“…Esto se explicaría dado que el propofol tendría un efecto dual: procoagulante mediante la estimulación del efecto de las prostaglandinas y anticoagulante por inhibición de la ciclooxigenasa [27]. En 2008, Okuyucu et al, evaluó el sangrado intraoperatorio según el tipo de mantención de la anestesia general (TIVA propofol vs inhalatoria) determinando un menor sangrado con el uso de propofol [28]. A pesar de los resultados contradictorios, estas diferencias en la técnica anestésica suelen carecer de significado clínico.…”

“…The role of anesthetics in bleeding was also examined during tonsillectomy. Okuyucu et al randomized patients undergoing tonsillectomy to either propofol-based anesthesia ( n = 27) or to desflurane-based anesthesia ( n = 33) and demonstrated that propofol-based anesthesia was associated with less measured blood loss [ 11 ]. These studies indicate that an inhalation-based anesthetic technique is associated with more intraoperative bleeding than a propofol-based anesthetic technique for head and neck procedures.…”
