Study Arms (2)

Sevoflurane group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

general anesthesia will be maintained with sevoflurane

Procedure: Sevoflurane

TIVA group

EXPERIMENTAL

general anesthesia will be maintained with total intravenous anesthesia (propofol and remifentanyl)

Procedure: TIVA

Interventions

TIVAPROCEDURE

TIVA is use to anesthesia maintenance after anesthesia induction (Propofol 10mg/kg/h, Remifentanil 0.2mcg/kg/min, dose adaptation as required for sufficient anesthesia)

TIVA group
SevofluranePROCEDURE

Sevoflurane is use to anesthesia maintenance after anesthesia induction (target et 2 Vol% in 50-70% N2O, dose adaptation as required)

Sevoflurane group
