Clinical Trial Summary

Total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) has emerged as a viable alternative to inhalational general anaesthesia (GA). Propofol is the preferred drug for providing TIVA due to its favorable pharmacokinetic profile, such as, rapid onset of action and a short context sensitivity half -life. There is suggestion that consumption of Propofol required during TIVA is influenced by gender with females requiring higher dose due to higher volume of distribution of drug. The evidence on gender differences in Propofol requirement for TIVA is largely based on studies done using subjective (manual titration of infusions)/semi-objective (target-controlled infusions) methods of drug administration, whose initial setting and ongoing control may be affected by attending anesthesiologist discretion and action. A recent advance in Propofol TIVA delivery is development of objective automated anaesthesia delivery systems. These systems administer Propofol titrated to patients' electroencephalogram (EEG) response reflected by processed EEG monitoring, namely the Bispectral index (BIS). One such indigenously developed automated anaesthesia delivery system is the closed-loop anaesthesia delivery system (CLADS). CLADS is a more precise and robust system to facilitate administration of Propofol TIVA, which automatically regulates the dose of medication based on feedback from patient's BIS data. The present study proposes to explore if there can be any gender differences in Propofol requirements during total intravenous anaesthesia administered by CLADS. All patients undergoing elective surgery under Propofol TIVA using CLADS will be screened, and those eligible will be enrolled. Enrolled patients will receive automated Propofol TIVA using CLADS. Demographic and clinical details including gender of patient will be noted. Cumulative dose of Propofol use will be computed through algorithm executed and monitored by software built into the CLADS. The findings will then be compared between male and female gender. Other intraoperative and post- operative outcomes such as time-to-loss of consciousness, time-to-induction of anaesthesia, anaesthesia depth consistency, performance characteristic of CLADS, hemodynamic profile (heart rate, mean arterial blood pressure), time-to-early recovery from anaesthesia, and postoperative sedation scale (modified observers' assessment of alertness/sedation scale [MOAA/S]); will be noted and compared between males and females. We expect to enroll 80 patients in our study.


Description:

Total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) has emerged as a viable alternative to inhalational general anaesthesia (GA). Progress into TIVA is much desirable for continued development of precision GA. To this effect, Propofol is a key intravenous agent because of its favorable pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profile and broad administration applicability with different methods of delivery: manual and target-controlled infusion [TCI]. The evidence on gender differences during manual/TCI Propofol TIVA suggests that females as compared to males have increased requirement of Propofol and yet have a faster time to recovery from anaesthesia. A 5-10% excess body fat and 15-20% decreased water content in females as compared to males' results in an increase in volume of distribution (Vd) of lipophilic drugs (e.g., Propofol), which consequently necessitates a higher rate of delivery of the Propofol infusion to achieve the same plasma concentration (as males) for clinically acceptable depth-of-anaesthesia. Whereas an increased Propofol sensitivity results in early awakening from anaesthesia. The studies on gender differences in Propofol requirements and recovery from anaesthesia are largely based on semi-objective methods of Propofol TIVA administration (manual/TCI). The human element in titration and control of manual/TCI delivery of Propofol TIVA in above studies may be a limiting and a confounding factor in interpretating the actual difference induced by the 'gender' context. Whilst processed electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring (Bispectral index [BIS], entropy, Narcotrend®) facilitates control of Propofol TIVA; it may still be imprecise due to subjective differences in understanding and execution of Propofol TIVA. A recent advance in Propofol TIVA delivery is the development of automated anaesthesia delivery systems such as closed loop anaesthesia delivery system (CLADS). These systems administer Propofol actuated, titrated, and controlled by patients' processed electroencephalogram (EEG) response as generated by continuously monitored bispectral index (BIS) score. Current evidence suggests that automated Propofol TIVA delivery systems such as closed loop anaesthesia delivery system (CLADS) facilitate precision administration of Propofol than its TCI/manual counterparts. Despite a plethora of evidence on effectiveness of Propofol TIVA, gender differences in Propofol PK and PD have not been evaluated while using automated systems of delivery. With the premise that widely researched and precise automated closed-loop anaesthesia delivery system (CLADS) has clear advantages (lower 'operator' dependence and inclusion of 'patient' factor) over manual/TCI mode; it is likely that Propofol TIVA administered by CLADS will lend greater objectivity in qualifying and quantifying the inter-gender differences in Propofol consumption and recovery from anaesthesia. The proposed observational study is planned to explore the gender differences in Propofol consumption and recovery from anaesthesia following CLADS controlled Propofol TIVA.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Cumulative Propofol consumption (mg/kg/h) during anaesthesia Dose of Propofol required for induction and maintenance of anesthesia From start of Propofol injection 10-hours intraoperatively]
