Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The performance of the aepEX™ as a measure of DoH in paediatric patients (1-18 years old), anaesthetised with propofol, sevoflurane or desflurane. The accuracy of the aepEX™ will be expressed in Pk-values.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The effects of different propofol concentrations, (applied by Target Controlled Infusion), sevoflurane and desflurane concentrations on the aepEX, the University of Michigan Sedation Scale (UMSS), BIS and hemodynamic variables.<br><br /><br /><br>MLAEP latencies and amplitudes will be extracted from the raw-MLAEP waveforms and linked to propofol plasma, sevoflurane and desflurane concentrations and the UMSS.
