    Abstract

    A patient may receive an ambulatory anaesthetic if they are undergoing an elective surgical operation on a deliberately selected day, with all of the necessary components being performed on the same day. It's no exaggeration to say that ambulatory anaesthesia is a hot new field in the field of anaesthesia. Material and Methods: The study design was a prospective randomised trial. After receiving approval from an ethics committee and the hospital administration, the researchers in this study conducted their work in the ENT operating room at Department of Anaesthesia, MNR Medical College and Hospitals, Fasalwadi, Sangareddy Mandal, Sangareddy District, Telangana, India, from November 2021 to October 2022. Results: To conduct the study, researchers randomly assigned 30 patients to two groups of 15. The first group (n = 15) was given propofol anaesthesia. Sevoflurane Anesthesia was used on Group 2 (n=15). Sevoflurane induction is more difficult and takes longer to recover from compared to Propofol in adult tonsillectomies. Both groups have a similar rate of apnea occurrence. Conclusion: Both groups had similar Phase I & II recuperation periods. A statistically insignificant correlation between sevoflurane anaesthesia and postoperative pain incidence was found. Propofol is superior to other sedatives and anaesthetics for inducing and maintaining anaesthesia during outpatient procedures on adults. It has a shorter induction time and lower rates of postoperative nausea, vomiting, and pain.
