Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the values of Surgical Pleth Index (SPI) and Nociception Level Index (NOL) measured simultaneously during cardiac surgery.
Detailed description
Participants are given oral and written information about the course of the trial, associated risks and benefits and about the handling of the personal data on the day before the surgery by one of the investigators. Participants are also given written information about patient's rights and insurance, the aim of the trial and its course. 40 adult cardiac surgery patients will be recruited for the study. NOL and SPI values will be measured during the cardiac surgery procedure. All patients receive oral premedication and standardized anesthesia.
Interventions
Patient is connected to non-invasive PMD-200 monitor, measuring Nociception Level
Patient is connected to non-invasive monitor measuring Surgical Pleth Index

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| SPI values measured at several timepoints during cardiac surgery | Values are measured during the course of the cardiac surgery procedure | SPI (Surgical Pleth Index) - index measuring nociceptive response based on pulse and pulse amplitude. |
| NOL values measured at several timepoints during cardiac surgery | Values are measured during the course of the cardiac surgery procedure | NOL (Nociception Level Index) - nociception index based on heart rate and its changes, pulse wave amplitude, skin impedance and its changes, temperature and their variations |
