A clinical trial to study the effect of two methods of anesthesia, total intravenous anesthesia and inhalational anesthesia on neuroinflammation

Phase 4
Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Medical and Surgical,
Registration Number
CTRI/2023/10/058436
Lead Sponsor
Sree Chitra Thirunal Institute of Medical Sciences and Technology
Brief Summary

This study intends to evaluate which anaesthetic technique, propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia or sevoflurane-based inhalational anesthesia has a better neuronal and systemic anti-inflammatory profile. Glioma is a disease state with a high risk of morbidity and mortality. Thus, identifying the ideal anaesthetic agent will provide a better neurophysiological profile by suppressing neuronal and systemic inflammation in the perioperative period. A prospective randomized controlled  trial will be done to evaluate the inflammatory markers in patients undergoing craniotomy for supratentorial glioma under propofol-based intravenous anaesthesia and sevoflurane-based inhalational anesthesia
