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.
