Cognitive dysfunction following desflurane versus sevoflurane general anesthesia in elderly patients: a randomized controlled trial. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
UnlabelledAs life expectancy increases, more patients ≥65 years undergo general anesthesia. Anesthetic agents may contribute to postoperative cognitive dysfunction, and incidence may differ with anesthetic agents or intraoperative anesthesia depth ...

Desflurane - Revisited

open access: yesJournal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology, 2012
The search for an ideal inhalational general anesthetic agent continues. Desflurane, which was recently introduced in the Indian market, possesses favorable pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties and is closer to the definition of an ideal agent. It offers the advantage of precise control over depth of anesthesia along with a rapid, predictable,

Desflurane Selectively Suppresses Long-latency Cortical Neuronal Response to Flash in the Rat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background—The effect of inhalational anesthetics on sensory-evoked unit activity in the cerebral cortex has been controversial. Desflurane has desirable properties for in vivo neurophysiologic studies but its effect on cortical neuronal activity and ...

Comparison of maintenance and emergence characteristics after desflurane or sevoflurane in outpatient anaesthesia

open access: yesIndian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2011
Both sevoflurane and desflurane have shorter emergence times compared to isoflurane based anaesthesia. Because of its pharmacological properties, desflurane appears to yield a rapid early and intermediate recovery compared with sevoflurane.

Comparison of the sevoflurane versus desflurane anaesthesia on the recovery of airway reflexes and cognitive function: An original research

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences, 2023
Background and Objectives: Sevoflurane and desflurane virtually equally dissolve in blood gases, yet current research suggests that desflurane helps in a quick return of airway reflex than sevoflurane however the return of cognitive activity fluctuates ...

Propofol-based Total Intravenous Anesthesia Is Associated with Better Survival Than Desflurane Anesthesia in Colon Cancer Surgery

open access: yesAnesthesiology, 2018
What We Already Know about This Topic Propofol may better preserve host defenses against cancer Whether cancer recurrence is less likely with propofol than volatile anesthesia remains unknown What This Article Tells Us That Is New The authors conducted a

Desflurane impairs hippocampal learning on day 1 of exposure: a prospective laboratory study in rats

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2019
Background Quick and complete recovery of cognitive function after general anesthesia is desirable, particularly for working-age patients. Desflurane is less likely to have long-term effects than older-generation inhalational anesthetics, however, its ...

Propofol-based intravenous anesthesia is associated with better survival than desflurane anesthesia in pancreatic cancer surgery

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Background Previous researches have shown that anesthetic techniques can influence the patient outcomes of cancer surgery. Here, we studied the relationship between type of anesthetic and patient outcomes following elective, open pancreatic cancer ...
