Abstract
BACKGROUND: There have been recent studies suggesting that patients anesthetized withpropofol have less postoperative pain compared with patients anesthetized with volatile anesthetics. METHODS: In this randomized, double-blind study, 80 patients undergoing day-case diagnostic laparoscopic gynecological surgery were either anesthetized with IV propofol or sevoflurane. The primary outcome measured was pain on a visual analog scale. RESULTS:Patients anesthetized withpropofol had less pain compared with patients anesthetized withsevoflurane (P = 0.01). There was no difference in any of the other measured clinical outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: The patients anesthetized withpropofol appeared to have less pain than patients anesthetized withsevoflurane.
