NCT02524327

Brief Summary

The first aim of this study is to compare two methods of administration of intravenous anesthetics to obtain the same level of depth (bispectral index between 40 and 60): manual or automated and to determine a mid-term (6 months) influence of the frail phenotype on self-sufficient elderly patients after general anesthesia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rate of patients without occurrence of disability according to the InterRai scale

    Disability is evaluated using the InterRai scale; a death is considered as an irreversible disability institutionalization is considered as a severe disability InterRai scale would discriminate other patients

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (13)

  • Mortality at day 28

    28 days

  • Mortality at month 6

    6 months

  • Rate of postoperative cognitive dysfunction

    6 months

  • Incidence of pneumopathy

    6 months

  • Incidence of pulmonary embolism

    6 months

  • +8 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Toolbox: Automated group

EXPERIMENTAL

Toolbox: Automated administration of intravenous anesthetic (propofol 1%) and analgesic (remifentanil, Ultiva(r)) guided by the Bispectral index through a controller with a previously described algorithm. Objective of depth anesthesia: 40-60

Other: Toolbox: Automated group

Manual group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Manual administration of intravenous anesthetic (propofol 1%) and analgesic (remifentanil, Ultiva(r)) guided by the Bispectral index as usually performed in the operative theater. Objective of depth anesthesia: 40-60

Other: Manual group

Interventions

A dedicated algorithm controls the infusion rate of drugs depending on the magnitude of variation of the bispectral index

Also known as: controller
Toolbox: Automated group

The anesthesiologist controls the infusion rate of drugs depending of the magnitude of variation of the bispectral index

Manual group
