Primary outcomePrimary: Regional Cerebral Oxygen Satuation (rSO2) — 77.4; 72.5; 76; 70 percentage of rSO2 (%)
Summary
The investigators hypothesized that both propofol and desflurane would decrease the regional oxygen saturation (rSO2) but propofol is likely to reduce rSO2 more than sevoflurane when patients are raised to the sitting position.
