Abstract
Summary: The induction characteristics of sevoflurane and halothane were compared in 81 children aged 6 months to 6 years. The mean time taken to achieve loss of eyelash reflex was significantly shorter with sevoflurane than with halothane (sevoflurane, mean time (SD) 1 min 41 s (35 s), halothane, mean time (SD) 2 min 17 s (43 s), t = 4.11, p = .Keywords
