Recovery Profile Comparison Between Remifentanil-propofol or Desflurane Anesthesia Monitored With Bispectral Index.

A Comparison of Post-operative Recovery Between Remifentanil-propofol and Remifentanil-desflurane Anesthesia Guided by Bispectral Index Monitoring

Bispectral monitoring anesthesia with remifentanil-desflurane has a better post-operative recovery than remifentanil-propofol.

Detailed Description

It is a randomized, double blind study, involving 40 adult female patients submitted to general anesthesia. The patients were distributed into 2 groups: remifentanil-propofol-based anesthesia and remifentanil-desflurane-based anesthesia groups. Bispectral index (BIS) monitoring guided the anesthesia by setting target BIS range value between 40 and 60. Anesthetics were adjusted to reached that. Primary outcome was: extubation time (time from anesthetic discontinuation to endotracheal tube cuff). Secondary measured outcomes: intra-operative cardiovascular drug use; time to follow command before extubation; protective airway reflex recovery time after extubation. Protective airway reflex test recovery was performed at predetermined time intervals (2, 6, 14, 22 and 30 minutes) from the time to follow a standard command until the first demonstrated ability to swallow 20 ml of water in an upright position.Post-anesthesia care unit recovery data were also recorded: Ramsay sedation scale; vital signs, post-operative pain; morphine consumption.
