Design
This clinical trial will be conducted on 66 patients who are candidates for posterior lumbar fusion surgery. The studied samples will be selected as available and randomly divided into intervention groups. The samples are divided into two equal groups of isoflurane anesthesia (33 samples) and propofol anesthesia (33 samples) using the random block allocation method.
Settings and conduct
The present study is a randomized and blinded clinical trial study. The participants are randomly divided into two equal groups and the intervention will be done on them and its consequences will be evaluated in the two groups. In the implementation of this study, weighing the surgical gases and checking the bottle suction for the amount of bleeding, the BOEZART scale for the quality of the surgical field, the vas criterion for postoperative pain, RINVR index to evaluate postoperative nausea and vomiting, MMSE scale for cognitive status, QoR-40 questionnaire for quality of recovery.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Candidate patients for posterior lumbar fusion surgery with pedicle screw fixation(only 3 to 5 levels); 18-65 years; ASA I-II ; BMI less than 35 kg/m2 Exit criteria: allergic to anesthetics; severe chronic diseases; uncontrolled blood pressure; previous spine surgery; bleeding and coagulation disorders; history of frequent nausea and vomiting; mental disorders
Intervention groups
1. Inhalation anesthesia with isoflurane 2. Total intravenous anesthesia with propofol

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
The studied samples are selected randomly. Then, the patients will be randomly assigned to two groups using the 4-way random block method. Anesthesia will be performed in the first group using the intravenous method with propofol (Pof) and in the second group using the inhalation method with isoflurane (Iso). In this method, each of the generated random sequences is recorded on a card and the cards will be placed in sealed opaque envelopes in order. In order to maintain a random sequence on the outer surface of the envelopes, numbering will be done in the same order. Finally, the lid of the letter envelopes will be glued and placed in a box. At the time of registration of participants, based on the order of entry of qualified participants into the study, one of the envelopes will be opened and the assigned group of that participant will be revealed. For this purpose, four paper cards are prepared. The letter Pof (propofol) is written on two cards and the letter Iso (isoflurane) is written on the other two cards. The cards are mixed together and removed by the researcher consecutively without placing them. This operation is repeated for the number of eligible patients and the Pof and Iso group of each patient is determined.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Single blinded
Blinding description
In this study, the main researcher who is in charge of data collection and outcome evaluation, as well as the surgeon, will not be blinded. The participants in this study and the person analyzing the data will be blinded.

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: Total intravenous anesthesia group with propofol, for these patients, a combination of propofol (100-200 µg/kg/min) and remifentanil will be used. In fact, a 50cc syringe containing propofol and remifentanil is placed in the infusion pump device and will be set to the desired time and will be renewed when the contents of the syringe are finished. The dose of muscle relaxant (atracurium) will be repeated during the operation if the patient and the surgical team need it and the anesthesia team sees fit.
Category
Treatment - Surgery

2

Description
Control group: Inhalation anesthesia group with isoflurane, a combination of isoflurane gas (mac: 1-2), nitrous oxide gas (0.05 L/kg/min) and oxygen gas (0.05 L/kg/min) will be used for these patients. The dose of narcotic drugs (fentanyl) and muscle relaxant (atracurium) will be repeated during the operation if the patient and the surgical team need it and the anesthesia team sees fit.
