To guarantee efficient operating room (OR) activity, tracheal extubation is often performed in the postanesthesia care unit (PACU). Therefore, the ability of PACU to accommodate postoperative patients is crucial. Optimizing extubation management may speed up the turnover of PACU beds. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of remifentanil, which is used during analepsia, on the length of PACU stay in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for endometrial cancer.
