The Effect of Total Intravenous Anesthesia and Volatile Anesthesia on Shedding of the Endothelial Glycocalyx in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic or Robotic Assisted Gastrectomy

Anesthesia was induced with TCI of propofol (Ce of 4.0-4.5 μg/ml) and remifentanil (Ce of 4.0 ng/ml). Anesthesia was maintained with TCI of propofol and remifentanil. Anesthesia depth was adjusted to maintain a PSI of 25-50.

Anesthesia was induced with an intravenous bolus of propofol 1.5-2 mg/kg and TCI of remifentanil (effect-site concentration \[Ce\] of 4.0 ng/ml). Anesthesia was maintained with sevoflurane (0.8-1 age-adjusted minimum alveolar concentration) and TCI of remifentanil
