STIMNOL: NoL Index Response to Stimulation in Anesthetized Children
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The Nociception Level (NoL) is an index obtained via a non-invasive monitor, that is currently used to assess nociception in anesthetized adults. The NoL index varies from 0 to 100. It increases in response to nociceptive stimuli. The objective of this study was to investigate if the NoL index also indicates the level of nociception in anesthetized children. In children anesthetized according to standard practice, before surgical incision, three 5-seconds stimulations will be performed with different intensities (10, 30 and 60 milliamps). The order of the stimulations intensities will be randomized. The hypothesis of study is that the intensity of stimulation will influence the magnitude of NoL-index increase in response to the stimulation.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- NoL variation = [(Maximal NoL value in the 5 minutes following the stimulation) - (NoL before stimulation)] / [NoL before stimulation] [5 minutes after stimulation]
NoL variation = [(Maximal NoL value in the 5 minutes following the stimulation) - (NoL before stimulation)] / [NoL before stimulation]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) variation [5 minutes after stimulation]
SBP variation = [(Maximal SBP value in the 5 minutes following the stimulation) - (SBP before stimulation)] / [SBP before stimulation]
- Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) variation [5 minutes after stimulation]
ANI variation = [(ANI before stimulation - (Minimal ANI value in the 5 minutes following the stimulation)] / [ANI before stimulation]
