Comparison of the Nociception Monitoring Devices During Cardiac Surgery.

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Cardiac Surgery
Registration Number
NCT04712773
Lead Sponsor
Kuopio University Hospital
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the values of Surgical Pleth Index (SPI) and Nociception Level Index (NOL) measured simultaneously during cardiac surgery.

Detailed Description

Participants are given oral and written information about the course of the trial, associated risks and benefits and about the handling of the personal data on the day before the surgery by one of the investigators. Participants are also given written information about patient's rights and insurance, the aim of the trial and its course. 40 adult cardiac surgery patients will be recruited for the study. NOL and SPI values will be measured during the cardiac surgery procedure. All patients receive oral premedication and standardized anesthesia.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
SPI values measured at several timepoints during cardiac surgeryValues are measured during the course of the cardiac surgery procedure

SPI (Surgical Pleth Index) - index measuring nociceptive response based on pulse and pulse amplitude.

NOL values measured at several timepoints during cardiac surgeryValues are measured during the course of the cardiac surgery procedure

NOL (Nociception Level Index) - nociception index based on heart rate and its changes, pulse wave amplitude, skin impedance and its changes, temperature and their variations
