Enhancing Recovery
with Desflurane
outcome and Efficacy
Morbidly
obese patients• Often have cardiopulmonary and
associated pathologies
• Vulnerable to airway complications,
sleep apnoea and hypoxia during early
recovery
• Fast emergence might benefit recovery
and patient comfort
• Rate of emergence influenced by amount
of anaesthetic deposited in adipose
tissue
• The low solubility of desflurane in blood,
fat and other tissues are key properties
for obese patients

• After propofol induction, patients were randomly assigned
to receive either 6% desflurane (n=14) or 2% sevoflurane
(n=14) in O2/air for 30 minutes while sampling of inspired
and end-tidal of gases was performed

•Cognitive impairment such as delirium and confusion can
be a problem during recovery in elderly surgical patients11
•Rapid recovery from prolonged anaesthesia may be an
advantage in the elderly11.
•Desflurane is highly lipid insoluble what makes it well
suited particularly in the elderly, because they have a
greater proportion of their body mass as fat than do
younger patients.27

Spinal
surgery
• Surgical procedures on the
vertebral column carry a risk of
spinal cord damage, which must
be detected early so it can be
surgically revised9
• Paraplegia is one of the most
feared complications. The ‘gold-
standard’ test involves waking the
patient intraoperatively 9
• Desflurane is particularly useful
for spinal surgery as it gives fast
awakening times 9. Grottke O, Dietrich P J, Wiegels S, Wappler F. Anesth Analg 2004;99(5):1521-1527

• Rapid emergence from
anaesthesia is highly desirable
in order to allow tracheal

Maintenance anaesthesia in children
•Desflurane is not recommended
for induction in children, but
can be used for maintenance
after induction by other means
•Children may experience
agitation during emergence
from a potent inhaled
anaesthetic17

surgery
• Premedication: Rectal paracetamol 60 min before
induction and midazolam 30 min before induction
• Induction: Mask induction with sevoflurane
• Maintenance: desflurane or sevoflurane (each at 1.0 ±

“ In conclusion, the use of desflurane for maintenance
of anaesthesia after sevoflurane induction in children
is associated with less severe emergence agitation and
faster emergence times.”
Mayer et al - conclusions17CHILDREN
(Maintenance)
Other studies show different results,
may be due to the usage of scores that
have never been validated for
emergence agitation and/or not
providing a validated threshold value in
the PAED scale to indicate emergence
agitation, thus no conclusions can be
drawn with respect to its incidence.

Changing the anesthetic
agent from sevoflurane to
desflurane after sevoflurane
induction provides faster
emergence and recovery
compared with sevoflurane
anesthesia.
No significant differences between groups on visual analogue scale assessing postoperative nausea and vomiting, eye pain and patient satisfaction regarding anesthesia.

Selection of anesthetic agents should
be based not only on safety and
efficacy, but also economic profiles.
Patients in both desflurane and propofol group
showed similar emergence and recovery profiles.
However, costs of propofol TCI regimen were
significant higher than desflurane inhalation
group.
Low-flow anaesthesia is characterized by economy in the
use of anaesthetic agents and reduced atmospheric
pollution.
As the carrier gas flow rate is reduced, an
increasing disparity develops between the
fresh gas and the inspired gas mixtures. The
fresh gas composition increasingly needs to
reflect the patient’s uptake of its components.
A progressive reduction in a
practitioner’s gas flow rates permits
safe and relaxed self-learning of this
technique.

25 children aged 2-10 years, undergoing elective cataract surgery.. A subtenon block was administered in all children before surgical incision. Desflurane was used for maintenance of anesthesia. Predetermined end tidal concentration of desflurane was maintained for 10 min at the end of surgery before LMA removal was attempted Patient responses to LMA removal were classified as “movement” or “no movement.”

surgery using a laryngeal mask airway: A randomized, double-blinded controlled trial
to compare time to awakening and upper airway morbidity between desflurane and sevoflurane using a Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) and a balanced anesthetic regimen inclusive of opioids. Desflurane retains faster awakening properties than does sevoflurane when used in combination with fentanyl as part of anesthetic maintenance in outpatient surgery with a LMA

