Sevoflurane general anesthesia: an alternative technique in the pediatric oral and maxillofacial surgery patient.
The objective of this prospective descriptive study was to report our experience with an alternative general anesthetic technique, using sevoflurane for the pediatric patient, in an ambulatory setting. ⋯ The results of this prospective descriptive study indicate that this technique is an effective and acceptable alternative to other modalities for the control of apprehension and fear in the pediatric patient in an ambulatory oral and maxillofacial facility.
