    Area of Science:

    • Anesthesiology
    • Surgical Care

    Background:

    • Intravenous anesthesia offers an alternative to inhalation anesthesia.
    • Minimizing environmental contamination during anesthesia is a growing concern.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the safety and applicability of total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) using etomidate and fentanyl.
    • To assess the impact of TIVA on operating room air quality.

    Main Methods:

    • A total intravenous anesthesia technique was administered to 463 patients.
    • Etomidate was used for induction of sleep, and fentanyl was administered for analgesia.
    • The technique was applied to both spontaneously breathing and mechanically ventilated patients.

    Main Results:

    • The total intravenous anesthesia technique was successfully applied in 463 patients.

  • The technique proved to be easily applicable.
  • No major complications were observed in either spontaneously breathing or ventilated patients.
  • The method effectively prevented pollution of the operating room air.

    • Conclusions:

    • Total intravenous anesthesia with etomidate and fentanyl is a safe and easily applicable technique.
    • This anesthesia method is suitable for a wide range of patients, including those who are spontaneously breathing or ventilated.
    • The technique contributes to a safer operating room environment by preventing air pollution.
