Slow Stepwise Propofol TCI Induction for Titration Anesthesia Maintenance

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if a slow stepwise propofol TCI induction with Marsh model (Ke0 0.26), allows for an accurate estimation of the effect site concentration required for maintenance of the general anesthesia, with propofol and remifentanil, in adult populations older and younger than 65 years of age.
