The Ratio of Hypnotic to Analgesic Potency of Sevoflurane and Desflurane : Randomized Controlled Trial

The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the ratio of hypnotic to analgesic potency of sevoflurane and desflurane at equi-minimum alveolar concentration using SPI and EEG analysis.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Conditions

Detailed Description

Anesthetic agents vary in their relative hypnotic potency. Recent studies demonstrated that equi-minimum alveolar concentration of various volatile anesthetic agents may produce different spectral entropy or bispectral index values. However, there is no study that demonstrate the difference between analgesic potency of volatile anesthetics. The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the ratio of hypnotic to analgesic potency of sevoflurane and desflurane at equi-minimum alveolar concentration using SPI and EEG analysis.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Surgical pleth index
Time Frame: the 10 min at steady-state anesthesia after endotracheal intubation
The analgesic potency of volatile anesthetics was evaluated by surgical pleth index during standardized nociceptive stimulus (30 s, 50 mA, 50 Hz tetanic stimulation).
the 10 min at steady-state anesthesia after endotracheal intubation

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Bispectral index
Time Frame: the 10 min at steady-state anesthesia after endotracheal intubation
The hypnotic potency of volatile anesthetics was evaluated by bispectral index during standardized nociceptive stimulus (30 s, 50 mA, 50 Hz tetanic stimulation).
the 10 min at steady-state anesthesia after endotracheal intubation
