Conditions

undergoing major abdominal surgery for various indications

Interventions

Ciprofol:Anaesthetic induction: Administer 0.3–0.5 mg/kg of cyclobutolol intravenously
assess the Modified Observer Alertness/Sedation Score (MOAA/S) and the eyelash reflex every 30 seconds following administration. When the MOAA/S is <=1 (i.e. no response to mild stimulation or shaking
Propofol:Anaesthetic induction: Administer propofol 1.5–2.5 mg/kg intravenously
assess the Modified Observer Alertness/Sedation Score (MOAA/S) and eyelash reflex every 30 seconds following administration. When the MOAA/S score is <=1 (i.e. no response to mild stimulation or shaki
