Bispectral index and their relation with consciousness of the patients who receive desflurane or sevoflurane anesthesia during wake-up test for spinal surgery for correction [PDF]
BackgroundWake-up tests may be necessary during surgery for kypho-scoliosis to ensure that spinal function remains intact. It is difficult to predict the time when patients can respond to a verbal command. We evaluated the effectiveness of the bispectral

Background and Aims: Desflurane helps in prompt awakening when discontinued. Since desflurane has a lesser blood: gas solubility than nitrous oxide, we hypothesized that use of air with desflurane would result in a rapid recovery compared to desflurane ...

Effects of desflurane on central and peripheral clock genes in mice
Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of the anesthetic drug, desflurane, on central and peripheral clock genes in mice. Methods C57BL/6J mice were anesthetized with different concentrations (3%, 4%, 6%, 7%, 9%) of desflurane, and then the ...

Assessing potential desflurane-induced neurotoxicity using nonhuman primate neural stem cell models
Safety concerns about general anesthetics (GA), such as desflurane (a commonly used gaseous anesthetic agent), arose from studies documenting neural cell death and behavioral changes after early-life exposure to anesthetics and compounds with related ...
