Brief summary

No trials have evaluated the effect of a Midazolam bolus (routinely used for premedication before general anesthesia) on the Concnetration at the effector site of Propofol (CeP) of Eleveld and Schnider TCI models, routinely used for general anesthesia delivery.

Detailed description

During recent years Eleveld and colleagues ideated a new propofol pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) model for total intravenous anaesthesia with target controlled infusion (TIVA-TCI) pumps that has been proposed to have slightly better predictive performance for measured propofol plasma concentrations compared with those of the Marsh and Schnider models, and suitable for children, adults, older subjects, and obese adults, being considered as a General purpose model. However, no trials have compared the Eleveld to the Schnidermodel after a premedication with Midazolam bolus (0.03 mg/kg) from a clinical point of view; so, this study aimed toevaluate midazolam effect on the estimated effector site concentration of the two models (CePE and CePS, respectively) at loss of responsiveness (LoR), during anaesthesia maintenance (Bispectral Index \[BIS\] 40-60) and return of responsiveness (RoR). The study also compared the incidence of deepening or superficializing anaesthesia (defined respectively as lowering or increasing in out-of-target BIS after initial CeP detection), as well as unwanted anaesthesia events: burst suppression (BSupp, identified as a burst suppression ratio \[BSR\] \>0) and unwanted spontaneous responsiveness.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Correlation between Concentration at the effector site of Propofol after MidazolamWe will collected data about Drugs concentration and BIS values during general anaesthesia. We will collect BIS and TCI Propofol values during all the duration of anesthesia, form the start of midazolam bolus until the emergence from anesthesiaDiscover if, after astandard premedication with midazolam bolus, there are differences between Concentrations at the effector site of Propofol using the Eleveld TCI model versus Schnider TCI model, during standard general anaesthesia conducted with Propofol and remifenatnil delivered with targeted controlled infusion pumps, usually adopted in our Hospital to delivery general anaesthesia
