Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Men and women aged >18 years; All-round oriented patients who are capable of being informed preoperatively; A surgical procedure is planned within the next 3 days, which requires monitoring in the intensive or intermediate care unit due to size and/or comorbidities; Written consent of the patient for the study.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Pregnancy; Neurological diseases associated with a restriction of peripheral conduction such as - paraplegia - Muscular dystrophy - Polyneuropathy (also in advanced diabetes mellitus, C2 abusus) - Critical illness polyneuropathy (CIP) - clinical suspicion, - Multiple sclerosis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, denervating neurological diseases - Cardiac pacemakers or electrical defibrillators - to date, no damage to such devices has been proven as a result of the applied currents. We want to avoid potential damage to the devices and thus a risk to the patient in any case! Subsequent withdrawal of consent to participate in the study.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Transfer of our pain measurement technology evaluated in preliminary laboratory work into clinical application. The adapted technology will be validated on patients. Hypothesis: The pain intensities of the self-report or external report from NRS > 5 can be detected by the technology with a significantly higher than 85% detection rate. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To investigate the acceptance of non-intrusive sensor-based pain measurement technology by medical staff and patients and to determine the reasons for acceptance and rejection. Hypotheses: a) The age of the clinical staff has an influence on acceptance. b) Doctors from different specialties rate acceptance differently (non-directional). c) Patients accept a non-intrusive sensor-based pain detection technology. In addition, the achievable measurement quality is analyzed when scaling/reducing the sensor technology to subsets of the modalities, e.g. only EDA or only contactless video sensor technology. | — |
