Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The study will evaluate the feasibility of Nonin SenSmart H500 device to measuring brain oxygenation during prehospital anesthesia of adult patient. The study also estimates the incidence of cerebral hypoxic events of anesthetized patients during prehospital care. The study does not affect the treatment of the patient. The study is pilot study and will be followed with a main study to assess the association between cerebral oxygenation during prehospital care and outcome of the patient.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) monitoring of cerebral oxygenation

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Disturbance-free time of the total monitoring time [Prehospital phase]

    Proportion of time with readable monitor signal of the total time monitor connected to the patient

  2. Cerebral desaturation events [During prehospital phase after induction of anesthesia]

    Number of patients with forehead regional oxygen saturation ≤50% for ≥5 minutes

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. On-scene time [Prehospital phase]

    Time from arrival of helicopter emergency medical services unit on the patient to beginning of transportation

  2. Qualitative feedback from HEMS crews [Prehospital phase]

    Comments on the usability of the study device

  3. Survival [30 days, 12 months]

    Data from population registry center

  4. Neurologic disability [30 days, 12 months]

    3-6 on modified Rankin scale (range from 0 [no symptoms at all] to 6 [dead], evaluated by trained research nurse

  5. Health related quality of life [12 months]

    total score of 15-D questionnaire including 15 dimensions each ranked from 1 (good quality of life) to 5 (poor quality of life)
