Patients undergoing complex free flap surgery are randomised to volatile or intravenous sedation in terms of subsequent intensive care sedation, based on the in-hospital standard of care. For study purposes, differences in management (set-up times, change of filters, etc.) will be investigated in relation to accelerated awakening and possibly improved neurocognition after the end of sedation.
