Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Elderly patients have high mortality and postoperative complications rate after surgery, especially postoperative cardiac complications. A meta-analysis revealed haemodynamic intraoperative events significantly increased the risk of postoperative cardiac complications.To limit the risk, optimize the intraoperative management of circulation is essential. Anesthetic drug may effect on the haemodynamic intraoperative, reduction of postoperative complications should aimed at choosing the optimal anesthetic drug with minimal effect on haemodynamic.So this study is to explore the comparative efficacy and safety of anesthetic drug (etomidate or propofol) in elderly patients