De Oliveira GS, et al.
. The balanced anesthetic maintenance regimen seems to reduce the potential airway reactivity properties of desflurane.
A systematic review of RCTs of patients receiving general
anesthesia with a LMA was performed. Sevoflurane and
desflurane were used for maintenance of anesthesia in the
RCTs. A wide search was performed to identify RCTs
comparing desflurane with sevoflurane on the incidence of
upper respiratory adverse events in patients undergoing
surgery with a LMA. The primary outcomes were incidence of
cough and laryngospasm. A random-effects model was used
to perform quantitative analysis.
The effect of sevoflurane versus desflurane on the
incidence of upper respiratory morbidity in patients
undergoing general anesthesia with a Laryngeal Mask Airway: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials☆
Gildasio S. de Oliveira Jr.
Journal of Clinical Anesthesia 25(6),September 2013, Pages 452–458
Main ResultsData originating from 7 studies comprising 657 subjects were analyzed. The confidence interval (CI) was large relative to a clinically significant difference in the incidence of overall cough and laryngospasm in patients receiving desflurane versus sevoflurane (odds ratio [OR; 95% CI] of 1.44 [0.49 - 4.1] and 3.06 [0.43 - 21.62]), respectively. The incidence of cough at emergence was greater in subjects receiving desflurane compared with sevoflurane (OR [95% CI] of 2.43 [1.2 - 4.7], number needed to harm [NNH] = 9.0); however, the analysis was limited
by the presence of an asymmetric funnel plot suggesting the
possibility of publication bias.
Journal of Clinical Anesthesia 25(6),September 2013, Pages 452–458
There is a lack of evidence that
desflurane causes a greater
incidence of upper airway
adverse events than sevoflurane
in patients undergoing general
anesthesia with a LMA.
A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (RCTs).
13 RCTs were included and analysed.
There was no difference in the rates of upper airway events between
desflurane and sevoflurane or between desflurane and a control group consisting of
all the other anaesthetics combined.
Comparing desflurane (n = 284) with all other anaesthetic groups (n = 313), the risk ratio [95% confidence interval (95% CI)] was 1.12 (0.63 to 2.02, P = 0.70).
Cough at emergence was only measured in patients receiving desflurane (n = 148) and sevoflurane (n = 146): the risk ratio (95% CI) was 1.49 (0.55 to 4.02, P = 0.43).
Laryngospasm was rare and there was no significant difference in its incidence
when desflurane (n = 262) was compared with all other anaesthetics combined (n = 289; risk ratio 1.03; 95% CI 0.33 to 3.20, P = 0.96).
Desflurane's short emergence time supports fast track anaesthesia. Data on the rate of upper airway complications and emergence time when desflurane is used with laryngeal mask airway (LMA) are controversial and limited.
Afshari A, Wetterslev J. When may systematic reviews and meta-analyses be considered reliable? Eur J Anaesthesiol 2015; 32:85–87.
The times of all emergence variables were significantly
faster in the desflurane group than in all other groups.
When using an LMA, upper airway adverse reactions in
association with desflurane anaesthesia were no different from those noted with sevoflurane, isoflurane or propofol
anaesthesia. Emergence from general anaesthesia with
desflurane is significantly faster than all the other
anaesthetics. Due to interstudy variations and the small size
of the trials, further large-scale, multicentre studies are
required to confirm or refute the results of this meta-analysis.

Postoperative Pulmonary Complication
• General anesthetic techniques that produce better level of consciousness to patients
in the recovery room predicts postoperative pulmonary complications
• Increased pharyngeal dysfunction at subhypnotic anesthetic concentration.2
• Incidence of critical respiratory events in the post-anesthesia care unit varies
between 0.8% and 6.9%.1

Results
Primary outcome:
• Phase I recovery time decreased by 13.9% ,
72 vs. 62 minutes in Epoch I and II, respectively,(P <0.001)
• 30% reduction in respiratory events
• 29% reduction in administration of antihypertensive
medication
