Bispectral Index as an Analgesia Monitoring in Severely Ill Patient: Effect of Remifentanyl

This study is currently recruiting participants.

Official Title:   Bispectral Index as an Analgesia Monitoring in Severely Ill Patient: Effect of Remifentanyl

Further study details as provided by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • BIS variation during bronchoalveolar lavage

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, heart rate viation

Estimated Enrollment:   40
Study Start Date:   October 2004

Detailed Description:

Pain is difficult to estimate in ICU because most of the patients are sedated. Bispectral index could be helpful in detecting this pain in ICU patients. Remifentanil is a morphinomimetic product with short half life that could be interesting for short nociceptive stimuli, as bronchoalveolar lavage.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of remifentanil infusion on bispectral index (BIS) variations during bronchoalveolar lavage.

It is a prospective, double blind study, versus placebo on 40 sedated and critically ill patients.

The hypothesis is that BIS can study analgesia in sedated patient.
