About this trial

This study investigated the effect of desflurane and propofol anesthesia on visual acuity in patients in prone position for spinal surgery. Many trials have investigated the effects of different anesthetic agents on intraocular pressure, propofol may reduce intraocular pressure more than other intravenous anesthetics.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Glasgow Coma scale 15

American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status Classification System I-III

spinal surgery in duration less than 3 hours

sinus rhythm

Disqualifiers

postoperative artificial ventilation

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Desflurane Group

    Procedure/Surgery

    General anesthesia will be held using desflurane in end- tidal concentration according to target value of entropy levels (between 40 and 60).

  • Propofol Group

    Procedure/Surgery

    General anesthesia will be held using Schnider effect model for propofol (target control anesthesia). Titration will be done according to target value of entropy levels (between 40 and 60).
