Comparison of the Genotoxicity of Desflurane and Propofol

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
DNA Damage
Anesthesia
Interventions
Drug: Anesthetics, General Desflurane Maintenance
Drug: Anesthetics, General Propofol Maintenance
Registration Number
NCT05185167
Lead Sponsor
Muğla Sıtkı Koçman University
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the anesthetics propofol and desflurane can damage DNA according to comet essay in patients submitted to lumbar disc surgery.

Detailed Description

It is expected that DNA damage information provide the possible genotoxic effects of inhalational and intravenous anesthetics and contribute to the establishment of strategies aimed at reducing the risks to exposed patients.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Intensity of the DNA tail detected by using Comet Assay IV Version 4.3.2 for Basler FireWirepostoperative 5th day

The blood samples that evaluate with comet analysis aim to detect the intensity of the DNA tail, and the tail greater, the greater the damage.

Head length of DNA detected by using Comet Assay IV Version 4.3.2 for Basler FireWirepostoperative 5th day

The blood samples that evaluate with comet analysis aim to detect the head length of DNA, the head greater, the smaller the damage.

Tail length of DNA detected by using Comet Assay IV Version 4.3.2 for Basler FireWirepostoperative 5th day

The blood samples that evaluate with comet analysis aim to detect the tail length of DNA, the head greater, the greater the damage.
