Supratentorial Tumor
Conditions
Brief summary
Optional brain relaxation improves the surgeon's operating conditions and is likely to minimize the degree of retraction injury ,with the potential for providing patients with a better outcome. The choice of anesthetic drugs can affect intraoperative brain relaxation. Propofol suppresses brain metabolism, reduces cerebral blood flow, and provides satisfactory brain relaxation. Desflurane is often criticized in neurosurgery due to its cerebral vasodilation and potential to increase intracranial pressure, however, it has been found to have a little clinical significance. This study intends to compare the effects of desflurane with propofol on brain relaxation in patients with supratentorial tumors under mild hyperventilation, and to provide new clinical evidence for the use of desflurane in neurosurgical anesthesia.
Detailed description
To compare the effect of desflurane versus propofol combined with remifentanil anesthesia on brain relaxation in patients undergoing supratentorial tumor surgery with mild hyperventilation, and compare the emergence time and common complications during recovery.
Interventions
After induction, anesthesia will be maintained with 0.8-1.3 MAC desflurane and 0.05-0.2 μg/kg/min remifentanil.
After induction, anesthesia will be maintained with 6-8 mg/kg/h propofol and 0.05- 0.2 μg/kg/min remifentanil

Design outcomes
Primary
