Text: Compared with the sufentanil 0. 4-ng / mL group, 0. 2 - and 0. 3-ng / mL groups had shorter times to eye opening (24. 8 min [SD 7. 8] and 52. 6 min [12. 5] v 85. 6 min [10. 0], respectively), spontaneous breathing (32. 7 min [19. 9] and 70. 1 min [27. 2] v 137. 5 min [20. 8], respectively), and extubation (112. 2 min [16. 9] and 161. 9 min [32. 9] v 271. 3 min [27. 4], respectively ; p < 0. 001), more frequent changes in propofol concentrations (p < 0. 001), higher cumulative propofol doses, lower cumulative sufentanil doses, and 33 % to 44 % lower total cost (p < 0. 001).
