Summary

Patients 1 to 8 years of age, American Society of Anesthesiologist score 1 and 2, planned for elective, one day surgery: inguinal hernia repair, hydrocele surgery, testis retention surgery, varicocele and phimosis surgery, and parents or legal guardians will be asked to sign written informed consent for participation in the study. Exclusion criteria will be: confirmed propofol allergies, mitochondrial disease, disease of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, neurological disorders, treated psychiatric comorbidities, hypertension.

All participants will be randomly assigned to two groups: one in which manually controlled propofol infusion will be used (MC group) and the other with target controlled infusion (TC group). After anesthesia induction depth of anesthesia during surgery will be measured using bispectral index (BIS), continuously. As a part of routine monitoring noninvasive blood pressure monitoring will be measured, and recorded in three time points, as well as heart rate. Time will be measured from the moment when propofol infusion was stopped till tracheal extubating.

Conditions

  • Propofol Anesthesia in Children

Interventions

DRUG

Propofol infusion via manually controlled pump.

Patients will receive propofol bolus 2.5-3 mg/kg, for anesthesia induction and anesthesia maintenance was continued according to the Mc Farlan scheme, meaning continuous propofol infusion is used, with gradual reduction of the infusion speed in timely manner, depending on the duration of surgery: 15mg/kg/h...13mg/kg/h...11mg/kg/h...9mg/kg/h...6mg/kg/h.

DRUG

Propofol infusion via target controlled pump.

Pedfusor model was used for delivering target controlled plasma concentration, with target concentration for anesthesia induction of 4 mcg/kg body weight and then 3 mcg/kg.
