Brief Summary

Ketamine and Propofol admixture is associated with improved hemodynamics when used as an induction agent. Postoperative cognitive dysfunction is a common adverse event after general anesthesia which represents a decline in a variey of neuropsychological domains including memory, executive functioning and speed of thought processing. Since, Ketamine has dissociativeproperties and Ketofol is being increasingly used for its hemodynamic stability profile, we decide to compare the incidence of  POCD with Ketamine(0.75mg/kg) and Propofol(1.25mg/kg) combination when compared to Propofol(2mg/kg) alone for induction of general anesthesia.

A battery of neuropsychological tests will be used to assess POCD which can be debilitating in day care surgeries.

Neuropsychological tests are Mini mental state examination, California verbal learning test, Digit span test, Stroop card word and colour test.
