Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Comparison of the effects of desflurane and sevoflurane on the QTc interval and QT dispersion.
The effects of desflurane and sevoflurane on QT interval and QT dispersion have been investigated in a prospective, double-blind, randomized study of patients undergoing noncardiac surgery. ⋯ The QTc interval was more prolonged with desflurane than sevoflurane, and QT dispersion was normal with both agents.
