Monitoring of Adequate Course of General Anesthesia (MoDA)

November 2, 2017 updated by: Dariusz Tomaszewski, Military Institute of Medicine, Poland

A Comparison of Efficacy of Clinical Parameters With Auditory Evoked Potentials in Monitoring of Adequate Course of General Anesthesia

Clinical monitoring is the most common method of adjustment of the appropriate level of general anesthesia. However, the episodes of intraoperative awareness are still reported, suggesting that clinical observations may not be sufficient in some cases. The objective of the study was to compare the efficacy of clinical and instrumental neuromonitoring with auditory evoked potentials in intraoperative analysis of the proper level of general anesthesia.

The patients scheduled for elective surgery were included into the study, and randomly divided into two groups. Patients in the first group (TIVA group) underwent intravenous, in the second group (VA group) underwent volatile anesthesia. The adequacy of anesthesia was analyzed with standard clinical parameters. All the participants were instrumentally monitored with AAI index. After the anesthesia patients received a questionnaire with the questions regarding possible intraoperative awareness.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
OTHER: TIVA group

The participants scheduled for elective ENT procedures or for elective discectomy. The surgery was performed under totally intravenous anesthesia.

During procedure, monitoring of the proper level of general anesthesia both clinical and instrumental was performed.

The monitoring of the adequate level of general anesthesia was performed both clinically and instrumentally.
Other Names:
  • clinical monitoring
  • instrumental monitoring
