Comparison of dose requirement of propofol with and without bispectral monitoring in patients undergoing spinal epidural anaesthesia: An institutional based study
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Clinical Anaesthesia - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Introduction Sedative protocols are a topic of current research especially for establishment of extensive monitoring systems for sedative agents Bispectral index BIS is one of the main indicators for measuring the anaesthesia depth Hence present study was planned to comparatively assess the dose requirement of propofol with and without bispectral monitoring in patients scheduled to undergo spinal epidural anaesthesiaMaterials and Methods We planned the present research to comparatively assess the dose requirement of propofol with and without bispectral monitoring in subjects scheduled to undergo spinal epidural anaesthesia For the present study we evaluated a total of 60 patients and broadly divided them into group 1 and group 2 based on the absence and presence of BIS monitoring respectively We maintained and compiled the complete demographic clinical and anaesthetic data of all the patients and analyzed the results by SPSS softwareResults While comparing the average time needed for reaching the adequate level of sedation in between the two study groups significant results were obtained We also obtained significant results while comparing the average recovery time in between subjects of both the study groupsConclusion For assessing the level of sedation in regional anaesthesia cases BIS monitoring should be doneKeywords Bispectral monitoring Propofol Spinal anaesthesia
