Arms Assigned Interventions
1: Active Comparator
ventilation with air and oxygen
Drug: air
60% air combined with 40% oxygen for ventilation
2: Experimental
ventilation with nitrous oxide and oxygen
Drug: Nitrous oxide
60% nitrous oxide combined with 40% oxygen for ventilation

Detailed Description:

Nitrous oxide is a widely used anesthetic agent. The mechanism of its central action is not completely understood and its importance is questioned.

Total intravenous anesthesia can be driven by a computer using bispectral index as a controller. Such a system matches anesthetic agent requirements to the needs of each individuum and thus allows an unbiased evaluation of the influence of nitrous oxide. Two groups of patients are compared: one ventilated with a oxygen-air mixture and one with oxygen-nitrous oxide mixture. Anesthesia is provided by a "dual-loop" which adapts propofol and remifentanil target concentrations to maintain a bispectral index between 40 and 60 in both groups.
