greenhouse gas effect, one which is likely to exacerbate global warming.

Bispectral index and their relation with consciousness of the patients who receive desflurane or sevoflurane anesthesia during wake-up test for spinal surgery for correction [PDF]
BackgroundWake-up tests may be necessary during surgery for kypho-scoliosis to ensure that spinal function remains intact. It is difficult to predict the time when patients can respond to a verbal command. We evaluated the effectiveness of the bispectral

Cerebrovascular reactivity to hypercapnia during sevoflurane or desflurane anesthesia in rats [PDF]
Background Hypercapnia causes dilation of cerebral vessels and increases cerebral blood flow, resulting in increased intracranial pressure. Sevoflurane is reported to preserve cerebrovascular carbon dioxide reactivity.

Propofol prevents further prolongation of QT interval during liver transplantation
Here, we aimed to compare the effects of two anesthetic methods (desflurane inhalation anesthesia vs. propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA)] on corrected QT interval (QTc) values during living donor liver transplantation.

Time course of end-tidal desflurane concentration during delivery and elimination according to the type and location of filters in a semi-closed circuit system [PDF]
BackgroundThe aim of this study was to determine whether the end-tidal concentration of desflurane would be affected by a breathing circuit system filter attached at two different positions in anesthetic breathing circuit systems.MethodsAn artificial ...
