Abstract

Background: The ideal anesthetic should produce a rapid and smooth onset of action, intra-operative amnesia and analgesia, good surgical conditions and a short recovery period without side-effects.
Objective: To evaluate recovery from Anesthesia with Isoflurane and Halothane in Day care surgery
Design: This was a hospital based Retro prospective Study Duration: One Year January 2019 to December 2019
Setting: Department of Surgery, Owaisi Hospital & Research Centre Participants: 60 Patients undergoing day care surgeries.
Methods: This study was conducted in sixty patients (thirty patients in Group-I and thirty patients in Group-II). Glyucopyrrolate 0.2 mg i.v was given. Patient was induced with 1% propofol 2 mg/kg; slowly i.e. every 4 ml in 10 seconds until the eyelash reflex was obtunded. On abolition of eyelash reflex patient was maintained on spontaneous ventilation by using Magill’s circuit with N20 6 Lts; 02 3 Ltrs. and Isoflurane 1.5% in Group-I or Halothane 1.5% in group-II patients.

Results: The early and intermediate recovery is faster with isoflurane than with halothane. The discharge times are also earlier with isoflurane than with halothane.
Conclusion: Isoflurane is a useful and better anesthetic even halothane and offers a clear advantage when used for maintenance of Anesthesia for operations of short duration performed on a day-care basis.
