Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Inhalational agent   Patient will be induced with Injection Thiopentone (6mg/kg) and Injection Atracurium (0.5mg/kg) after 3 minutes, appropriate size Endotracheal tube will be secured and fixed after confirming by the appearance of Capnography (ETCO2) and also by 5 point auscultation, patient will be maintained with 3 liters of oxygen, 3 liters of Air and Sevoflurane 1.5% , After 15 minutes low flow anesthesia will be initiated, Inj. Atracurium (0.05mg/kg) as when needed, last dose will be 30mins before dressing. The Inhalational agent Sevoflurane will be discontinued prior to skin closure and after dressing Patient will be extubated by administration of reversal agent Inj. Neostigmine 60mcg/kg and Inj. Glycopyrolate 1/5 dose of Neostigmine. 
Intervention  Total Intravenous Anesthesia (TIVA)  Patients will be induced with Inj. Propofol (2mg/kg) Inj.
