It is a prospective, randomized, open-label study. Sixty cardiac surgery patients will receive either propofol or sevoflurane anaesthesia. Three-minute VOT will be performed at the following time points: 30 minutes after anaesthesia induction, directly after sternotomy, 20 and 40 minutes after aortic cross-clamping, 20 minutes after aortic cross-clamp removal, and 45 minutes after weaning of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
