Abstract
Background: Inhaled volatile anesthetic remains the most widely used drug for the maintenance of general anesthesia. These volatile anesthetic namely isoflurane, sevoflurane are in current practice for maintenance of anesthesia. Management of haemodynamic stability is the most important part of standardized balanced technique.
Material & Methods: The study was conducted in IGIMS, Patna and SKMCH, Muzaffarpur. The study was prospective and randomized, conducted in indoor patients belonging to either sex, after obtaining informed consent from each patient. Most of the patients are from urban population. Sixty ASA physical status I-II patients of either sex, aged 35-70 years and weighing 40-70 kg, scheduled for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia were randomly divided into three groups – group A and B with equal numbers
Results: We compared the recovery time after closing the inhalational agent isoflurane or sevoflurane. It was assess by eye opening, hand grip, extubation and answering name. It is less for Sevoflurane than Isoflurane.
Conclusion: In elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy operations agent of choice for maintenance of anesthesia will be sevoflurane followed by isoflurane according to early recovery characteristics.
