Comparison of Deep Extubation During Emergence Using Desflurane or Desflurane With Remifentanil in Patients Undergoing General Anesthesia

It has been reported that deep extubation can reduce cardiopulmonary complication against endotracheal tube extubation during emergence from general anesthesia. The investigators hypothesized that using desflurane with target controlled infusion of remifentanil is more effective than using desflurane alone during deep extubation. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of remifentanil to prevent respiratory complication (etc. coughing) during emergence from general anesthesia.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Awakening Time
Time Frame: Participants will be followed from the time of extubation in operating room to the time of discharge from recovery room, an expected average of 1day.
The outcomes assessor will record from the time of extubation in operating room to the time of eye opening and mouth opening
Participants will be followed from the time of extubation in operating room to the time of discharge from recovery room, an expected average of 1day.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Success Rate & Complication Rate Including Cough
Time Frame: assessing the success rate of deep extubation without complication and the occurrance of cough from the completion of surgery to 5minute after extubation.
We will assess the success rate of deep extubation without complication and the occurrence of cough during emergence from general anesthesia.
assessing the success rate of deep extubation without complication and the occurrance of cough from the completion of surgery to 5minute after extubation.

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Postoperative Pain
Time Frame: Participants will be followed for the duration of postanesthesia care unit (PACU) stay, an expected average of 1 hour.
The outcomes assessor will evaluate the degree of postoperative pain using a numeric rating scale (NRS). (0 = no pain, 10 = unimaginable severe pain)
Participants will be followed for the duration of postanesthesia care unit (PACU) stay, an expected average of 1 hour.
