Pediatric Frontal and Nasal Bispectral Index

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
BIS
Interventions
Device: Bispectral index (BIS)
Registration Number
NCT06255236
Lead Sponsor
Mahidol University
Brief Summary

To compare the accuracy of frontal versus nasal BIS monitoring in pediatric patients under general anesthesia.

Detailed Description

Standard position of frontal bispectral index (BIS) may not be available in some operations that frontal area is occupied by surgical field. This prospective cohort study aims to compare the accuracy of the BIS between an alternative position across the nasal area with the standard frontal BIS position in pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
bispectral index (BIS) value5 hours

BIS is a processed electroencephalogram (range from 0-100), the optimal value of BIS during general anesthesia is 40-60. We aim to define the differences between standard frontal BIS and nasal BIS using Bland-Altman analysis.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
signal quality index (SQI)5 hours

SQI (range from 0-100) determines the quality of signal of the primary outcome (BIS). We aim to define the differences of SQI of BIS between standard frontal and nasal positions.

electromyography (EMG)5 hours

EMG (range from 0-100) reports the interference of muscle activity on quality of the primary outcome (BIS). We aim to define the differences of EMG between standard frontal and nasal positions.
