Popis: Summary The induction, maintenance and recovery characteristics of propofol anaesthesia were compared with thiopentone induction and halothane maintenance in 51 spontaneously breathing, intubated patients who underwent dental surgery. Induction with thiopentone produced fewer side effects than propofol, notably pain on injection. Control of the depth of anaesthesia was better in patients who breathed halothane than in those who received intermittent bolus doses of propofol. Recovery characteristics of the two groups were similar.
