Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
inhaled anaesthesia was maintained with 1.2-2.4 vol% of isoflurane depending on the vital sign to the point when the operation was predicted to end in an hour; subsequently, isoflurane was replaced with 1 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of inhaled desflurane (1 MAC of desflurane = 6 vol%) in 1.5 L/min oxygen (O2) and 1.5 L/min nitrous oxide (N2O)
Intervention code [1] 255751 0
Treatment: Drugs
Comparator / control treatment
1. inhaled anaesthesia was maintained with 1.2-2.4 vol% of isoflurane depending on the vital sign to the point when the operation was predicted to end in an hour; subsequently, isoflurane was maintained with 1 MAC of inhaled isoflurane (1MAC of isoflurane = 1.2 vol%) in 1.5 L/min O2 and 1.5 L/min N2O
2. . inhaled anaesthesia was maintained with 6-12 vol% of desflurane depending on the vital sign to the point when the operation was predicted to end in an hour; subsequently, desflurane was maintained with 1 MAC of inhaled desflurane (1 MAC of desflurane = 6 vol%) in 1.5 L/min O2 and 1.5 L/min N2O
