Trial Outcomes & Findings for Closed Loop Isoflurane Administration With Bispectral Index in Open Heart Surgery (NCT NCT01069562)

NCT ID: NCT01069562

Last Updated: 2011-02-21

Results Overview

The duration of time depth of anesthesia was maintained in the recommended range (as measured by BIS) during the period isoflurane (general anesthetic) was administered to the study population. This value expressed as percentage is the primary outcome. BIS is an objective measure of depth of anesthesia derived from statistical(bispectral) analysis of electroencephalographic waves. BIS ranges from 0 to 100. It decreases monotonically from 100 in the awake state to lower values with sedation and anesthesia.

Participant Flow

The recruitment of participants started on 10th January 2009 and ended on 24th June 2010. All patients recruited were admitted for elective cardiac surgery in the Cardio Thoracic Surgery ward in Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh, India.

All the patients who were enrolled were randomized to the two study arms.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 8 hours (approximately)

Population: All the patients who were randomized completed the study protocol and were included for analysis

The difference between the observed and target of measure of depth of anesthesia (BIS) expressed as percentage of target BIS is calculated as performance error every 30 seconds. This value may be either '+' or '\_' indicating whether the observed measure is above the target (overshoot-+) or below the target (undershoot-\_). The median value of all performance errors during isoflurane anesthesia is median performance error and is a measure of bias of the system. This outcome is expressed as the mean of Median Performance Errors per participant.

Population: All the patients who were randomized completed the study protocol and were included for analysis

The median of the absolute values of performance errors (without considering the direction of error) is median absolute performance error. This outcome measures the magnitude of error or inaccuracy of the system studied. A lower value indicates a more precise system.This outcome is expressed as the mean of Median Absolute Performance Errors per participant.

Wobble measures the intra-individual variability in performance error.The median of the difference between individual performance errors throughout anesthesia and the median performance error for each participant is the wobble of that participant. The mean value per participant is indicated in the outcome measure.
