Recovery After Upper Extrimety Surgery (Recovery)

14. juli 2026 opdateret af: Region Örebro County

The Effect of Anaesthetic Technique and How Anaesthesia is Titrated on the Postoperative Cognitive Performance and General Recovery Following Hand and Upper Extremity Surgery.

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to determine whether Bispectral Index (BIS)-guided general anesthesia improves postoperative cognitive recovery and overall quality of recovery in adults undergoing elective hand or arm surgery.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does BIS-guided anesthesia improve postoperative cognitive recovery compared with general anesthesia guided by routine clinical signs?

Does BIS-guided anesthesia improve overall postoperative recovery, as measured by the Postoperative Quality of Recovery Scale (PQRS)?

Researchers will compare patients receiving BIS-guided general anesthesia with patients receiving clinically guided general anesthesia, in which the BIS monitor records data but the displayed values are concealed from the anesthesia team, to determine whether BIS-guided anesthetic management improves postoperative recovery. An additional comparison group will consist of patients undergoing surgery under intravenous regional anesthesia without general anesthesia.

Participants will:

undergo elective hand or arm surgery; receive either BIS-guided or clinically guided general anesthesia, or intravenous regional anesthesia without general anesthesia; complete PQRS assessments before surgery and at multiple postoperative time points, including follow-up for up to three months.

Studieoversigt

Detaljeret beskrivelse

The study was designed to investigate the relationship between anesthetic technique, depth of general anesthesia, and postoperative cognitive and overall recovery following elective surgery of the hand or arm.Patients scheduled to receive general anesthesia were randomly allocated using sealed envelopes to one of two general-anesthesia groups. In the BIS-guided group, anesthetic delivery was adjusted using the Bispectral Index, with a target BIS range of 40 to 60. In the clinically guided group, anesthesia was adjusted according to routine clinical indicators, such as blood pressure, heart rate, movement, and other clinical signs. BIS monitoring was also connected in this group, but the values were concealed from the anesthesia personnel and stored for later analysis.General anesthesia was induced with propofol and maintained using sevoiurane and remifentanil according to the study protocol and routine clinical practice. Standard intraoperative monitoring included electrocardiography, noninvasive blood-pressure measurement, oxygen saturation, temperature, and BIS monitoring. Perioperative fluids, treatment of blood-pressure changes, analgesia, and prevention or treatment of postoperative nausea were managed according to the study protocol and usual clinical routines.A separate comparison group consisted of patients whose planned operation was performed using intravenous regional/local anesthesia without general anesthesia. These patients were not randomly assigned to the regional-anesthesia group; their anesthetic method had already been selected as part of their clinical surgical plan.Postoperative recovery was evaluated using the Postoperative Quality of Recovery Scale.

Each participant completed a preoperative baseline assessment, and postoperative assessments were planned at approximately 20 minutes, 40 minutes, 24 hours, 48 hours, 14 days, and 90 days after surgery. The scale assessed physiological recovery, pain and postoperative nausea or vomiting, emotional recovery, cognitive performance, activities of daily living, and overall patient-reported recovery.Cognitive assessments included orientation, forward digit recall, backward digit recall, word recall, and word generation.

Postoperative performance was compared with each participant's own preoperative baseline rather than with a single population-level cutoff.The prospect primary assessment was cognitive recovery at 48 hours after surgery. Additional assessments examined recovery at the other postoperative time points, anesthetic exposure, recorded BIS values, perioperative physiological variables, and early postoperative recovery.

Eksperimentel: BIS-Guided General Anesthesia
Participants scheduled for general anesthesia were randomized to anesthesia guided by visible Bispectral Index monitoring. The anesthesia team adjusted anesthetic delivery using a target BIS range of 40 to 60. General anesthesia was induced with propofol and maintained with a volatile anesthetic and remifentanil according to the study protocol.
General anesthesia was guided by visible Bispectral Index monitoring. Anesthetic delivery was adjusted to maintain a BIS value between 40 and 60. The protocol included propofol for induction and remifentanil with a volatile anesthetic for maintenance.
Aktiv komparator: Clinically Guided General Anesthesia
Participants scheduled for general anesthesia were randomized to anesthesia guided by routine clinical signs. BIS monitoring was connected and recorded throughout anesthesia, but the BIS display was concealed from the anesthesia personnel and was not used to guide anesthetic delivery. The anesthetic regimen otherwise followed the same study protocol as the BIS-guided group.

Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Participants With Cognitive Recovery at 48 Hours
Tidsramme: 48 hours after surgery
Cognitive recovery was assessed using the cognitive domain of the Postoperative Quality of Recovery Scale (PQRS). The domain included orientation, forward digit recall, backward digit recall, word recall, and word generation. Each participant's postoperative performance was compared with that participant's preoperative baseline using the PQRS recovery criteria. A participant was classiMed as cognitively recovered when all applicable cognitive subtests met the recovery criteria. The outcome was reported as the number and percentage of participants cognitively recovered

Nausea, retching, and vomiting were assessed using the PQRS nociceptive-domain nausea and vomiting item. Scores ranged from 1, no nausea, retching, or vomiting, to 5, continuous retching or vomiting. Lower scores indicated fewer symptoms. Nausea and vomiting severity scores were assessed and summarized at each postoperative time point.

Each activity was rated as 1, unable; 2, able with difficulty; or 3, able with ease. Higher scores indicated better function. Recovery was determined according to PQRS activities of daily living recovery criteria by comparison with the participant's preoperative baseline. Participants were classified as recovered when all applicable activities met recovery criteria.
