Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Patients With Adverse Events Following LMA Removal

    All patients received a predetermined Ce of remifentanil by TCI according to their group assignments from 10 minutes before the end of surgery to LMA removal. Adverse events such as coughing, airway obstruction, breath-holding, desaturation, nausea and vomiting were evaluated from the end of surgery until arrival in the post-anesthetic care unit.

    from the end of surgery until arrival in the post-anesthetic care unit, an expected average of 15 minutes.
