Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical TrialClinical and biochemical effects of propofol EDTA vs sevoflurane in healthy infants and young children.
Propofol is frequently used for the induction and maintenance of anaesthesia in children aged 3 years and older. The present study compared the clinical and chemical effects of propofol containing disodium edetate (Diprivan) with that of sevoflurane in children younger than 3 years of age. ⋯ In children younger than 3 years of age, propofol containing ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid has a similar profile to sevoflurane with respect to haemodynamic effects, recovery times, side-effects, ionized calcium and ionized magnesium levels.
