Summary

This study compares two common anesthesia gases, sevoflurane and desflurane, to see which one puts less strain on the lungs during gallbladder removal surgery. Researchers will measure lung mechanics at three points during the operation in 138 adults. The goal is to find out if one gas is safer for breathing, which could help guide future anesthesia choices.
