A comparison of total intravenous anaesthesia using propofol with sevoflurane or desflurane in ambulatory surgery: systematic review and meta‐analysis

Abstract: SummaryWith the popularity of ambulatory surgery ever increasing, we carried out a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine whether the type of anaesthesia used had any bearing on patient outcomes. Total intravenous propofol anaesthesia was compared with two of the newer inhalational agents, sevoflurane and desflurane. In total, 18 trials were identified; only trials where nitrous oxide was administered to, or omitted from, both groups were included. A total of 1621 patients were randomly assigned to e… Show more

“…Participants were more nauseated after maintenance with desflurane than propofol, which is in keeping with other trials [27,28]. However, we also gave thiopentone to participants anaesthetised with desflurane, which causes more postoperative nausea and vomiting than propofol [29,30].…”

“…Then, the prevention and treatment of nausea and vomiting have become important subjects in anesthesiology [3]. Currently, even with new anesthetic techniques, which involve the use of prophylactic agents and the selection of anesthetics with lower emetic potentials, the incidence of PONV has not decreased and is still approximately 20% to 30% [4] [5] [6].…”
