Summary

Smooth emergence (wake up) from anesthesia is an important consideration in patients undergoing neurosurgical procedures as blood pressure changes associated with violent emergence can cause intracranial hemorrhage and brain swelling. At the same time, emergence should also be quick so that patients' neurological function can be assessed at a timely manner. Pattern of emergence from anesthesia is poorly investigated and understood.
