Overview

Aim of this trial is to define if Post-Operative Cognitive Dysfunction, detected analyzing changes between pre-operative and post-operative Neurocognitive Test, relate to concentration of effector's site concentration of propofol and remifentanil TCI and to the common intraoperative neuromonitoring values.

Description

Post-Operative Cognitive Dysfunction has not been yet investigated after general anaesthesia with Targeted-Controlled-Infusion (TCI) and Laryngeal-Mask-Airway (LMA), daily used in the investigator's Hospital to anesthetize women undergoing breast surgery. Aim of this trial is to define if neurocognitive tests (Montreal Cognitive Assessment, Trail Making Test A and B, Digit Span Test) before and after surgery relate to concentrations at effector's site (Ec) of propofol and remifentanil TCI and the values of Bispectral Index and Entropy monitoring and Surgical Plethysmographic Index (SPI).

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • General Anaesthesia delivered with Propofol and Remifentanil with Targeted Controlled Infusion
  • Use of Laryngeal Mask airway

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Neurological pathologies
  • Haemodynamical instability during surgery
