    AbstractFifty young healthy and unpremedicated patients scheduled for removal of impacted teeth were randomly allocated to receive either total intravenous anaesthesia with propofol or conventional thiopentone/isoflurane/nitrous oxide anaesthesia. A double-blind postoperative assessment showed the former group to have a shorter reversal time and faster recovery of faculties, i.e. speech, memory as well as ability to sit up and walk without assistance (P < 0.01). There was no incidence of hypotension and of awareness in either group. The incidence of headache, nausea and vomiting was higher in the thiopentone/isoflurane/nitrous oxide group.
