Postoperative Effects of Propofol Versus Sevoflurane Anesthesia

February 16, 2024 updated by: Damanhour Teaching Hospital

Postoperative Effects of Propofol Versus Sevoflurane Anesthesia During Elective Non-Cardiac Surgeries. A Randomized Clinical Trial

Background: The choice of appropriate anesthetics is essential to protect brain function, decrease perioperative complications, and provide high-quality care, and better quality of life.

Objectives: To compare the efficacy and safety of propofol versus sevoflurane in patients undergoing elective, non-cardiac operations under general anesthesia.

Methods: This was a randomized (1:1), parallel, phase four clinical trial; carried out on 44 patients, who were candidates for elective, non-cardiac operations under general anesthesia at our hospital. Patients were randomly allocated into two equal groups in which anesthesia was maintained with propofol infusion in group P and sevoflurane inhalation in group S.
