Newborn Infant Parasympathetic Evaluation (NIPE) Index After Standardized Tetanic Stimulations Under General Anesthesia

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Anesthesia
Interventions
Device: NIPE monitor
Procedure: Tetanic stimulations
Registration Number
NCT04381637
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Lille
Brief Summary

NIPE monitor is the recently developed pediatric version of the ANI monitor, which is used in adults to monitor analgesia during general anesthesia. In adults, under general anesthesia, ANI decreases after a nociceptive stimulation. The amplitude of this decrease is related to the intensity of the stim. This study aims to investigate if NIPE index decreases in the same manner after stimulations in anesthetized children.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Variation of NIPE index (∆NIPE)3 minutes following tetanic stimulation

∆NIPE = \[NIPE minimal value in the 3 minutes following the stim\] - \[NIPE before stim\]

NIPE varies from 0 to 100. Monitor displays one value per second. NIPE index expected to decrease after stim.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Heart rate Variation (∆HR)3 minutes following tetanic stimulation

∆HR = \[HR maximal value in the 3 minutes following the stim\] - \[HR before stim\] Heart rate expected to increase after stim.
