Abstract:
The induction and emergence times in patients who received minor oral surgery under sevoflurane with nitrous oxide or enflurane with nitrous oxide were compared. The induction time required for the loss of eyelid reflex when using sevoflurane (1.6 +/- 0.2 min) was significantly shorter than that in the enflurane group (2.9 +/- 0.4 min). There was no significant difference in the recovery time in the two groups.
