Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Propofol  Propofol infusion will be used at dose of 4 to 6 ml/kg to maintain anaesthesia through out the cardiopulmonary bypass period in the TIVA group titrated to BIS of less than 60. It is administered continuously during the entire cardiopulmonary bypass period. 
Comparator Agent  Sevoflurane  Use of sevoflurane at 1.6 to 2% via vaporizer mounted on the bypass machine in inhalational group for maintenance of anaesthesia during entire period of cardiopulmonary bypass titrated to BIS less than 60.there is no specific time point of administration.it is continuously administered during the entire cardiopulmonary bypass period using a vaporizer

Brief Summary   It will be a prospective randomized double blinded interventional study. After approval from the IEC and getting informed consent 80 consecutive patients undergoing CABG or Aortic valve replacement for Aortic stenosis will be randomly allocated to receive either inhalation anaesthesia or Total intravenous anaesthesia. Computer generated random table will be used to allocate subjects to one of the study groups. Sequentially numbered sealed opaque envelopes will contain the treatment code, to be opened in the morning of surgery. Patients and the principal investigator will be unaware of group assignment. All the statistical analyses will be performed by the biostatistician not involved in treatment allocation.
Standard anaesthesia induction and intubation will be done using fentanyl 5-10 mcg/kg, midazolam 0.05-0.1 mg/kg, propofol sleep dose upto 2mg/kg and pancuronium 0.1mg/kg.Fentanyl infusion will be started at 2mcg/kg/hr. Total upto 20 mcg/kg fentanyl will be given prior to sternotomy. Baseline demographics of all the patients including age, sex, height,weight, BMI ,comorbidities and type of surgery will be noted .Baseline Montreal cognitive assessment score will be assessed the day before surgery. All standard ASA monitoring will be done. Additionally Bispectral index monitoring will be done to ensure adequate depth of anaesthesia and maintained at < 60. Near-infrared spectroscopy to record cerebral oximetry and TEE for regular cardiac evaluation and to look for atheroma and its grade will be used. Patients in the Total intravenous anaesthesia group will receive propofol titrated to Bispectral index for maintenance along with fentanyl infusion during cardiopulmonary bypass while the patients in the Inhalational group will receive sevoflurane titrated to Bispectral index along with fentanyl infusion for maintenance on CPB. The depth of anaesthesia will be monitored and maintained in both the groups using Bispectral index monitor. All patients will be screened for presence of atheromatous plaque in the aorta and the Katz grading will be noted.. The MAP will be maintained above 60mm Hg till institution of CPB .PaCO2 will be maintained at 35-45 mmHg. CPB will be instituted and maintained as per standard protocol. NIRS values will be recorded at various time intervals: baseline, intubation, after going on CPB, after cross-clamping, at lowest temperature, during warming at 36°C, post-bypass and after skin closure. MAP on CPB will be maintained more than 50 mmHg and the haematocrit more than 21%.Other parameters recorded will be duration of CPB, cross clamp time and intraoperative glucose levels. In the ICU time to extubation readiness will be noted. Dexmedetomidine infusion for sedation at 0.1 -0.3 mcg/kg /hr will be started for all patients on arrival to the ICU and continued for 24 hrs with fentanyl infusion at 1mcg/kg/hr. All patients will receive 6th hourly IV paracetamol for post-operative analgesia. Postoperative delirium(time frame: 2 days after surgery) detection will be managed with Confusion Assessment Method for the ICU (CAM-ICU) on POD1 and 2.Delerium will be managed with quetiapine or haloperidol as per intensivist order. Early postoperative cognitive dysfunction (Time Frame: 7 days after surgery )we will use Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) to detect cognitive dysfunction
