Early Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction After Closed Loop Anesthesia vs Inhalational Anesthesia or TIVA

July 3, 2016 updated by: Cotoia Antonella, University of Foggia

Incidence of Early Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction After Closed Loop Anesthesia vs Inhalational Anesthesia or TIVA

This study is designed to test the hypothesis that closed loop system reduces post operative cognitive dysfunction incidence 15 min after anesthesia more than desflurane, sevorane, total intravenous anesthesia manually guided by bispectral index in urologic surgical patients.

The secondary aim is to evaluate the postoperative cognitive impairment in in elderly vs younger surgical patients.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a transient cognitive impairment manifested by compromised memory and concentration with altered performance on intellectual tasks that can affect patients of any age but it is more frequent in advanced age people after anesthesia.

Recently clinical research has demonstrated the efficacy of computer- controlled endovenous drug delivery system guided by bispectral index score (BIS) of the electroencephalogram as the control variable. The BIS closed loop (CL) titration of propofol and remifentanyl target control infusion provides clinically adequate anesthesia with stability of cardiovascular parameters and favorable patients outcomes, including decreasing drug consumption and shortened postoperative recovery times when compared with manual control infusion.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Auto Total endovenous anesthesia
The closed loop delivering as already approved by ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00392158
a closed-loop controller guided by the BIS steering the infusion pumps (Alaris Medical UK Ldt, Hants, Uk) as already approved by ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00392158
Other Names:
  • AutoTIVA
Sham Comparator: Manual Desflurane anesthesia
The anesthesia will be maintained with desflurane to target the BIS of 50.
General anesthesia will be maintained with desflurane (Baxter D-Vapor Desflurane Vaporiser) to obtain a BIS value as close as possible to 50 and between 40
Other Names:
  • DES
Sham Comparator: Manual sevoflurane anesthesia
The anesthesia will be maintained with sevoflurane to target the BIS of 50.
General anesthesia will be maintained with sevoflurane ( Baxter Vapour 2000 Sevoflurane Vapouriser) to obtain a BIS value as close as possible to 50 and between 40 and 60.
Other Names:
  • SEVO
Sham Comparator: Manual total endovenous anestesia
In ManualTIVA group, the anesthesia will be maintained with propofol to target the BIS of 50
In ManualTIVA group, the anesthesia will be maintained with propofol (Injectomat TIVA Agilia, Fresenius Kabi, Bad Hamburg, Germany) to obtain a BIS value as close as possible to 50 and between 40 and 60.
Other Names:
  • Manual TIVA
