NCT01191476

Brief Summary

This study is being performed to compare the cost of anesthetic techniques with sevoflurane (low fresh gas flow balanced anesthesia) versus propofol (target controlled infusion \[TCI\]) versus propofol induction and sevoflurane maintenance anesthesia in subjects undergoing elective laparoscopic surgery with predicted anesthesic use between 1 and 3 hour duration.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Cost of Volatile Induction and Maintenance Anesthesia (VIMA) With Sevoflurane, Total Intravenous Anesthesia (TIVA) With Propofol, or Intravenous Induction With Propofol and Inhalational Maintenance With Sevoflurane

    \[Cost of VIMA = unit price of sevoflurane X used volume of sevoflurane\]; \[Cost of TIVA = unit price of propofol X total volume of propofol in the syringe\]; \[Cost of Propofol Induction and Sevoflurane Maintenance = unit price of propofol X total volume of propofol in the syringe + unit price of sevoflurane X volume of sevoflurane in the syringe\]. The total volume of propofol in the syringe was calculated, even if all the anesthetic was not used, because it could not be reused.

    Anesthetic Duration between 1 to 3 Hours

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Time to Loss of Consciousness

    Up to 10 minutes

  • Time to Eye Opening

    Every minute after anesthesia was stopped until the subjects' eyes opened

  • Time to Extubation

    Every minute after anesthesia was stopped until extubation occurred

  • Time to Orientation

    Every minute after anesthesia was stopped until orientation occurred

Study Arms (3)

Sevoflurane

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Subjects received sevoflurane, a inhalational (volatile) anesthetic, which was administered for induction and maintenance of general anesthesia. Inhalational induction was induced via vital capacity induction at 8% and maintained at 0.8-1.5 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC).

Drug: Sevoflurane Inhalational Induction and Maintenance

Propofol

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Subjects received propofol, an intravenous (IV) anesthetic, which was administered for induction and maintenance of general anesthesia.

Drug: Propofol Target Controlled Infusion for Induction and Maintenance

Propofol Induction and Sevoflurane Maintenance

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Subjects received a bolus dose of propofol of 1.5 mg/kg administered for IV induction followed by sevoflurane at 0.8-1.5 MAC for maintenance anesthesia.

Drug: Propofol Target Controlled Infusion for Induction and Sevoflurane Inhalation for Maintenance

Interventions

Sevoflurane was administered at a concentration of 8% via vital capacity induction and sevoflurane 0.8-1.5 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) with a rate of 1 L/min fresh gas flow for maintenance.

Also known as: ABT-941, sevoflurane, Ultane, Sevorane, Sevofrane
Sevoflurane

Propofol IV 4 ug/mL was administered with target controlled infusion (TCI) for induction and propofol 3 to 6 ug/mL was administered with TCI for maintenance.

Also known as: Propofol
Propofol

Propofol was administered as a bolus IV dose of 1.5 mg/kg for induction at a rate of 40 mg/10 seconds. During maintenance, a sevoflurane concentration of 0.8-1.5 minimal alveolar concentration (MAC) was administered at a rate of 1 L/min fresh gas flow.
