Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess whether methylphenidate affects time of emergence from
isoflurane general anesthesia. Time to emergence was defined as the time from termination of
isoflurane to extubation. After stopping isoflurane infusion, when the patient breaths
spontaneously with adequate tidal volume and respiratory rates, the trachea will be extubated
and the time will be recorded.
