Özet
OBJECTIVE: Hemorrhage during tonsillectomy is related to the surgical technique, management of bleeding, and choice of anesthetic agent. This study evaluated the effects of anesthetic agents on hemorrhage during tonsillectomy with standardized surgical techniques and management of bleeding. STUDY DESIGN: Double-blind, randomized controlled trial. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Sixty patients, aged 3 to 12 years, who were scheduled for elective tonsillectomy were enrolled in the study. Propofol-based anesthesia was administered to the first group; desflurane-based anesthesia, to the second. The amount of blood loss due to hemorrhage was measured. RESULTS: Propofol-based anesthesia significantly decreased bleeding during tonsillectomy. CONCLUSION: Propofol-based anesthesia is a reliable method for use in children who undergo tonsillectomy.
