- Bispectral index-guided administration of anaesthesia: comparison between remifentanil/propofol and remifentanil/isoflurane.
- Abstract:
- BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The bispectral index of the electroencephalogram is a measure of the hypnotic component of anaesthesia and can be used to guide the administration of anaesthesia. This study compares bispectral index-guided anaesthesia with remifentanil and either propofol or isoflurane. METHODS: Eighty consenting patients were randomly assigned to two groups. Following induction with propofol and remifentanil, anaesthesia was maintained with remifentanil/propofol or remifentanil/isoflurane. Remifentanil infusion rates were guided by haemodynamic responses--maintaining mean arterial pressure and heart rate within 20% of baseline. Propofol and isoflurane administration was guided using the bispectral index (45-60). Thirty minutes before the end of surgery, morphine was administered (0.15 mg kg(-1) intravenously). Fifteen minutes before end of surgery, propofol and isoflurane were reduced (bispectral index 60-75). At the end of surgery, the anaesthetic agents were discontinued. Groups were compared for recovery, remifentanil doses and signs of inadequate anaesthesia using the chi2-test and ANOVA (P < 0.05). RESULTS: The duration of surgery was longer in the propofol/remifentanil group (121 +/- 53 versus 94 +/- 40 min). Recovery data were not different between groups. The remifentanil infusion rate was significantly lower with additional isoflurane (0.18 +/- 0.06 microg kg(-1) min(-1)) than with additional propofol (0.31 +/- 0.20 microg kg(-1) min(-1)). The propofol infusion rate was 123 +/- 48 microg kg(-1) min(-1); isoflurane concentration was 0.66 +/- 0.13%. CONCLUSIONS: Bispectral index-guided anaesthesia with remifentanil plus propofol or isoflurane results in the absence of postoperative recall and a fast recovery with both drug combinations. In our patients, at comparable bispectral index-levels, haemodynamic control requires higher doses of remifentanil with propofol than with isoflurane.
