Bispectral Index to Guide Intubation in Pediatric Anesthesia
- Registration Number
- NCT02806596
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Liege
- Brief Summary
This prospective study aimed to determine the minimal level of Bispectral index needed for quality laryngoscopy before ear, nose and throat surgery in children.
- Detailed Description
* Children will received intra-rectal premedication based on midazolam 0.4mg
* Children will be monitored according to standard guidelines
* One blinded anesthesiologist will be in charge of anesthesia induction and the other one will be in charge of data collection (end tidal sevoflurane concentration, sevoflurane minimal alveolar concentration, bispectral index) and guidance of induction according to the predetermined bispectral index (up and down allocation)
