Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI)

    Index from 0 to 100 Variation 5 minutes before during and 5 minutes after cannulation Comparison between anxious and non-anxious patients Measure of anxiety reduction

    at Day 0

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Coefficient of variation of pupillary diameter (CVDP)

    at Day 0

  • Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    at Day 0

  • Heart rate variability

    at Day 0

  • Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI)

    at Day 0 - after 30 minutes immersive light intervention

  • Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    at Day 0 - after 30 minutes immersive light intervention

Interventions

Portable videopupillometer to measure pupillary light reflex (PLR), variation coefficient of pupillary diameter (VCPD), pupillary diameter (PD) fluctuations before, during and 5 minutes after cannulation

Also known as: Pupillometric measures

Non invasive finger tip monitoring before during and 5 minutes after cannulation

Also known as: Heart rate variability measures
