Aim of the study: To compare desflurane and sevoflurane for ambulatory surgery. Materials and methods: The study was conducted in the Department of Anesthesia of the medical institution. For the study we selected 120 patients belonging to American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I and II scheduled for surgical procedures at General Surgery department. The patients were randomly grouped into two groups with 120 patients in each group, Group S and Group D. Group S patients received Sevoflurane for maintenance of anesthesia whereas Group D received Desflurane for maintenance of anesthesia. Results: Mean age of patients in group S was 37.12 years and in group D was 39.15 years. Number of male patients in group S was 38 and in group D were 34. Total recovery time in group S was 33.41 min and in group D was 31.12 min. Conclusion: We conclude that Sevoflurane and Desflurane are efficacious in ambulatory surgical procedures. Some of the recovery parameters were seen to be taking more time duration in cases with Desflurane cases as compared to Sevoflurane cases; however, the results were statistically non-significant.
