Brief Title: Effect of Anesthetic Agents on Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter
Official Title: Effect of Anesthetic Agents (Propofol, Sevoflurane) on Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter(ONSD) in Patients Undergoing Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Gynecology Surgery
Study ID: NCT03701529
Brief Summary: The present study is to evaluate the effect of anesthetic agents ( propofol , sevoflurane) on intracranial pressure of female patients undergoing laparoscopic-robotic surgery.
Detailed Description: Anesthetic agents (propofol and sevoflurane)have different effect on intracranial pressure. Sevoflurane when used over 0.5 minimum alveolar concentration, dilates intracranial vasculature and increases intracranial pressure. On the other hand, propofol decreases intracranial blood pressure and intracranial pressure is maintained or decreases. Optic nerve sheath diameter is a feasible diagnostic tool in evaluating intracranial pressure. Female patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy or myomectomy are evaluated.
