NCT07259291
Remifentanil is commonly used as an opioid during general anesthesia. In recent years, several pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) models for target-controlled infusion (TCI) have been developed, with the Eleveld model being one of the most recent and designed for broad applicability. The aim of this study is to compare the Eleveld TCI model with the routinely used Minto model, in order to evaluate potential differences in the predicted effect-site concentrations (CeR) required to achieve equivalent analgesia levels, as measured by qNOX (CONOX monitor) and the Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI). Post-Tetanic Count (PTC) was also assessed during the maintenance phase to investigate possible differences in nociceptive index responses between the two TCI models.
NCT07239687
This prospective observational study aims to compare the clinical performance of two target-controlled infusion (TCI) models, Eleveld and Schnider, for propofol sedation in mechanically ventilated intensive care unit (ICU) patients. The study evaluates sedation depth, hemodynamic stability, and recovery profiles using the Bispectral Index (BIS) and Riker Sedation-Agitation Scale. Secondary outcomes include awakening time, total propofol dose, and incidence of delirium after sedation withdrawal. The findings may help identify the most reliable pharmacokinetic model for safe and effective ICU sedation.
NCT06729892
The propofol-remifentanil closed-loop TCI system based on EEG guidance has been clinically verified, which enables more precise anesthetic dosing. As an adjunct to anesthesia, esketamine has been shown to stabilize hemodynamics, reduce opioid use, and reduce postoperative nausea and vomiting. However, due to its specific electroencephalographic excitatory effect, esketmine's clinical use in close-loop system has been limited. The aim of this experiment was to determine the specific impact of esketamine on EEG and thus obtain a new EEG baseline for close-loop system, which can broaden the application of close-loop TCI system in combination with other drugs.
NCT06651749
The investigators will test the hemodynamic effects of a high dose versus low dose Propofol during induction of anesthesia.
NCT06386965
Stress is defined as hormonal and metabolic changes in the biological system that follow any injury. The stress response occurs as a general systemic response to injury and includes a wide range of endocrinological, immunological and hematological effects. The level of stress in the surgical process can affect not only the patients outcome but also the overall health system. The two main agents used in maintenance for general anesthesia are inhalation and intravenous anesthetics. Both inhalation anesthesia and TIVA (Total Intravenous Anesthesia) approaches provide general anesthesia suitable for surgical operations. However, the mechanisms of action of these two methods differ and are not fully understood. The aim of investigators' for this study was to investigate the effect of different anesthetic agents on stress inflammatory response in the preoperative, peroperative and postoperative periods.
NCT06522711
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if virtual reality can reduce propofol requirements in adult, female patients undergoing elective breast surgery under regional anesthesia. The main question it aims to answer is: Can virtual reality immersion reduce intra-operative propofol requirements in adult female patients undergoing elective breast surgery under regional anesthesia? Researchers will compare time and weight-adjusted average propofol requirements in both the intervention group and the control group to see if there is a reduction in sedative usage in the group using the virtual reality device. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a virtual reality (intervention) group or a control group. * The patients in the virtual reality group will have a virtual reality headset on during the surgery with a preselected scenario of their choice. * Both groups will have access to patient-controlled sedation under the supervision of an anesthesiologist and will be permitted to self-administer propofol boluses as needed.
NCT06098196
Aminophylline is an intravenous drug commonly utilized for asthma. However, some preclinical studies and few case reports and case series have described its utility in decrease the timing of return of consciousness after Propofol anaesthesia with an intravenous bolus of 4 mg/kg. We aimed to compare its effect during a total Intravenous Anaesthesia with Target Controlled Infusion (TIVA-TCI) routinely utilized for general anaesthesia in our hospital.
NCT06243822
this study is to assess the hemodynamic profile of ketamine compared with propofol in critically ill, mechanically ventilated adult Patients study will be carried out on 100 mechanically ventilated patients who received one sedative agent propofol or ketamine The patients will be randomized into two equal groups to receive either ketamine or propofol Group 1 (Ketamine group): ketamine is initiated at 0.5 mg/kg/h and titrated by 0.25 mg/kg/h every 15 minutes to a maximum dosage of 4 mg/kg/h to achieve appropriate sedation. Group 2 (Propofol group): Propofol is initiated at 0.3 to 0.6 mg /kg/hr. and titrated by 0.3 to 0.6 mg/kg/h every 5 to 10 minutes up to a maximum dosage of 4.5 to 4.8 mg/kg/hr. to achieve appropriate sedation.
