Summary

This randomized, double-blind, controlled clinical trial aims to compare the effects of low-flow sevoflurane and desflurane anesthesia on physiological parameters and recovery profiles in adult patients undergoing ENT surgeries. The primary outcomes include heart rate, mean arterial pressure, peripheral oxygen saturation, end-tidal CO₂, and arterial blood gas values. Secondary outcomes involve time to spontaneous respiration, extubation, and response to verbal commands.

Conditions

  • Anesthesia, General

Interventions

DRUG

Sevoflurane

Sevoflurane will be administered via inhalation under low-flow anesthesia conditions. The concentration will be maintained at 2-3% (0.8-1 MAC) with a fresh gas flow of 1 L/min (50% oxygen and 50% air) after induction. Used in Group S (Sevoflurane Low-Flow Anesthesia Arm).

DRUG

Desflurane

Desflurane will be administered via inhalation under low-flow anesthesia conditions. The concentration will be maintained at 4-6% (0.8-1 MAC) with a fresh gas flow of 1 L/min (50% oxygen and 50% air) after induction. Used in Group D (Desflurane Low-Flow Anesthesia Arm).
