It is planned to investigate whether obesity affects the recovery profile after anesthesia in pediatric patients. To evaluate recovery profile, time to spontaneous ventilation (the time between anesthetic discontinuation and beginning of spontaneous ventilation), LMA removal time (the time between anesthetic discontinuation and LMA removal), open eyes (the time between anesthetic discontinuation and eye opening in response to verbal stimulus or painful pinching), and PACU discharge will be also noted.
