Monitoring the effects of automated gas control of sevoflurane versus target-guided propofol infusion on hemodynamics of liver patients during liver resection. A randomized controlled trial.

Background And Aims: Cirrhotic patients are prone to hypotension during anesthesia. The primary aim of the study was to compare the effects of automated gas control (AGC) of sevoflurane and target-controlled infusion (TCI) of propofol on systemic and cardiac hemodynamics in hepatitis C cirrhotic patients undergoing surgery. The secondary aim was to compare the recovery, complications, and costs between the two groups.
