Intravenous agents are commonly used for induction of anaesthesia in adults followed by inhalational agents for maintenance. A problem with this technique is transition phase from induction to maintenance. Rapid redistribution of Intravenous agent could lead to lightening of anaesthesia before adequate depth is attained with inhalational agent. As nasal surgeries like FESS requires a blood less field with minimal hemodynamic variability, present study is undertaken to compare hemodynamic variability and induction time using Propofol versus Sevoflurane for both induction and maintenance of anaesthesia in adult nasal surgeries. Materials and Methods: This Quasi Experimental study was conducted in Department of Anaesthesia, Yenepoya Medical College Hospital, Mangalore during the period between October 2015 and October 2017. 60 patients were randomly divided into one of the two groups by envelope method in which Group P patients (n = 30) was induced with Propofol 2 mg/kg and maintained with Propofol infusion at 100 mcg/kg/min and Group S patients (n = 30) was induced with Sevoflurane 8% and maintained with Sevoflurane 2%. Induction time was noted.
