About this study
Official title: Observational Analysis of the Transition From Inhalational Anesthesia to Total Intravenous Anesthesia Guided by Bispectral Index and the Eleveld Model in Pediatric Patients
his prospective, observational, exploratory, and multicenter study aims to describe the evolution of propofol effect-site concentration administered via target-controlled infusion (TCI) based on the Eleveld model-with adjustments for opioid co-administration-guided by the bispectral index (BIS) during the transition from inhalational anesthesia with sevoflurane to total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) in pediatric patients.The study population will include 50 pediatric patients, aged 2 to 12 years, scheduled for elective low- or medium-complexity surgeries. Induction will be performed with sevoflurane, followed by intravenous access placement and transition to TIVA using propofol and remifentanil via TCI. As part of the neuromonitoring, the bispectral index, spectral edge frequency (SEF), and median frequency (MF) will be recorded. Additionally, hemodynamic parameters will be recorded on a minute-by-minute basis.The primary objective is to describe BIS-guided adjustments of propofol during the anesthetic transition. Secondary objectives include describing interindividual variability in propofol titration, time to reach a BIS of 40-60, burst suppression patterns, SEF, MF, drug consumption, hemodynamic stability, and clinical adverse events. Statistical analysis will be primarily descriptive, examining correlations between BIS, propofol, and the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of sevoflurane.

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Pediatric patients undergoing sevoflurane to TIVA transition | Pediatric patients aged 2-12 years scheduled for elective low or intermediate risk surgery, undergoing standard sevoflurane mask induction followed by transition to total intravenous anesthesia with propofol via target-controlled infusion (Eleveld model) and remifentanil, guided by Bispectral Index monitoring. |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Temporal evolution of propofol effect-site concentration under Eleveld-model TCI during anesthetic transition
Pattern of propofol effect-site concentration (Ce) adjustments (mcg/mL) over time during the transition from sevoflurane inhalation anesthesia to TIVA. Propofol is administered via target-controlled infusion using the Eleveld pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model with adjustment for opioid co-administration. Ce values are titrated under BIS-guided monitoring to maintain BIS between 40 and 60, as a function of decreasing sevoflurane minimum alveolar concentration.
Measured: From start of propofol infusion (T0, when sevoflurane MAC = 1.0 for age), until sevoflurane MAC = 0, or a maximum of 15 minutes, whichever occurs first.
Secondary outcomes (6)
Interindividual variability in propofol titration
Distribution of propofol effect-site concentration values required to maintain target BIS, expressed as mean, SD, median, and IQR across patients.
Measured: Throughout the transition period (up to 15 minutes from start of propofol infusion)
Time to reach target BIS range (40-60)
Time elapsed from start of propofol infusion until BIS first reaches 40-60 (minutes).
Measured: Up to 15 minutes from start of propofol infusion.
Time outside target BIS range
Cumulative time with BIS <40 and BIS >60 during transition (minutes).
Measured: Up to 15 minutes from start of propofol infusion
Duration of cortical suppression episodes
Total time with EEG suppression detected by BIS monitor (minutes).
Measured: Up to 15 minutes from start of propofol infusion
Spectral edge frequency (SEF) and median frequency (MF) over time
Time course of SEF and MF (Hz) recorded minute by minute from processed EEG.
Measured: Up to 15 minutes from start of propofol infusion
Incidence of intraoperative hemodynamic adverse events
Frequency of hypotension (≥20% drop in MAP from baseline), hypertension (≥20% rise in MAP from baseline), bradycardia (HR below age-adjusted normal range), and tachycardia (HR above age-adjusted normal range).
Measured: Up to 15 minutes from start of propofol infusion

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Anesthesia and Pediatric Anesthesia, run by Hospital de Clinicas José de San Martín at 2 sites in Argentina.
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 3 inclusion and 7 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 2 sites in Argentina. 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?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Manuel Cuevas, MD (542494675554, manuel.cuevas@anestesiologo.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Temporal evolution of propofol effect-site concentration under Eleveld-model TCI during anesthetic transition (time frame: From start of propofol infusion (T0, when sevoflurane MAC = 1.0 for age), until sevoflurane MAC = 0, or a maximum of 15 minutes, whichever occurs first.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07644260, which also lists 11 linked publications.
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.
