Overview
The investigators will conduct a 13,000-patient randomized multi-center trial to determine (i) which general anesthesia technique yields superior patient recovery experiences in any of three surgical categories ((a) major inpatient surgery, (b) minor inpatient surgery, (c) outpatient surgery) and (ii) whether TIVA confers no more than a small (0.2 %) increased risk of intraoperative awareness than INVA in patients undergoing both outpatient and inpatient surgeries
Interventions
- Other Anesthetic technique Propofol TIVA
Propofol TIVA no inhaled agent - Other Anesthetic technique inhaled agent
Must administer inhaled agent.
Primary outcome measures
- Patient Reported Quality of Recovery-15 (QOR15) score on postoperative day 1 after major inpatient surgery [Time frame: Postoperative day 1]
- Patient Reported Quality of Recovery-15 (QOR15) score on postoperative day 1 after minor inpatient surgery [Time frame: Postoperative day 1]
- Patient Reported Quality of Recovery-15 (QOR15) score on postoperative day 1 after outpatient surgery [Time frame: Postoperative day 1]
- Incidence of definite intraoperative awareness with recall [Time frame: Postoperative day 30]

Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
Each patient must meet all of the following criteria:
- Aged 18 years or older
- Undergoing elective non-cardiac surgery expected to last ≥ 60 min requiring general anesthesia with a tracheal tube or laryngeal mask airway (or similar supra-glottic device)
Exclusion criteria
Patients will not be enrolled if any of the following criteria are met:
- Inability to provide informed consent in English (at all study sites) or Spanish (at sites where Spanish consent is provided as an option)

- Surgical procedure requiring general, regional, neuraxial anesthesia administered by an anesthesia clinician (anesthesiologist, CRNA, anesthesiology assistant) occurring within 30 days prior to or planned to occur within 30 days after surgery date
- Contraindication to propofol TIVA or INVA (for example, documented allergy to propofol, history of severe postoperative nausea or vomiting, concern for or history of malignant hyperthermia) based on self-report
- Surgical procedures requiring a specific general anesthesia technique (for example, TIVA required for neuromonitoring).
- Locally approved, written protocol mandating a particular anesthetic technique
- History of possible or definite intraoperative awareness during general anesthesia based on patient self-report
