Abstract
BACKGROUND
Monitoring of "Depth of anesthesia" is an ongoing problem in anaesthesia. In this study, the author has compared the bispectral index (BIS) and Anemon monitor for monitoring depth of anesthesia in propofol or isoflurane anesthesia.
METHODS
Anemon-1 and BIS index were obtained from 24 patients (ASA I, II) during general anesthesia with propofol or isoflurane. For patients in the propofol group, anesthesia was induced with fentanyl 100ng followed by propofol 2 mg/Kg. For patients in the isoflurane group, anesthesia was induced with thiopental 5 mg/Kg. The author observed changes of these values at 5 major times: before induction, during induction, after induction, at sKin incision, before extubation, after extubation.
RESULTS
The anemon index showed a significant increase during induction (propofol group: 86.9 +/- 26.4, isoflurane group: 106.0 +/- 18.6) and at sKin incision (propofol group: 89.9 +/- 22.7, isoflurane group: 92.0 +/- 23.1), but this did not correlate with the level of consciousness. The BIS index showed a significant decrease in the score after induction (propofol group: 55.0 +/- 9.6, isoflurane group: 61.0 +/- 17.2), but no response to surgical stimuli.
CONCLUSIONS
BIS had a good correlation with level of consciousness. The Anemon-1 index was recognized to reflect invasive stimulus. As the BIS and Anemon-1 had no correlation, it was not possible to assume changes of each index from the other. Both the anemon-1 index and BIS are useful to monitor the anesthesia level during surgery.
