Article Synopsis
  • The study compares the impact of two inhalation anesthetics, desflurane and sevoflurane, on oxidative status during laparoscopic cholecystectomy by evaluating thiol-disulfide homeostasis.
  • It involved 71 patients who were divided into two groups, with blood samples collected at three different times to measure various thiol levels and ratios.
  • The results indicated that sevoflurane showed a more significant reduction in oxidative stress markers, suggesting it may be more protective against oxidative damage during surgery than desflurane.
