The effects of propofol and midazolam as an intravenous anesthetic were compared in 40 ASA I-II patients undergoing gynecological surgery during total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA). They were divided into propofol group (P n = 20) and midazolam group (M n = 20) randomly. The anesthesia was designed for each group respectively. Here, we discuss the experimental method and the results, which indicate that propofol is not only an effective anesthetic but also has more rapid and head-clear recovery properties than midazolam.
