Comparison of Intraoperative Hemodynamic Stability, Recovery Profile Desflurane vs Sevoflurane during Anesthesia for Cranioplasty: A Randomized Trial

Abstract Cranioplasty is a procedure in which the bone flap replaced after decompressive craniotomy, once patient’s condition stabilizes. Rapid recovery important this surgery for recognizing early complications and immediate intervention. Newer inhalation agents such as desflurane sevoflurane are widely used neurosurgery. But not much research has been done anesthetic management elective cranioplasty patients. In our study, we compared maintenance of anesthesia during cranioplasty. Emergence time, extubation GCS Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale (RASS) were noted. The emergence time was significantly lower group. RASS score at extubation, on arrival to PACU 30 minutes also group than conclusion, with safe beneficial patients due its rapid recovery, thus offering specific advantage complications.
