Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In this study, the investigators measure a pupil size every 5 minutes during the operation in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia. The investigators would compare the intraoperative opioid consumption and postoperative pain between the group adjusted the anesthetic drug concentration based on the changes of the pupil (Pupil group) and the group based on the changes of a surgical pleth index (SPI group).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Pupillometry group

In this group, anesthesia is performed using Pupillometry guided anesthesia.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Pupillometry guided anesthesia

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

At least 10 min after anesthesia induction by target-controlled infusion of propofol and remifentanil, baseline values for pupillary diameter is recorded before any surgical procedure.

During the operation, propofol effect-site target concentration (Ce) is adjusted to maintain the bispectral index (BIS) value between 40 and 60. Remifentanil Ce is adapted every 5 min based on the changes of pupillary diameter. If the pupillary diameter is increased by more than 30% compared to baseline value, remifentanil concentration is increased by 0.5 ng/ml. If the pupillary diameter is maintained between 5 and 30 % change compared with baseline, remifentanil is not modified. In a case of pupillary diameter is decreased less than 5 % change of baseline, remifentanil concentration is decreased by 0.5 ng/ml.

SPI group

In this group, anesthesia is performed using SPI guided anesthesia.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

SPI guided anesthesia

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

During the operation, SPI value should be maintained between 20 and 50 by changing the infusion rate of remifentanil. Even if the SPI is maintained within the target range, the remifentanil infusion rate is increased by 0.5 ng/ml in a case of the SPI value suddenly arises by more than 10.

Control group

In this group, remifentanil concentration is controlled by the discretion of the anesthesiologist in charge of the patients (Standard management).

Group Type SHAM_COMPARATOR

Standard management

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

During the operation, propofol effect-site target concentration (Ce) is adjusted to maintain the bispectral index (BIS) value between 40 and 60.

Remifentanil concentration is controlled by the discretion of the anesthesiologist in charge of the patients.
