Özet

OBJECTIVES: Sevoflurane is an ideal agent for anesthesia since its respiratory irritant effect is minimal during mask induction. Emergence agitation (EA) is a common problem after anesthesia with sevoflurane. In this study it was aimed to compare the effects of dexmedetomidine and remifentanyl on emergence agitation after sevoflurane anesthesia in adults undergoing septoplasty operation.
