What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • BIS Complete Monitoring SystemDevice

    The BIS™ EEG complete monitoring system is intended for use under the direct supervision of a licensed healthcare practitioner or by personnel trained in its proper use. The system and its associated parameters are intended for use on adult patients within a hospital or medical facility, providing patient care to monitor the state of the brain by data acquisition of EEG signals.

Study groups in NCT04602546
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Sevoflurane aloneActive comparatorSevoflurane will be administered in steps to achieve a loss of consciousness via a tight-face mask by increasing the end-tidal concentration of Sevoflurane (ETSEVO). Targeted concentration for ETSEVO are 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 3, 4, 5% or higher until MOAA/S scales at values less than 2 is reached. The equilibration time for each targeted concentration will be approximately 12 minutes to maintain a constant ETSEVO. The BIS™ value, MOAA/S score and picture recall test will be assessed when the patient is awake and at the different ETSEVO concentrations. ETSEVO is decreased by the same steps until consciousness is regained.
Receives: Device: BIS Complete Monitoring System
Sevoflurane with Remifentanil GroupActive comparatorTwo (2) minutes before starting sevoflurane, to attain an effect-site targeted concentration of remifentanil of 4 ng/ml, an initial IV bolus of remifentanil will be given followed by the start of an infusion. Approximately within 7 minutes, the infusion rate of remifentanil may be adjusted to maintain the effect-site concentration of remifentanil of 4 ng/ml. Sevoflurane will be administered via a tight-face mask in steps to achieve a loss of consciousness by increasing the end-tidal concentration of Sevoflurane (ETSEVO). Targeted concentration for ETSEVO are 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 3, 4, 5% or higher until an MOAA/S score of less than 2 is reached. ETSEVO is decreased by the same steps until consciousness is regained.
Receives: Device: BIS Complete Monitoring System
Sevoflurane with Fentanyl GroupActive comparatorTwo (2) minutes before starting sevoflurane, to attain an effect-site targeted concentration of fentanyl of 2 ng/mL, an initial IV bolus of fentanyl will be given followed by the start of an infusion. Approximately within 10 minutes, the infusion rate of fentanyl may be adjusted to maintain the effect-site concentration of fentanyl of 2 ng/ml. Sevoflurane will be administered via a tight-face mask in steps to achieve a loss of consciousness by increasing the end-tidal concentration of Sevoflurane (ETSEVO). Targeted concentration for ETSEVO are 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 3, 4, 5% or higher until an MOAA/S score of equal to or less than 2 is reached. ETSEVO is decreased by the same steps until consciousness is regained.
Receives: Device: BIS Complete Monitoring System
Desflurane GroupActive comparatorDue to desflurane being a volatile agent and not well tolerated as an induction agent, an initial IV bolus of 1% propofol provided at 2mg/kg, with supplemental boluses given at the investigators discretion in order to achieve laryngeal mask (LMA) insertion, will be administered 15-20 minutes prior to desflurane. Once correct LMA placement has been confirmed, there will be an equilibrium time of approximately 15-20 minutes to allow the effect site concentration of propofol to reach a level consistent with a pharmacodynamic effect of consciousness as measured by a MOAA/S score of 2 or 3. Desflurane will then be administered via a tight-face mask at the targeted end-tidal concentration (ETDES) of 2, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10 %, or higher until an MOAA/S score of less than 2 is reached. The BIS™ value will be correlated with desflurane ETDES concentration. ETDES is decreased by the same steps until consciousness is regained.
Receives: Device: BIS Complete Monitoring System
Isoflurane GroupActive comparatorDue to isoflurane being a volatile agent and not well tolerated as an induction agent, an initial IV bolus of 1% propofol provided at 2mg/kg, with supplemental boluses given at the investigators discretion in order to achieve LMA insertion, will be administered 15-20 minutes prior to isoflurane.Isoflurane will be administered via a tight-face mask in steps to achieve a loss of consciousness (MOAA/S of 0,1) by increasing the end-tidal concentration of Isoflurane (ETISO). Targeted concentration for ETISO are 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5% or higher until MOAA/S scales at values less than 2 is reached. The BIS™ value will be correlated with desflurane ETISO concentration. ETISO is decreased by the same steps until consciousness is regained.

What is being measured

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

  1. BIS 50

    To determine BIS50, the BIS™ value (index score on a scale of 0-100 (0 being dead and 100 being fully awake/responsive) on the BIS™ monitor) at which 50% of patients will be unresponsive at a given drug concentration. Responsiveness is measured using the Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness and Sedation (MOAAS) a 0-5 scale where 0 represents no response to deep stimulus and 5 represents fully awake).

    Measured: duration of anesthesia administration, up to 2 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. BIS 95

    To determine BIS95, the BIS™ value (index score on a scale of 0-100 (0 being dead and 100 being fully awake/responsive) on the BIS™ monitor) at which 95% of patients will be unresponsive at a given drug concentration. Responsiveness is measured using the Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness and Sedation (MOAAS) a 0-5 scale where 0 represents no response to deep stimulus and 5 represents fully awake).

    Measured: duration of anesthesia administration

  2. Prediction Probability (PK)

    To determine if the value on the BIS™ monitor (index score on a scale of 0-100 (0 being dead and 100 being fully awake/responsive) on the BIS™ monitor) can predict the subject's responsiveness at a given drug concentration. Responsiveness is measured using the Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness and Sedation (MOAAS) a 0-5 scale where 0 represents no response to deep stimulus and 5 represents fully awake).

    Measured: duration of anesthesia administration, up to 2 hours
