Brief Summary
The first aim of this study is to compare two methods of administration of intravenous anesthetics to obtain the same level of depth (bispectral index between 40 and 60): manual or automated and to determine a mid-term (6 months) influence of the frail phenotype on self-sufficient elderly patients after general anesthesia.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Rate of patients without occurrence of disability according to the InterRai scale
Disability is evaluated using the InterRai scale; a death is considered as an irreversible disability institutionalization is considered as a severe disability InterRai scale would discriminate other patients

Mortality at day 28
28 days
Mortality at month 6
6 months
Rate of postoperative cognitive dysfunction

Study Arms (2)
Toolbox: Automated group
EXPERIMENTALToolbox: Automated administration of intravenous anesthetic (propofol 1%) and analgesic (remifentanil, Ultiva(r)) guided by the Bispectral index through a controller with a previously described algorithm. Objective of depth anesthesia: 40-60
Manual group
ACTIVE COMPARATORManual administration of intravenous anesthetic (propofol 1%) and analgesic (remifentanil, Ultiva(r)) guided by the Bispectral index as usually performed in the operative theater. Objective of depth anesthesia: 40-60
Interventions
A dedicated algorithm controls the infusion rate of drugs depending on the magnitude of variation of the bispectral index
The anesthesiologist controls the infusion rate of drugs depending of the magnitude of variation of the bispectral index
