Brief summary
The aim of this randomized trial is to assess the efficacy of SPI-directed analgesia for vitreoretinal surgeries (VRS), presence of PONV and oculocardiac reflex (OCR) and compare Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) with Surgical Pleth Index (SPI) for monitoring pain perception postoperatively. Patients received general anaesthesia alone or combined with either preemptive analgesia using topical solution of 0,5% proxymetacaine or peribulbar block (0,5% bupivacaine with 2% lidokaine) or preemptive intravenous infusion of 1,0 g of metamizol or preemptive intravenous infusion of acetaminophen in a doseof 10-15mg/kg of body weight.
Detailed description
Monitoring depth of anaesthesia using spectral entropy (SE) and quality of neuromuscular block are routine in modern anaesthesia, whereas monitoring of analgesia still requires further studies. Recently, the Surgical Pleth Index (SPI) was added as a surrogate variable showing the nociception-antinociception balance into abovementioned parametres constituting a novel approach in monitoring patients intraoperatively, known as adequacy of anaesthesia (AoA) or tailor-made anaesthesia.
Interventions
in group A patients will receive pre-emptive analgesia using intravenous infusion of metamizol in a single dose of 1-1,25 gram
in group P patients will receive pre-emptive analgesia using intravenous infusion of acetaminophen in a single dose of 10-15 mg per kg of body weight
in group PBB patients in group BF will receive regional peribulbar block using a solution of 0,5% bupivacaine (2,5 ml) with 2% lidocaine (2,5 ml)
in group T patients will receive topical analgesia using a solution of 0,5% Alcaine

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| pain perception intraoperatively | intraoperatively | The investigators will compare the efficacy of analgesia intraoperatively according to technique of analgesia used preoperatively. The investigators will administer a rescue dose of fentanyl intravenously in a dose of 1 mcg per kg of body weight in the case when SPI value increases over 15 points in SPI scale every 5 minutes until SPI value decreases back to baseline value. Additionally, the investigators will analyse rescue fentanyl consumption in abovementioned groups |
| oculocardiac reflex rate | intraoperatively | The investigators will compare the rate of presence of OCR intraoperatively in studied groups |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| pain perception postoperatively | up to one hour after discharge to postoperative unit. | The investigators will compare the efficacy of analgesia postoperatively according to technique of analgesia used preoperatively: either local peribulbar block or topical analgesia or intravenous infusion of either metamizol or acetaminophen. The investigators use NRS and compare it with SPI values. |
| PONV | up to one hour | The investigators will compare the presence of PONV after emergence from GA in studied groups. The investigators will observe patients postoperatively and record any incidence of nausea or vomiting and in the abovementioned case the investigators will administer a standard dose of antiemetic drug. |
