Trial summary

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the influence of a standardized noxious stimulus on the ANI, SPI and hemodynamic parameters during standard propofol and sufentanil TCI and to see if the ANI and SPI are predictive of a hemodynamic reaction. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Usefulness and Predictive Capacity of ANI and SPI of the Hemodynamic Response to Standardized Stimuli During Neuro- and Urologic Surgery Under Standard Target Controlled Infusion of Propofol and Sufentanil.

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the influence of a standardized noxious stimulus on the ANI, SPI and hemodynamic parameters during standard propofol and sufentanil TCI and to see if the ANI and SPI are predictive of a hemodynamic reaction.

In addition the investigators compare the performance of ANI and SPI against one another as well as investigate if ANI or SPI can be used to find the ideal CeSUF for a given patient.

Read the detailed description

During general anesthesia hypnosis can be monitored routinely using EEG derivates like Bispectral index (BIS), entropy,.… However, monitoring analgesia or more precisely the nociceptive-antinociceptive (analgetic) balance during anesthesia proved more difficult. Clinical signs such as heart rate (tachycardia) or blood pressure (hypertension) are usually observed and used to assess nociception and a patient's autonomic unbalance. During general anesthesia administration of opioids like sufentanil and remifentanil decrease the ANS reactivity to noxious stimulation. Recently two variables based on standard anesthesia monitor equipment have been introduced into clinical practice: the Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI), derived from analysis of the small beat-to-beat oscillations of the heart rate during respiration, the heart rate variability (HRV), and the Surgical Pleth Index (SPI), calculated from the plethysmographic amplitude and heart beat interval.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The influence of a standardized noxious stimulus on pain measurement by means of analgesia nociception index (numerical score 0-100)

    dimensionless number

    Measured: 30 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Predictive capacity of ANI and SPI of hemodynamic reactivity by means of analgesia nociception index (numerical score 0-100) or by SPI (numerical index 100-0)

    Comparing the ANI and SPI before and during possible hemodynamic reactivity

    Measured: 30 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Metrodoloris Medical System and Aisys® care station, Acertys in people with Pain and Tachycardia, run by Universitair Ziekenhuis Brussel at 1 site in Belgium.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The influence of a standardized noxious stimulus on pain measurement by means of analgesia nociception index (numerical score 0-100) (time frame: 30 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Aug 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
