Researchers are investigating how different anesthesia methods affect recovery after long spinal surgeries lasting more than three hours. The study compares total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) alone with TIVA combined with low doses of either sevoflurane or desflurane inhaled anesthetics. The goal is to understand how these anesthesia approaches influence recovery times, including waking up, removing breathing tubes, agitation, nausea, vomiting, and discharge from recovery units. The study groups include three anesthesia methods: TIVA alone using a combination of propofol and remifentanil guided by BIS monitoring and target-controlled infusion, TIVA combined with 0.5 MAC sevoflurane, and TIVA combined with 0.5 MAC desflurane. Each participant receives one of these methods during their elective spinal surgery, all performed in a neurosurgery operating room. Participants will be monitored for recovery patterns such as time to eye opening after anesthesia, extubation time, agitation scores, incidence of nausea and vomiting, and time to discharge from the post-anesthesia care unit. These measures will be recorded within the first postoperative hour and beyond. The study follows participants through surgery and recovery to compare these outcomes across the anesthesia methods.
