Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Analgesia Nociception Index ANI before and after painful stimulation

    ANI is calculated from heart rate recordings 300 seconds before and after painful stimulations and compared

    300 seconds before and 300 seconds after painful stimulation

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • ANI at baseline

    300 seconds at rest

  • time for recovering

    10 minutes after painful stimulation

  • pain score measured by Visual Analog Scale

    immediately after painful stimulation

  • pain score measured by rFLACC scale

    immediately after painful stimulation

  • dysautonomic symptoms

    inclusion

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Children with cerebral palsy

Device: Analgesia Nociception Index

Interventions

The Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI, MDoloris Medical Systems, Lille, France), based on Heart Rate Variability analysis, measures continuously and non-invasively the influence of Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia on the heart rate. This 0-100 index indicates the proportion of paraS over sympathetic activity. In adults during surgery under general anesthesia, ANI decreases after painful stimulation and has been related to the balance between analgesia and nociception. ANI is calculated from heart rate recording.

Children with cerebral palsy
