Comparison of two different forms of sevoflurane for anaesthesia maintenance and recovery.
Sevoflurane is a commonly used inhalation agent. There are two forms of sevoflurane in Turkey. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of original versus generic sevoflurane products on hemodynamics, time to reach 1 MAC level, inspired and expired sevoflurane levels and postoperative recovery profile. ⋯ Although there are differences in maintenance period of the anaesthesia, the two products seem to be comparable routine anaesthesia practice. But further studies are needed to enhance our knowledge.
