Summary

The purpose of this prospective randomized controlled study is to compare the analgesic properties of propofol and sevoflurane using variation of the NOL index and standard monitoring (Heart Rate and Mean Arterial Blood Pressure) when patients under general anaesthesia with either agents are subjected to a standardized painful stimulus (a tetanic stimulation over the ulnar nerve at 70 mA, 100 Hz for 30 seconds).

Conditions

  • Nociceptive Pain
  • Anesthesia

Interventions

DRUG

Propofol

In the propofol group, general anesthesia will be induced using target-controlled infusion (TCI) of propofol and remifentanil. Marsh pharmacokinetic model will be used to set the initial target predicted effect-site concentration of propofol at 3.0 mcg/ml in flash mode. Simultaneously, target-controlled infusion of remifentanil will be started to reach an initial target predicted effect-site concentration of 3 ng/mL using the Minto pharmacokinetic model. After tracheal intubation, TCI of remifentanil is paused.

DRUG

Sevoflurane

In the sevoflurane group, induction of general anesthesia will be carried out by spontaneous breathing through a mask while progressively opening up the dial of the sevoflurane vaporizer up to 8%. Like in the propofol group, target-controlled infusion of remifentanil is simultaneously started to reach an initial target predicted effect-site concentration of 3 ng/mL. Vaporizer is adjusted when gas equilibration reaches the patient-specific concentration 1.0 MAC of sevoflurane. After tracheal intubation, TCI of remifentanil is paused.
