| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Anesthetic maintenance using sevoflurane without nitrous oxide is associated with a higher end tidal concentration of sevoflurane at emergence than sevoflurane with nitrous oxide; however, this difference may be dose-related. The anesthetic properties of these two maintenance methods do not seem to have a role in the incidence of emergence delirium or recovery profile. | — |
