Cardiac function was assessed in 30 healthy patients who received total intravenous anaesthesia with propofol and remifentanil.

This prospective randomised study compared the antitussive effect of remifentanil during recovery from either propofol or sevoflurane anaesthesia. Seventy‐four female patients undergoing thyroidectomy were anaesthetised with either propofol and remifentanil or sevoflurane and remifentanil. During recovery, remifentanil was maintained at an effect‐site concentration of 2 ng.ml−1 until extubation and...
