Comparing the Efficacy Between Desflurane and Sevoflurane in Miantainance of Spontaneous General Anaesthesia Using Ambu Aura Gain in Paediatrics Patients
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating DESFLURANE AND SEVOFLURANE for Paediatrics and General Anaesthesia. Completed, enrolled 80 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Desflurane and Sevoflurane are one of the modern inhalational anaesthetic agents currently in use in anaesthetic practice. The properties of desflurane that has low blood gas solubility coefficient of 0.47 compared to sevoflurane (0.68) made it more advantageous when used with supraglottic airway in maintaining general anaesthesia in paediatrics . It ensures rapid onset and offset of anaesthesia. Rapid recovery profiles especially among pediatric populations is to ensure less complications associated with prolonged recovery of anaesthesia upon emergence from anaesthesia. Nevertherless, desflurane has its drawback which is it can cause airway irritability related to its pungency. Hence, it is not used as an induction anaesthetic agent in paediatrics. This study was done to evaluate the effectiveness of desflurane in comparison to sevoflurane in maintaining spontaneous general anaesthesia in paediatrics population using Ambu AuraGain .
