Brief Summary: Aim of this trial is to define if Post-Operative Cognitive Dysfunction and Delirium, detected analyzing changes between pre-operative and post-operative Neurocognitive Test, relate to concentration of effector's site concentration of propofol and remifentanil TCI and to the common intraoperative neuromonitoring values.
Detailed Description: Post-Operative Cognitive Dysfunction and Emergence Delirium has not been yet investigated after general anaesthesia with Targeted-Controlled-Infusion (TCI), daily used in the investigator's Hospital to anesthetize patients undergoing spinal surgery. Aim of this trial is to define if neurocognitive tests (Pfeiffer test, Montreal Cognitive Assessment, Trail Making Test A and B, Digit Span Test, Confusion Assessment Method) before and after surgery relate to concentrations at effector's site (Ec) of propofol and remifentanil TCI, the values of Bispectral Index, blood pressure values and usage of drugs to increase arterial blood pressure.
