Study Arms (2)

Spinal Anesthesia

EXPERIMENTAL

Oxygen supply will be done via nasal prong (2 L/min) when necessary. The local anesthetic used will be bupivacaine 0.6 mg/kg.

Diagnostic Test: Spinal anesthesia

General Anesthesia

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients will receive sevoflurane for induction and maintenance in an air/oxygen mixture along. Endotracheal tube will be inserted. No opioids or nitrous oxide was used intraoperatively.

Diagnostic Test: General anesthesia
