Recovery profile of desflurane with air or nitrous oxide in patients undergoing general anesthesia – A prospective cohort study [PDF]
Journal of Anaesthesiology Clinical PharmacologyBackground 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 ...
