Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
According to different rates of remifentanil administration, R1, R2 and R3 group are administered different dose rate of remifentanil (0.05micro-g/kg/min and 0.08micro-g/kg/min). Anesthesia induction of CSEA was done 5min before remifentanil administration. Intravenous remifentanil was administrated before operation and stopped after laser photocoagulation. Dose administered and logged by anaesthetist.
