Name Time Method Main Objective: To evaluate, during the maintenance period of general anaesthesia at comparable depths, the quantity of propofol administered with Xenon in inspiratory concentrations of 50% (45%-55%) and 70% (65%-75%), delivered by a Felix Dual® ventilator, versus total i.v. anaesthesia, in ASA III patients presenting increased risk of perioperative cardiac complications, and undergoing laparotomy, laparoscopy or orthopaedic surgery;Secondary Objective: To assess recovery parameters<br>To collect safety data, including haemodynamic, respiratory and laboratory parameters<br>;Primary end point(s): Quantity of propofol (mg) administered during the anaesthesia maintenance adjusted to the patient body surface area and the anaesthesia maintenance duration
