Primary Study Variable: Amount of Gas Vaporized Anesthetic Per Minute Anesthesia Primary · Intraoperative (minimum of 2 hours of anesthesia)

The purpose of this study is to test whether or not the use of a low volume ventilator in an anesthesia machine reduces anesthetic costs significantly as compared to other high volume machines. The study will compare the FLOW-i anesthesia machine to a GE anesthesia machine during routine elective general surgery in patients with ASA ratings of 1-2 under general anesthesia receiving standard care.

Time to Reach Aldrete > 8 Secondary · Up to 24 hours

Time it took for patient to be safely discharged from the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU). The Aldrete Score evaluates recovery after anesthesia and patient readiness to be discharged from PACU. The patient is assessed for consciousness, mobility, breathing, circulation, and color. The evaluation occurs immediately after surgery and then every (1) hour before the patient is deemed ready for discharge.

Sponsor's own description

The purpose of this study is to test whether or not the use of a low volume ventilator in an anesthesia machine reduces anesthetic costs significantly as compared to other high volume machines. The study will compare the a low-flow anesthesia machine to a traditional anesthesia machine during routine elective general surgery in patients with ASA ratings of 1-2 under general anesthesia receiving standard care.
