In Defense of Desflurane: Is There a Specific Role for Desflurane in Neuroanesthesia?

open access: yesJournal of Neuroanaesthesiology and Critical Care
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.

The target concentration of remifentanil to suppress the hemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation during inhalational induction with desflurane [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2011
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 ...

Cerebrovascular reactivity to hypercapnia during sevoflurane or desflurane anesthesia in rats [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2019
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

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
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.

The impact of desflurane and sevoflurane on the intraoperative and early postoperative period in liver transplantation

open access: yesТрансплантология (Москва), 2021
Background. A pressing issue is the choice of an anesthetic agent for liver transplantation. The mechanism of the organprotective properties of desflurane and sevoflurane is not fully understood.

No Difference Among Inhaled Anesthetics on the Growth and Metastasis of Murine 4T1 Breast Cancers in a Mouse Model of Spontaneous Metastasis

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Objective: This study evaluates the effect of the commonly used inhaled anesthetics isoflurane, sevoflurane, and desflurane on the viability and migration of murine 4T1 breast cancer cells, the growth, and lung metastasis in a syngenetic model of ...

Pharmacokinetics of desflurane elimination from respiratory gas and blood during the 20 minutes after cardiac surgery

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2013
Desflurane, with a low blood–gas partition coefficient, is an ideal anesthetic to achieve rapid offset and recovery from general anesthesia. Investigation of desflurane elimination from blood and respiratory gas should provide useful information with ...

Comparison between cerebral state index and bispectral index during desflurane anesthesia [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2018
Background Cerebral state index (CSI) is an anesthesia depth monitor alternative to bispectral index (BIS). Published comparative studies have used propofol or sevoflurane. However, studies using desflurane have not been reported yet.
