Comparison of intraoperative brain condition, hemodynamics and postoperative recovery between desflurane and sevoflurane in patients undergoing supratentorial craniotomy

Saudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2015
Background: Post operative recovery has been reported to be faster with desflurane than sevoflurane anesthesia in previous studies. The use of desflurane is often criticized in neurosurgery due to the concerns of cerebral vasodilation and increase in ICP

Different effects of sevoflurane, desflurane, and isoflurane on early and late left ventricular diastolic function in young healthy adults† [PDF]

, 2017
Background Knowledge on the effects of volatile anaesthetics on left ventricular (LV) diastolic function in humans in vivo is limited. We tested the hypothesis that sevoflurane, desflurane, and isoflurane do not impair LV diastolic function in young ...

Can modern infrared analyzers replace gas chromatography to measure anesthetic vapor concentrations? [PDF]

, 2008
Background Gas chromatography (GC) has often been considered the most accurate method to measure the concentration of inhaled anesthetic vapors. However, infrared (IR) gas analysis has become the clinically preferred monitoring technique because it ...

Efficacy of dexmedetomidine for prevention of emergence agitation in patients posted for nasal surgery under desflurane anaesthesia: A prospective double-blinded randomised controlled trial

Indian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2018
Background and Aims: Nasal surgery under desflurane anaesthesia is more prone to develop emergence agitation (EA). The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine for prevention of EA.

Desflurane reduces intraoperative remifentanil requirements more than sevoflurane: comparison using surgical pleth index‐guided analgesia

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 2018
Background: Sevoflurane and desflurane are widely used in balanced anaesthesia in combination with opioid analgesics. The opioid remifentanil is frequently chosen because of its extremely rapid pharmacokinetics.
