Right Lateral Positioning and Its Effect on Induction of General Anesthesia for Children
The quality of induction with sevoflurane, along with its ability to generate optimal conditions for Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) insertion without supplemental opioids or muscle relaxants, has also been well documented. An ideal inhalation induction technique besides being rapid and comfortable for the patient should be economical. To achieve rapidity, use of vital capacity breaths with 8% sevoflurane is a more popular method of induction compared with the conventional incremental induction.
