Clinical Trial Summary

The investigators aim to investigate whether administration of a short-acting opioid (remifentanil) guided by a pain monitor (nociceptive level monitor) during anesthesia, can reduce pain in children after surgery. The investigators hypothesize that pain monitor-guided administration of remifentanil can reduce pain postoperatively compared with standard care.


Clinical Trial Description

NOL-guided analgesia has not previously been assessed in children, and it is unknown whether this additional monitoring has any clinical benefits in a pediatric population. In the present study the investigators aim to investigate whether administration of perioperative remifentanil guided by the CE-certified Pain Monitoring Device monitor-PMD200™, also called NOL-monitor, can reduce pain (primary endpoint), opioid consumption and agitation in children aged 3-16 years undergoing surgery with intravenous anesthesia. The investigators hypothesize that NOL-guided perioperative remifentanil administration can reduce postoperative pain compared with standard clinical care (remifentanil dosing based on hemodynamic variables). All patients will receive standard analgesia and antiemetic administered perioperatively: - IV paracetamol 15 mg/kg - IV Ibuprofen 10 mg/kg, unless contraindicated - IV Morphine 25-100 μg/kg according to the extent of surgery and the departments' standard, administered 30 minutes before end of surgery (will not be included in the total perioperative or postoperative opioid consumption) - In case of minor surgery, 1-2 μg/kg fentanyl, according to the department's standard, may be administered instead of morphine at the discretion of the anesthetist (will not be included in the total perioperative or postoperative opioid consumption) - Regional anesthesia may be provided at the discretion of the anesthetist - IV ondansetron 100 μg/kg ;
