NCT01470898

Brief Summary

Bispectral Index Monitoring (BIS) has been proven to be effective in preventing awareness. Optimizing anesthesia level using BIS monitoring, neither to light nor to deep will probably help to shorten recovery time and reduce drug consumption. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of BIS monitoring on extubation and recovery time, and intraoperative anesthesia consumption.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Bispectral index (BIS) monitoring in abdominal surgery patients

    At the induction of anesthesia, and every 15 minutes during operation BIS levels were recorded.

    six months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Effect of bispectral index (BIS) monitoring on faster recovery time in abdominal surgery patients

    six months

Study Arms (2)

anesthesia monitoring

EXPERIMENTAL

Bispectral Index Monitoring (BIS) has been proven to be effective in preventing awareness. Optimizing anesthesia level using BIS monitoring, neither to light nor to deep will probably help to shorten recovery time and reduce drug consumption. A BIS sensor was applied to patient's forehead before induction of anesthesia and connected to A-2000 BIS monitor (Aspect Medical Systems, Newton, MA, USA). It records the electroencephalogram from 4 electrodes and after processing it with mathematic algorithms it generates a number from 0 to 100. When the BIS value is lower than 40, the patient is in deep anesthesia state, when the value is over 80, the patient is under light sedation.

Device: bispectral index monitoring

no bispectral index monitoring

EXPERIMENTAL

At the induction of anesthesia, and every 15 minutes during operation following parameters were recorded: heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (BP), end-tidal CO2 (etCO2) and BIS level. Also, operation time and extubation time were recorded. Finally, all patients were visited on the first postoperative day and interviewed about intraoperative recall.
