PAEDIATRIC ANAESTHESIA Performance of entropy and Bispectral Index as measures of anaesthesia effect in children of different agesy

چکیده
Background. Entropy and Bispectral Index (BIS ) have been promoted as EEG-based anaesthesia depth monitors. The EEG changes with brain maturation, but there are limited published data describing the characteristics of entropy in children, and some data suggest that BIS is less reliable in young children. The aim of this study was to compare the performance of entropy as a measure of anaesthetic effect in different age groups. The performance of entropy was compared with BIS.

The performance of Bispectral Index in children during equi-MAC halothane vs. sevoflurane anaesthesia.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The reliability of the Bispectral Index for evaluating and monitoring the depth of general anaesthesia in children is not as great as for that in adults. Therefore we analysed Bispectral Index performance in children by comparing changes in Bispectral Index values during a standardized and equipotent anaesthetic regimen using either halothane or sevoflurane for the indu...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Paediatric Tracheostomy Decannulation: Factors Affecting Outcome
Introduction: Evidence for factors determining paediatric tracheostomy decannulation vary extensively; therefore, this prospective observational study aimed to investigate these factors. Materials and Methods: In total, 67 consecutive paediatric patients (<12 years old) who referred to the Department of Otolaryngology, (Postgraduate Institute Medical Education and Research),(Chandigarh), ...
متن کاملAwareness and paediatric anaesthesia.
Awareness is a topical and controversial issue in adult anaesthesia. Scant attention has been paid to this topic in children. Accepting extrapolations from adult data may not be sufficient due to the differing practise of anaesthesia in paediatrics, the altered pharmacology of anaesthetics and the developmental psychology of children. Current revival of interest in awareness in adults has been ...
متن کاملInfluence of different remifentanil concentrations on the performance of the surgical stress index to detect a standardized painful stimulus during sevoflurane anaesthesia.
BACKGROUND Although measurement of cerebral hypnotic drug effect and muscle relaxation is common clinical routine during anaesthesia, a reliable measurement of the neurophysiological effects evoked by a painful stimulus is still missing. Recently, the surgical stress index (SSI) has been introduced as a surrogate measure of 'nociception'. The present study aimed to examine the influence of incr...
متن کاملEffect of landiolol on bispectral index and spectral entropy responses to tracheal intubation during propofol anaesthesia.
BACKGROUND beta1-Adrenoceptor antagonists suppress the haemodynamic and arousal responses to tracheal intubation. The Entropy Module shows two spectral entropy-based indices, response entropy (RE) and state entropy (SE). The difference between RE and SE (RE-SE) may reflect nociception during general anaesthesia. In the present study, we investigated the effect of landiolol on entropy indices in...
