The Effect-site Concentration of Propofol
The effect-site concentration of propofol when loss of consciousness during propofol target-controlled infusing(TCI) induction of anesthesia.
Time frame: The participants will be followed for the duration of anesthesia induction, an expected average of half an hour
The Bispectral Index
The bispectral index (BIS) of each patient will be recorded at four different time points,as follows, baseline(the awake phase before epidural anesthesia),10 mins after epidural anesthesia, 20 mins after epidural anesthesia, loss of consciousness(when the participants are lost eyelash reflex during propofol TCI induction of anesthesia). BIS values varies from 0 to 100(0, no cerebral activity; 40 to 60, general anesthesia; 60 to 85, sedated; 85 to 100, awake).
Time frame: The participants will be followed for the duration of anesthesia induction, an expected average of half an hour
The Mean Blood Pressure
The mean arterial pressure of each patient will be recorded at four different time points, as follows, baseline(the awake phase before epidural anesthesia), 10 mins after epidural anesthesia, 20 mins after epidural anesthesia, loss of consciousness(when the participants are lost eyelash reflex during propofol TCI induction of anesthesia).
Time frame: The participants will be followed for the duration of anesthesia induction, an expected average of half an hour
The Heart Rate
The heart rate of each patient will be recorded at three different four points, as follows, baseline(the awake phase before epidural anesthesia), 10mins after epidural anesthesia, 20 mins after epidural anesthesia, loss of consciousness(when the participants are lost eyelash reflex during propofol TCI induction of anesthesia).
Time frame: The participants will be followed for the duration of anesthesia induction, an expected average of half an hour

The Block Level of Epidural Anesthesia
The block level 20mins after epidural anesthesia and it is verified by the loss of sensation to alcohol swab before target controlled infusion of propofol.It is the number of block segments.The block level varies from 0 to 10(0, no block level; 1 to 5, narrow block level;6 to 10, wide block level).
Time frame: 20 mins after epidural anesthesia
