Anesthesia, Anesthesia Awareness, Anesthesia Complication, Anesthesia Morbidity, Pain, Postoperative, Quality of Life, Surgery, Surgery-Complications
Conditions
Brief summary
The investigators will conduct a 13,000-patient randomized multi-center trial to determine (i) which general anesthesia technique yields superior patient recovery experiences in any of three surgical categories ((a) major inpatient surgery, (b) minor inpatient surgery, (c) outpatient surgery) and (ii) whether TIVA confers no more than a small (0.2 %) increased risk of intraoperative awareness than INVA in patients undergoing both outpatient and inpatient surgeries
Interventions
Propofol TIVA no inhaled agent
Must administer inhaled agent.

| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Patient Reported Quality of Recovery-15 (QOR15) score on postoperative day 1 after major inpatient surgery | Postoperative day 1 | The QOR15 instrument measures quality of recovery with a score of 0 - 150 points where the higher the score the better quality of recovery. |

| Incidence of definite intraoperative awareness with recall | Postoperative day 30 | The modified Brice questionnaire is used to screen for intraoperative awareness. A positive screen (a patient who reports remembering anything between going to sleep for their surgical procedure and waking up after) on the modified Brice questionnaire is followed by a structured interview. A panel of expert adjudicators determines whether or not this was definite intraoperative awareness. |
