The child's behavior during inhalational induction and its impact on the anesthesiologist's sevoflurane exposure

ConclusionNegative behavior was accompanied by significantly higher mean and maximum sevoflurane concentrations in the anesthesiologist's breathing zone compared with children with positive attitudes. Consequently, the status of premedication influences the amount of sevoflurane pollution in the air of operating rooms.
