Sevoflurane is an inhalational agent widely used in general anesthesia, both for induction and maintenance of anesthesia. It is not irritative on the airways and has a pleasant smell. Within their properties are: low partition coefficient blood / gas (rapid induction and awakening), low heart, liver and kidney toxicity. Inhalational induction in pediatric anesthesia with this agent is frequent to avoid vein puncture in awake patients and is generally done with maximum doses available to obtain a fast loss of consciousness.
