Background
STILL
Transnasal humidified rapid-insufflation ventilatory exchange (THRIVE) has received extensive attention for its utility in tubeless anesthesia. Still, the effects of its carbon dioxide accumulation on emergence from anesthesia have not been reported. This randomized controlled trial aimed at exploring the impact of THRIVE combined with laryngeal mask (LM) on the quality of emergence in patients undergoing microlaryngeal surgery.
