Summary

It has been shown that the use of volatile anaesthetics, that are usually used to perform a general anesthesia, have cardioprotective properties. This has been shown in animal studies and in patients that underwent cardiac surgery. The aim of our study is to examine if Sevoflurane, a volatile anaesthetic, has this properties in patients undergoing lung surgery.

Conditions

  • High Sensitive Troponin T Release

Interventions

DRUG

Sevoflurane

Anaesthesia is induced (1-2 mg/kg) and maintained (5-7 mg/kg/h) with propofol and remifentanil (1 µg/kg and 0,2-0,4 µg/kg/min). After induction of anesthesia the propofol infusion is stopped and patients receive 1 MAC Sevoflurane over 30 min. Then the propofol infusion is restarted and Sevoflurane is washed out.

DRUG

TIVA

Anaesthesia is induced (1-2 mg/kg) and maintained (5-7 mg/kg/h) with propofol and remifentanil (1 µg/kg and 0,2-0,4 µg/kg/min).
