Brief Summary

During functional endoscopic sinus surgery(FESS), low-pressure anesthesia is often applied, aiming to decreased operative blood loss, and anesthetics, narcotics and antihypertensive agents are given to achieve desirable low blood pressure. However, the dose of these medications given is usually decided subjectively based on the clinical experience of the care provider, placing the patient in a risky situation of narcotics overdosing or underdosing. Therefore, here is the question: Whether intraoperative analgesia guided by an objective pain monitoring device, such as the Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI), could decrease the amount of narcotics, other anesthetic agents, and blood loss in patients undergoing low-pressure anesthesia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Narcotics consumption

    Remifentanil would be used as narcotics, the total amount used intraoperatively would be recorded

    From the first given dose of remifentanil until the last given given dose of remifentanil during anesthesia, assessed up to 8 hours.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Anesthetics consumption

    From the first given dose of anesthetics (propofol or midazolam, whichever comes first) until the last given given dose of anesthetics (propofol or midazolam, whichever comes last), assessed up to 8 hours.

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Blood loss

    the estimated blood loss would be recorded immediately after the operation

  • Bleeding of the operation field

    The questionnaire would be provided to the surgeon immediately after the operation

Study Arms (2)

ANI-guided

EXPERIMENTAL

ANI-guided narcotics use to maintain ANI value between 50 to 70

Device: analgesia nociception index

Control

NO INTERVENTION

narcotics use guided by clinical experience, ANI is still recorded but would be covered up intraoperatively

Interventions

Analgesia nociception index (ANI) could objectively monitor how pain the participant is. In the experimental group, the care provider would decrease the dose of narcotics (remifentanil) if the ANI value is above 70, and increase the dose if the ANI value is under 50.

Masking Details
The analgesia nociception index sensors are a pair of patches. They would be placed on the participant's right shoulder and the left side of the chest before the induction of general anesthesia, recording the ANI value throughout the operation. In the control group, the ANI monitor would be covered up, so that the care provider could only titrate remifentanil based on clinical experience. The participants would be masked from which group they were allocated into. The surgeon would be masked from the participant's allocation, and surgeon's satisfaction to the operation field would be surveyed by a questionnaire right after the operation, also the estimated blood loss amount would be recorded by the same surgeon.
