Benefits of Total Intravenous Anesthesia Compared With Inhaled Anesthesia in Cardiovascular Surgery
Benefits of Total Intravenous Anesthesia Compared With Inhaled Anesthesia in Cardiovascular Surgery
This study compares the difference in proinflammatory markers Interleukin 6 (IL-6), Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) and cortisol in patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery to asses if there is a benefit of using intravenous total anesthesia (TIVA) over inhaled anesthesia for this procedures.
IL-6, TNFα and cortisol will be measure at the beginning of the cardiovascular surgery and 20 minutes after the cardiovascular bypass ends to calculate the difference between them and compare if there is any statistical difference between the proinflammatory markers with the two anesthesia techniques.
