Airway Reflexes, Protective, Recovery After Neuromuscular Block
Impact of Anesthetic Choice (Sevoflurane Versus Desflurane) on Airway Reflex Recovery in the Context of Antagonized Neuromuscular Block
Protective airway reflexes may be impaired in the postoperative period, creating the potential for aspiration of gastric contents, even after a patient exhibits appropriate response to command.

Stroke
Ventilation Strategies, Anesthetic Techniques and Cerebral Oxygenation in the Beach Chair Position
The seated or "beach chair" position during surgery and general anesthesia decreases brain oxygen levels and can result in stroke. As such, poor neurological outcome following beach chair positioning is a growing concern.

Airway Complication of Anaesthesia, Healthy
The Effects of General Anesthetics on Upper Airway Collapsibility in Healthy Subjects
The investigators hypothesize that propofol, when compared to sevoflurane, causes the upper airway to collapse more easily and causes less activity in the tongue muscle.

- NCT01557920
- Testing
- Propofol, Sevoflurane
