Key result
Parturients anesthetized with sevoflurane for cesarean section recovered more rapidly (mean eye opening time 4.7 vs 6.8 minutes, P<0.05) compared with enflurane, with equally good neonatal outcomes.
Why the study?
Does sevoflurane improve recovery time and neonatal outcomes compared to enflurane in parturients undergoing elective cesarean section?
RCT (n=96)
Does sevoflurane improve recovery time and neonatal outcomes compared to enflurane in parturients undergoing elective cesarean section?
Sevoflurane provides faster recovery than enflurane for elective cesarean section without compromising maternal hemodynamics or neonatal outcomes.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Supports sevoflurane for faster recovery in cesarean anesthesia; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.

Suk et al. (2003) conducted an RCT in Elective cesarean section (n=96). Sevoflurane vs. Enflurane (1.0-1.5 vol%) was evaluated on Recovery time (eye opening) (p=<0.05). Parturients anesthetized with sevoflurane for cesarean section recovered more rapidly (mean eye opening time 4.7 vs 6.8 minutes, P<0.05) compared with enflurane, with equally good neonatal outcomes.
