Desflurane Versus Propofol in the Sitting Position

The investigators hypothesized that both propofol and desflurane would decrease the regional oxygen saturation (rSO2) but propofol is likely to reduce rSO2 more than sevoflurane when patients are raised to the sitting position.

About this study

The investigators hypothesized that both propofol and desflurane would decrease the rSO2 but propofol is likely to reduce rSO2 more than sevoflurane when patients are raised to the sitting position. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of desflurane and propofol on rSO2 values during the beach chair position for shoulder arthroscopy.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Forty patients,
  • ASA class I or II,
  • undergoing shoulder arthroscopy

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients with history of cerebrovascular disease, coronary occlusive disease and/or obesity (body mass index > 30) were excluded from this study.

anaesthesia was induced with the effect-site concentration of propofol 5.0 μg ml-1 mainly.

Desflurane

Drug

anaesthesia was maintained by desflurane 4-7vol%

Other names: Des

alfentanil

Drug

administration of alfentanil 10 μg kg-1 for anesthetic induction

Primary outcomes

  1. Regional Cerebral Oxygen Satuation (rSO2)

    Time frame: 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 min after the beach chair position

    definitive values of regional cerebral oxygen saturation(rSO2,%) values are described as mean (SD)
