Background: Emergence Delirium (ED) is considered a usual complication in pediatric anesthesia. Aim: Analyze the quantitative and qualitative differences in ED in children receiving general anesthesia with sevoflurane or desflurane in day case surgery. Materials and Methods: Two hundred and two children, ASA I-II, who required outpatient elective day case surgery, were assigned to receive anesthesia with sevoflurane or desflurane. ED was assessed by a masked investigator using the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale at 5 and 15 minutes (min). Results: Mean time to wake up was shorter with desflurane compared with sevoflurane (6.0 versus 8.3 min, p = 0.0001).
