Greenhouse gas reduction in anaesthesia practice: a departmental environmental strategy

BMJ Open Quality, 2022
Sustainability interventions were implemented at the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital (RBWH) following identification of inhaled anaesthetic gases as a target for reducing medical carbon emissions. This quality improvement study assessed and evaluated

Brain relaxation using desflurane anesthesia and total intravenous anesthesia in patients undergoing craniotomy for supratentorial tumors: a randomized controlled study

BMC Anesthesiology, 2023
Background Satisfactory brain relaxation is essential in neurosurgery. Desflurane anesthesia and propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) have different effects on cerebral hemodynamics, potentially contributing to discrepant brain relaxation ...

Can thıamıne pyrophosphate prevent desflurane ınduced hepatotoxıcıty ın rats? [PDF]

Acta Cirúrgica Brasileira, 2016
PURPOSE : To investigate the effects of thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) against desflurane induced hepatotoxicity. METHODS : Thirty experimental animals were divided into groups as healthy (HG), desflurane control (DCG) , TPP and desflurane group (TDG). 20

A Comparison of Emergence Behavior and Cost Effectiveness in Tonsillectomy Patients Undergoing General Anesthesia with Desflurane versus Sevoflurane

Archives of Anesthesia and Critical Care, 2022
Background: It has been seen that volatile anaesthetics agents which are speedily eliminated with minimal breakdown should facilitate faster recovery from general anaesthesia.

Desflurane improves lung collapse more than propofol during one-lung ventilation and reduces operation time in lobectomy by video-assisted thoracic surgery: a randomized controlled trial

BMC Anesthesiology, 2022
Background This study evaluated whether desflurane improved lung collapse during one-lung ventilation (OLV) more than propofol, and whether it could reduce the operation time of video-assisted thoracic surgery. Methods Sixty patients undergoing lobectomy

Comparison of the effects of intravenous propofol and inhalational desflurane on the quality of early recovery after hand-assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy: a prospective, randomised controlled trial

BMJ Open, 2020
Objectives We compared early recovery outcomes between living kidney donors who received total intravenous (IV) propofol versus inhalational desflurane during hand-assisted laparoscopic nephrectomy.Design A single-centre, prospective randomised ...

Research progress on the depth of anesthesia monitoring based on the electroencephalogram

Ibrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 32-43, Spring 2025.
Electroencephalogram (EEG) can noninvasive, continuous, and real‐time monitor the state of brain electrical activity, and the monitoring of EEG can reflect changes in the depth of anesthesia (DOA). The development of artificial intelligence can enable anesthesiologists to extract, analyze, and quantify DOA from complex EEG data.

Developing a quality improvement project to tackle the desflurane problem

BMJ Open Quality, 2023
Anaesthesia is associated with the routine use of volatile anaesthetic agents, all of which are potent greenhouse gases in varying degrees. Desflurane, in particular, has a high global warming potential and in recent years, there has been a global ...

Impact of propofol‐based vs. volatile‐based anaesthesia on survival and recurrence after cancer surgery: a systematic review and meta‐analysis of randomised trials

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Choice of peri‐operative anaesthetic technique may influence cancer recurrence, survival and mortality following curative surgery. Conflicting evidence exists on whether propofol‐based anaesthesia improves outcomes over volatile anaesthesia.

Desflurane preconditioning induces oscillation of NF-κB in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) has been implicated in anesthetic preconditioning (APC) induced protection against anoxia and reoxygenation (A/R) injury.
