Hemodynamics During Induction of General Anesthesia With Medium or Low Remifentanil Doses.

Summary

In this trial the investigators want to examine if there is any difference in hemodynamic stability during induction when comparing two low and a medium remifentanil dose and keeping propofol induction dose at about 2.0 mg/kg.