NCT05688345
A total of 120 patients (American Society of Anesthesiologist Physical Status 1-3) who signed a consent form among patients aged 19-80 years who are scheduled to undergo brachial plexus block and upper extremity surgery under monitored anesthetic care at our hospital were enrolled. Recruited patients are divided into three groups through computer-generated randomization by using the patient identification number assigned during patient recruitment. (40 people in each group) Standard monitoring is performed when the patient arrives at the operating room. Patients receive oxygen at 5-6 L/min using a simple facial mask, and receive a brachial plexus block under ultrasound guidance. After confirming the success of brachial plexus block, administration of propofol, remimazolam, or dexmedetomidine is started according to the assigned group. Assess the patient's level of consciousness through the MOAA/S (modified observer's assessment of alertness/sedation scale) scale. The drug injection ends when the skin suture is started after the main procedure. The time from the end of injection of each drug until MOAA/S becomes 5 points is measured. After the patient is transferred to the recovery room, the Aldrete score is assessed. The recovery profile, perioperative hemodynamic change, desaturation event, block duration, patient movement during surgery, patient satisfaction, and surgeon's satisfaction were investigated and analyzed for comparison.
NCT04520503
The induction dose of propofol is generally determined based on patients' characteristics, underlying disease, general condition, and also by clinician's experiences. However, It is difficult to anticipate and objectively calculate an adequate dose of propofol for every patient considering the variability of an individual's response to propofol. If there is a specific pattern in EEG prior to induction of anesthesia that can provide information about the patient's susceptibility to propofol, every induction may be performed far more smoothly with a precisely optimized dose of propofol for each patient. The study is to find a relationship between the pre-induction EEG pattern of adult patients and their sensitivity to propofol.
NCT04805775
This study intends to investigate the effects of desflurane on postoperative sleep quality to guide perioperative patient management.
NCT05533580
Cerebral autoregulation (CA) is the property of the cerebral vascular bed to maintain cerebral perfusion in the presence of changes in blood pressure. In the case of anesthesia, altered cerebral autoregulation, including altered carbon dioxide and hemodilution, can impair physiological changes in the body and lead to poor postoperative prognosis. As a novel ultra-short-acting benzodiazepines drugs, remimazolam has been accepted for induction and maintenance of clinical anesthesia. Compared to the traditional benzodiazepines drugs, remimazolam combines the safety of midazolam with the effectiveness of propofol, and also has the advantages of acting quickly, short half-life, no injection pain, slight respiratory depression, independent of liver and kidney metabolism, long-term infusion without accumulation, and has a specific antagonist: flumazenil. Our study aimed to investigate the different effects of remimazolam and propofol on dynamic cerebral blood flow autoregulation function during general anesthesia.
NCT05244538
This study compares hypnosis via virtual reality to sedation with commonly used intravenous anesthetic agents (propofol and remifentanil) during oocyte retrieval. The main objective of this prospective randomized controlled study will be a reduction of 50 percent of the doses of remifentanil and propofol administered during oocyte retrieval while maintaining satisfaction with the quality of care.
NCT04774120
The aim of this study is to describe the BIS values and electroencephalographic patterns during total intravenous anesthesia with propofol-remifentanyl, in patients from 18 to 85 years.
NCT04345926
In the world, 230 million surgeries are performed per year and a significant part is performed in patients over 65 years of age. These patients are more labile, especially from the neurocognitive point of view with a high risk to develop neurocognitive complications, such as postoperative delirium. Recent studies have linked this type of complication with an overdose of general anesthetics during surgery. For this reason, in recent years, the use of brain function monitors during the intraoperative period has been recommended to adapt the dosage of the drugs to each patient and thus to avoid overdosing of general anesthetics. However, to date, the available monitors that process the electroencephalographic signal are not able to adequately discriminate gradual changes in anesthetic depth. Also, no systematic studies have been performed that analyze changes that occur in the electroencephalogram (EEG) signal secondary to increases in complications from general anesthetics. Thus, the investigators design this study with the main aim to determine the changes in electroencephalographic patterns induced by a stepped increase of propofol until the burst suppression is reached.

Adequate sleep is necessary for physical and mental health of human being. Although surgery and anesthesia techniques have improved in resent years, postoperative sleep disturbance remains a challenging problem in surgical procedures1. Postoperative sleep fragmentation and poor sleep quality can not only result in hyperalgesia and a delay in postoperative recovery2, lack of sleep after surgery can also bring many potential adverse effects such as cognitive disorders (such as delusions, delirium), chronic pain, mood disorders, metabolic disorders, and pro-inflammatory changes3-5. Previous studies have reported that age, preoperative comorbidity and severity of surgical trauma were independent factors that associated with postoperative sleep disturbance6,7. Our prior studies have also found that patients are more likely to experience decreased sleep quality after receiving general anesthesia, which was characterized by a decrease in each sleep stage8. Propofol and sevoflurane are commonly used general anesthetics in clinical practice. The choice of anesthetic may also affect the cognitive outcome after surgery, but the results of clinical studies have always been contradictory. Some studies report that the cognitive results after inhalation are worse than those after intravenous anesthesia. And the incidence of dreaming was significantly higher in the sevoflurane anesthesia group compared to the propofol group9-11. Another study conduct among infants proved that compared with propofol-remifentanil, sevoflurane appears to be associated with less sleep disturbances in the first weeks after surgery12. Based on these conflicts, the aim of the current study was to compare the effect of propofol vs sevoflurane on early postoperative sleep quality and complications of patients receiving laparoscopic surgery after general anesthesia.
