Awareness in Old Aged Patients During Laryngoscopy and Intubation Using Isolated Forearm Technique

NCT05019560 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 50

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Awareness during general anesthesia - that has an incidence between 0.1% and 0.9% of cases and may be more in elderly - remains a concern for anesthesiologists. Awareness experiences range from isolated auditory perceptions to reports of a patient being fully awake, immobilized, and in pain. The isolated forearm technique allows assessment of consciousness of the external world (connected consciousness) through a verbal command to move the hand (of a tourniquet-isolated arm) during intended general anesthesia.

Conditions

  • Awareness, Anesthesia
  • Recall Phenomenon
  • Inhalation; Gas

Interventions

DRUG

Sevoflurane

IFT response, hemodynamics and BIS value were recorded during intubation period. Then the data acquisition was stopped and the isolated forearm cuff deflated. IFT values were noted by two independent observers

DRUG

TIVA
