Propofol and Sevoflurane Induction and Recovery in Daycare Adult Tonsillectomies

Abstract

Background: A patient may receive an ambulatory anaesthetic if they are undergoing an 
elective surgical operation on a deliberately selected day, with all of the necessary 
components being performed on the same day. It's no exaggeration to say that ambulatory 
anaesthesia is a hot new field in the field of anaesthesia. Material and Methods: The study 
design was a prospective randomised trial. After receiving approval from an ethics committee 
and the hospital administration, the researchers in this study conducted their work in the ENT 
operating room at Department of Anaesthesia, MNR Medical College and Hospitals, 
Fasalwadi, Sangareddy Mandal, Sangareddy District, Telangana, India, from November 2021 
to October 2022. Results: To conduct the study, researchers randomly assigned 30 patients to 
two groups of 15. The first group (n = 15) was given propofol anaesthesia. Sevoflurane 
Anesthesia was used on Group 2 (n=15). Sevoflurane induction is more difficult and takes 
longer to recover from compared to Propofol in adult tonsillectomies.
