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

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 ...

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.

A randomised prospective comparison of equilibration point and changing gas composition during low-flow anaesthesia with sevoflurane vs desflurane

Indian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2019
Background and Aims: Safety and economy are the main concerns while using low- flow anaesthesia with newer inhalational agents. The main objective of this study was to use and compare 'equilibration time' of sevoflurane and desflurane after change-over ...

A randomised controlled trial comparing quality of recovery between desflurane and isoflurane inhalation anaesthesia in patients undergoing ophthalmological surgery at a tertiary hospital in South Africa (DIQoR trial)

BJA Open
Background: The patient's experience of their postoperative recovery is an important perioperative outcome, with the 15-item quality of recovery scale (QoR-15) recommended as a standardised outcomes measure.

Desflurane Allows for a Faster Emergence when Compared to Sevoflurane Without Affecting the Baseline Cognitive Recovery Time.

Frontiers in Medicine, 2015
Aims, We compared the effect of desflurane and sevoflurane on anesthesia recovery time in patients undergoing urological cystoscopic surgery. The Short Orientation Memory Concentration Test (SOMCT) measured and compared cognitive impairment between ...
