| Popis: | Summary This study compared the induction time, haemodynamic changes, recovery characteristics and patient satisfaction for sevoflurane and propofol when used as the main anaesthetic agents for cardioversion. Sixty-one unpremedicated patients scheduled for elective cardioversion were anaesthetised with either inhaled sevoflurane 8% or an intravenous propofol target-controlled infusion set at 6 µg.ml−1. There was no significant difference in induction time between the two groups: mean (SD) = 90.1(40) s in the sevoflurane group vs. 83.7(35) s in the propofol group. Mean (SD) time to recovery was significantly shorter in the sevoflurane group than in the propofol group: 318 (127) s vs. 738 (355) s, respectively, p |
