In studies, the effects of drugs used for anesthesia and analgesia on QT distance were evaluated in isolation. However, drugs are administered in combination with each other during anesthesia induction. Therefore, drugs interact in terms of positive and undesirable effects. In addition, most of the studies examining anesthesia and QT distance have been conducted in non-cardiac surgery. The target group in this study is the adult patient group who will undergo cardiac surgery. The primary aim of our study is to investigate the effect of two different types of anesthesia induction techniques on QT distance in patients undergoing open-heart surgery. QT evaluation will be performed after endotracheal intubation after anesthesia induction.

QT distance- baseline- pre-induction of anesthesia
Timeframe: Pre-induction of anesthesia, an average of 5 minutes
QT distance- post-induction of anesthesia
Timeframe: After the completion of anesthesia induction suitable for the groups and the bispectral index value falls below the BIS value of 40, an average of 5 minutes
QT distance- after intubation
Timeframe: 2 minutes after the patients are intubated
