Summary

The management and prediction of pain is one of the most crucial jobs for anesthetists. It has been shown that a patient's ability to remain calm during stressful situations is related to their post-surgical pain scores. The MetroDoloris Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) monitor is a heart-rate monitor that provides us with a number which reflects a patient's state of relaxation (or parasympathetic tone). For this reason, the investigators are testing whether ANI can be used as a metric for perioperative anxiety, and a predictive tool for pain after c-sections.

Conditions

  • Anxiety
  • Opioid Consumption
  • Cesarean Section

Interventions

DEVICE

Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) Monitor

The ANI monitor produces an objective measure of parasympathetic tone through non-invasive electrodes placed on the patient's chest. The patient's standard of care is not affected, and the anesthetist is blinded to the monitor, so as not to affect their anesthetic practice.
