Comparison of vasodilatory properties between desflurane and sevoflurane using perfusion index: a randomised controlled trial.

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 2020
BACKGROUND The perfusion index (PI), calculated from the photoplethysmographic waveform, reflects peripheral vasomotor tone. As such, the PI serves as a surrogate for quantitative measures of drug-induced vasoconstriction or vasodilation.

Hyperventilation accelerates the rise of arterial blood concentrations of desflurane in gynecologic patients

Clinics, 2012
OBJECTIVES: Under a constant inspired concentration, the uptake of a volatile anesthetic into the arterial blood should mainly be governed by alveolar ventilation, according to the assumption that the patient's cardiac output remains stable during ...

Inhalational or total intravenous anaesthesia: is total intravenous anaesthesia useful and are there economic benefits? [PDF]

, 2011
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The comparison of inhalational and intravenous anaesthesia has been the subject of many controlled trials and meta-analyses. These reported diverse endpoints typically including measures of the speed and quality of induction of ...

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

Desflurane anesthesia shifts the circadian rhythm phase depending on the time of day of anesthesia

Scientific Reports, 2020
Desflurane is one of the most frequently used inhalational anesthetics in clinical practice. A circadian rhythm phase-shift after general anesthesia with sevoflurane or isoflurane has been reported in mice, but few studies have reported this effect with ...

Critical Changes in Cortical Neuronal Interactions in Anesthetized and Awake Rats [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Neuronal interactions are fundamental for information processing, cognition and consciousness. Anesthetics reduce spontaneous cortical activity; however, neuronal reactivity to sensory stimuli is often preserved or augmented.

Desflurane protects against liver ischemia/reperfusion injury via regulating miR-135b-5p

Journal of the Chinese Medical Association, 2020
Background: A number of anesthetics have protective effect against ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, including desflurane. But the function and molecular mechanism of desflurane in liver I/R injury have not been fully understood.

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.

Propofol-based total intravenous anaesthesia is associated with better survival than desflurane anaesthesia in hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma: a retrospective cohort study.

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 2019
BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that anaesthetic technique can affect outcomes of cancer surgery. We investigated the association between anaesthetic technique and patient outcomes after elective hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma ...
