This study was designated to investigate the quality of recovery after transurethral bladder resection. Because, patients undergoing transurethral bladder resection are mostly old age, and because of catheter-related bladder discomfort are common after transurethral bladder resection, study on the quality of recovery after transurethral bladder resection seems to be meaningful. In general, sevoflurane is commonly used as an anesthetic agent for general anesthesia of transurethral bladder resection. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether remimazolam is not inferior to sevoflurnane in terms of quality of recovery after transurethral bladder resection.

Sevoflurane is chosen as an anesthetic agent for general anesthesia. General anesthesia for the patients in this group will be induced with propofol (1-1.5 mg/kg), and will be maintained with sevoflurane to keep patient state index of 25-50.
Remimazolam is chosen as an anesthetic agent for general anesthesia. General anesthesia for the patients in this group will be induced with remimazolam, and will be maintained with remimazolam to keep patient state index of 25-50.

Quality of recovery -15 score at postoperative day 1
Quality of recovery-15 questionnaire, which consists 15 questions. The score ranges from 0 to 150. The higher the score, the better the quality of recovery.
Time frame: postoperative day 1
Catheter related bladder discomfort
Catheter related bladder discomfort is assessed as none, mild, moderate and severe.
Time frame: 5 minutes, and 1 hour after post-anesthesia circuit unit arrival.
