Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of conventional low flow anesthesia (LFA) with initial high fresh gas flow ( 4L/min) for 10 minutes and LFA with fixed fresh gas flow rate (1L/min).

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Conventional group

After standart intravenous anesthesia induction end endotracheal intubation desflurane vaporizer will be set at 6% with fresh gas flow rate 4 L/min (50% O2, 50% air) until the EtAA concentration reaches 0.7 MAC (minimum alveolar concentration) Then, the desflurane vaporizer will be at a 1% higher value than the EtAA concentration required to achieve 0.7 MAC. And after 10 minutes fresh gas flow rate will be reduced to 1L/min.

Procedure: Conventional Low flow Anesthesia
During the initial wash-in period 4 L/min Fresh gas flow will be used.

Active Comparator: Fixed Fresh Gas Flow Rate group

After standart intravenous anesthesia induction end endotracheal intubation desflurane vaporizer will be set at 18% with fresh gas flow rate 1 L/min (50% O2, 50% air) until the EtAA concentration reaches 0.7 MAC (minimum alveolar concentration) Then, the desflurane vaporizer will be at a 2% higher value than the EtAA concentration required to achieve 0.7 MAC.

Procedure: Low Flow Anesthesia with fixed fresh gas flow rate
Fresh gas flow rate will be 1 L/min throughout the procedure.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. The time required to reach 0.7 MAC [perioperative]

  2. number of adjustments made to the vaporizer settings [perioperative]

    MAC will be held between 0.6-0.8 with adjustments at the vaporizer

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. anesthetic agent consumption [perioperative]

    desfluane consumption at the first hour and at the end of the surgery wil be recorded
