Comparison of anesthesia effects between closed-loop and open-loop target controlled infusion of propofol using the bispectral index in abdominal surgery.

OBJECTIVES: Bispectral index (BIS) can reflect the depth of propofol sedation. This study aims to compare the anesthetic satisfaction, anesthetic dose, and hemodynamic changes between closed-loop target controlled infusion (CLTCI) and open-loop target controlled infusion (OLTCI) during abdominal surgery. METHODS: =35). The CLTCI group received propofol CLTCI, and the target BIS value was set between 45 to 55; in the OLTCI group, the plasma target concentration was adjusted to maintain the BIS value between 40 to 60. Both groups were given remifentanil by target controlled infusion, and the plasma target concentration was 6.0 ng/mL. The percentages of adequate anesthesia time, deep anesthesia time, and light anesthesia time were calculated. The total induction dose of propofol, continuous infusion dose of propofol, predicted target propofol concentration of effect chamber, and continuous infusion dose of remifentanil were calculated. The times of automatic adjustment of propofol concentration in closed-loop system and manual adjustment of propofol concentration in the OLTCI group were recorded. Hemodynamic indexes were recorded, and the percentage of target mean arterial pressure (MAP) maintenance time and target heart rate (HR) maintenance time were calculated. Anesthesia time, operation time, recovery time, and extubation time were compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS: >0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Compared with propofol OLTCI, anesthesia with propofol CLTCI under BIS guidance can maintain a more appropriate depth of anesthesia sedation and more stable hemodynamics.
