Propofol or Sevoflurane Anesthesia in Egyptian Patients

Summary

The proposed research in this application will investigate postoperative cognitive function, pain index, inflammatory response, and oxidative stress effects of propofol versus sevoflurane anesthetic drugs in patients undergoing elective, non-cardiac abdominal operations under general anesthesia to investigate which of them will significantly maintain better cognitive function, decrease the pain index, inflammatory reaction, and oxidative stress, improve outcome, shorten the postoperative recovery time and reduce length of hospital stay, and consequently the cost of hospital stay.
