Brief Summary   Laparoscopic surgery is one of the most important diagnostic and therapeutic tools in the present surgical practice and has become the gold standard of minimal access surgery. The benefits of minimal access techniques include less pain, early mobilization, improved cosmetic aspects and shorter hospital stay, which have further increased its applications.The major problems during laparoscopic surgery are related to the cardiopulmonary effect of pneumoperitoneum, systemic carbon dioxide absorption, venous gas embolism, unintentional injuries to intraabdominal structures and patient positioning.Anaesthesia and surgery have certain inevitable negative impacts on the quality of life of patients, manifest as various discomforts after surgery even without specific complications. Moreover, prolonged recovery after surgery can lead to delayed hospital discharges and increased costs, which can impact resource utilization and mitigate patient satisfaction.Quality of recovery directly highlight the late recovery profile and reflects the high-quality anaesthetic services in an economically constrained healthcare environment.Emergence agitation (EA) after general anaesthesia is a pressing concern for anaesthesiologists, commonly seen in immediate post anaesthetic period.During the last few decades, the new volatile anaesthetics, sevoflurane and desflurane became commonly available in clinical practice.The pharmacokinetic properties of sevoflurane and desflurane offer firm control of anaesthesia and reduce the time for emergence from general anaesthesia, there by reducing procedure time and have the capacity to make anaesthesia even safer in high risk patients.Presently, the emergence effects of aforesaid inhalational anaesthetics is still not fully elucidated in adults.We hypothesized that difference in the intrinsic characteristics and the speed of emergence, of the two inhalational anaesthetics, would have direct effect on the progression of emergence agitation and recovery profile in adults. The aim of this prospective randomized double-blind study is to compare emergence agitation and recovery profile between desflurane and sevoflurane anaesthesia in adult patients undergoing laparascopic surgery.we will be using Qor-40 score, which  is now one of the most recent and extensively validated rating scale to measure the quality of recovery after surgery and anaesthesia in clinical and research situations. and also to evaluate the severity of emergence state by using a four-point categorical scale based on Aono‘s scale.
