Laryngeal Mask Airway
Conditions
Brief summary
Desflurane is known to be the most pungent of the currently used volatile anesthetics. The investigators tried to find out if desflurane increases the incidence of perioperative upper airway complications in infants and children undergoing general anesthesia using supraglottic airways compared to sevoflurane.
Detailed description
The investigators retrospectively reviewed and analyzed the electrical medical records of consecutive children aged 1 to 15 years who underwent general anesthesia under supraglottic airways using sevoflurane or desflurane as maintenance agents.
