Early emergence from anesthesia was assessed by measuring the time to respond to painful stimuli and to verbal command in a uniform method at 2-minute interval until full recovery is attained. Response to painful stimuli after discontinuance from isoflurane averaged 12.25 mins as compared to 11.5 mins from isoflurane + sevoflurane while response to verbal command was 21 mins and 19.25 mins in groups A and B respectively. Recovery times were not significantly increased in the isoflurane shifted to sevoflurane group. Isoflurance shifted to sevoflurane (Group B) does not provide a more rapid emergence than isoflurane group (Group A) after donor nephrectomy ER -
