Comparison of Quality of Recovery Between Remimazolam and Propofol Anesthesia in Patients Undergoing Arthroscopic Meniscectomy

This study aims to compare quality of recovery after surgery and anesthesia between patients undergoing arthroscopic meniscectomy under general anesthesia with either propofol or remimazolam based total intravenous anesthesia. This study is a randomized trial with a 50% probability of being assigned to either group. Randomization will be done by an anesthesiologist not involved in anesthesia or postoperative outcome assessment. Patients and the investigator in charge of postoperative outcomes assessment will be blinded to group allocation.
