Abstract:
:We developed a closed-loop system to control the depth of anaesthesia and neuromuscular blockade using the bispectral index and the electromyogram simultaneously and evaluated the clinical performance of this combined system for general anaesthesia. Twenty-two adult patients were included in this study. Anaesthesia was induced by a continuous infusion of remifentanil at 0.4 μg.kg(-1) .min(-1) (induction dose) and then 0.25 μg.kg(-1) .min(-1) (maintenance dose) and propofol at 2 mg.kg(-1) 3 min later. The combined automatic control was started 2 min after tracheal intubation. The depth of anaesthesia was recorded using bispectral index monitoring using a target value of 40. The target value of neuromuscular blockade, using mivacurium, was a T1/T1(0) twitch height of 10%. The precision of the system was calculated using internationally defined performance parameters. Twenty patients were included in the data analysis. The mean (SD) duration of simultaneous control was 129 (69) min. No human intervention was necessary during the computer-controlled administration of propofol and mivacurium. All patients assessed the quality of anaesthesia as 'good' to 'very good'; there were no episodes of awareness. The mean (SD) median performance error, median absolute performance error and wobble for the control of depth of anaesthesia and for neuromuscular blockade were -0.31 (1.78), 6.76 (3.45), 6.32 (2.93) and -0.38 (1.68), 3.75 (4.83), 3.63 (4.69), respectively. The simultaneous closed-loop system using propofol and mivacurium was able to maintain the target values with a high level of precision in a clinical setting.
