The differences in operation time, postoperative recovery time (PRT), language expression time (LET), anesthetic dosage (AD), catheter extubation time (CET), respiratory circulation indicators (mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), SaO2 , and PaO2 ), postoperative VRS score, pulmonary function (forced vital capacity (FVC)), forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)/FVC and forced expiratory flow (FEF 25%~75%), serum inflammatory factors (IL-6, IL-8, and TNF- α ), Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire (SPMSQ) score, and the incidence of respiratory system events were analyzed...
