About this study

Official title: Randomized Controlled Trial for Intraoperative Nociception Monitoring with Medstorm, Medasense and Anspec-pro During Total Intravenous Anesthesia (TIVA) Using Propofol and Remifentanil

The randomized controlled trial study aims to validate a new pain monitor during general anesthesia by comparing the new ANSPEC-PRO monitor (non-CE marked) with already CE-marked pain monitors (Medstorm and Medasense). One hundred and eighty patients will be randomized into six groups, wherein each group has 30 patients. Patients preparing for a surgical operation under general anesthesia will be included to be monitored for pain during surgery procedure, while the standard monitoring, medication, and standard care will not be disturbed.

Pain monitoring is done with the ANSPEC-PRO, MEDASENSE, or MEDSTORM in the operation room, before and during general anesthesia: the pain monitor will record data continuously, while the following will be recorded in parallel: blood pressure, heart rate, saturation, CO2, O2 end-tidal concentrations, electromyogram, signal quality, the given amount of analgesics and hypnotics, and TOF (train-of-four).

Read the detailed description

Primary Objective: Validation of ANSPEC-PRO as pain monitor during general anesthesia.

Secondary Objectives

  • Evaluation of quality of monitoring ANSPEC-PRO compared with other pain monitors (Medasense and Medstorm);
  • Evaluation of the correlation between measurements of pain monitors (ANSPEC-PRO, Medstorm and Medasense) and the level of analgesia represented as TCI infusion of Remifentanil;
  • To determine the most suitable device for the development of a MIMO pharmacodynamic interaction model of Propofol and Remifentanil for use in closed- loop drug-delivery systems for anesthesia;
  • Evaluation of the interaction between analgesics and hypnotics measured by ANSPEC-PRO and BIS/Neurowave.
Being tested
Non-invasive analgesia monitoring with ANSPEC-PRO monitor and MEDSTORM monitor, Non-invasive analgesia monitoring with ANSPEC-PRO monitor and MEDASENSE monitor, Non-invasive analgesia monitoring with MEDSTORM monitor and MEDASENSE monitor

What participants receive

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

  • Non-invasive analgesia monitoring with ANSPEC-PRO monitor and MEDSTORM monitorDevice

    The patients are monitored with two monitors under anesthesia: one monitor attached to the left hand and one monitor to the right hand. When one monitor is connected to the patient, the other monitor will be disconnected. The first monitor is ANSPEC and the second monitor used is MEDSTORM.

  • Non-invasive analgesia monitoring with ANSPEC-PRO monitor and MEDASENSE monitorDevice

    The patients are monitored with two monitors under anesthesia: one monitor attached to the left hand and one monitor to the right hand. When one monitor is connected to the patient, the other monitor will be disconnected. The first monitor is ANSPEC-PRO and the second monitor used is MEDASENSE.

    The patients are monitored with two monitors under anesthesia: one monitor attached to the left hand and one monitor to the right hand. When one monitor is connected to the patient, the other monitor will be disconnected. The first monitor is MEDSTORM and the second monitor used is MEDASENSE.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Non-invasive analgesia monitoring with ANSPEC-PRO monitor and MEDSTORM monitor, Non-invasive analgesia monitoring with ANSPEC-PRO monitor and MEDASENSE monitor and Non-invasive analgesia monitoring with MEDSTORM monitor and MEDASENSE monitor in people with Pain Measurement, run by University Hospital, Ghent 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 4 inclusion and 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 2024. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Technical issues). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Registration of pain monitor output during surgery under general anesthesia (time frame: during general anesthesia for surgery). 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 19 Sep 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
