Preanesthetic Analgesia/Nociception Index (ANI) and Propofol Injection Pain

October 6, 2023 updated by: Cheol Lee,MD,PhD,, Wonkwang University Hospital

Can Preanesthetic Analgesia/Nociception Index (ANI) Predict Propofol Injection Pain

Recently, Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) has been evaluated for objectively measuring peri-operative pain and to guide intra-operative opioid administration during various surgeries.

Propofol injection pain (PIP) is a common problem and can be very distressing to the patient.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

This study aimed to the association of preanesthetic ANI scores and PIP in patients who scheduled for general anesthesia.

Before propofol administration in remifentanil group, preanesthetic ANI values (instant and mean) were checked after remifentanil to a target Ce of 4 ng/ml.

Control group received the same volume of saline as remifentanil group. Heart rate and bispectral index were checked as ANI. Point biserial correlation and ROC curve were analyzed.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Placebo Comparator: Control group
To maintain blinding, in the control group, the remifentanil infusion was replaced with 50 ml of normal saline in 50 ml syringe. The remifentanil (or saline) infusion was run until the pump indicated the target Ce had been achieved. Pharmacokinetic model for remifentanil was the Minto model (Height, Weight, and Age) Anesthesia in all patients was induced using 2 mg/kg of 2% propofol. The attending anesthesiologist asked the patients how they felt pain to evaluate pain severity of PIP while half -dose of propofol was administered. After the rest of the propofol was administered, the attending anesthesiologists asked the same question.
V1 and V5 electrocardiographic positions as per the manufacturer's recommendations. The ANI was continuously recorded and displayed with a frequency of 1 Hz. ANI scores measured immediately before propofol administration, half-dose administration (1mg/kg), and full-dose administration (2mg/kg)of propofol.
Other Names:
  • ANI MOC-9
Experimental: Remifentanil group
Remifentanil 1 mg was diluted into 50 ml of normal saline. A commercial TCI pump (Orchestra Base Primea, Fresenius Vial, France) was used for the effect-site TCI of remifentanil. The study groups received remifentanil to a target Ce of 4 ng/ ml. Pharmacokinetic model for remifentanil was the Minto model (Height, Weight, and Age) Anesthesia induction and the evaluation of pain were same as control group
V1 and V5 electrocardiographic positions as per the manufacturer's recommendations. The ANI was continuously recorded and displayed with a frequency of 1 Hz. ANI scores measured immediately before propofol administration, half-dose administration (1mg/kg), and full-dose administration (2mg/kg)of propofol.
