Résumé

It has been suggested that intraoperative electroencephalographic (EEG) burst suppression (BSupp) may be associated with post-operative neurocognitive disorders in the elderly, and EEG-guided anaesthesia may help to reduce BSupp. Despite of this suggestion, a standard treatment does not exist, as we have yet to fully understand the phenomenon and its underlying pathomechanism. This study was designed to address two underlying phenomena-cerebral hypoperfusion and individual anaesthetic overdose. We aimed to demonstrate that targeted anaesthetic interventions-treating intraoperative hypotension and/or reducing the anaesthetic concentration-reduce BSupp. We randomly assigned patients to receive EEG-based interventions during anaesthesia or EEG-blinded standard anaesthesia. If BSupp was detected, defined as burst suppression ratio (BSR) > 0, the primary intervention aimed to adjust the mean arterial blood pressure to patient baseline (MAP intervention) followed by reduction of anaesthetic concentration (MAC intervention). EEG-based intervention significantly reduced total cumulative BSR, BSR duration, and maximum BSR. MAP intervention caused a significant MAP increase at the end of a BSR > 0 episode compared to the control group. Coincidentally, the maximum BSR decreased significantly; in 55% of all MAP interventions, the BSR decreased to 0% without any further action. In the remaining events, additional MAC intervention was required. Our results show that targeted interventions (MAC/MAP) reduce total cumulative amount, duration, and maximum BSR > 0 in the elderly undergoing general anaesthesia. Haemodynamic intervention already interrupted or reduced BSupp, strengthening the current reflections that hypotension-induced cerebral hypoperfusion may be seen as potential pathomechanism of intraoperative BSupp. NCT03775356 [ClinicalTrials.gov], DRKS00015839 [German Clinical Trials Register (Deutsches Register klinischer Studien, DRKS)].

Background UNASSIGNED
It has been suggested that intraoperative electroencephalographic (EEG) burst suppression (BSupp) may be associated with post-operative neurocognitive disorders in the elderly, and EEG-guided anaesthesia may help to reduce BSupp. Despite of this suggestion, a standard treatment does not exist, as we have yet to fully understand the phenomenon and its underlying pathomechanism. This study was designed to address two underlying phenomena-cerebral hypoperfusion and individual anaesthetic overdose.
Objectives UNASSIGNED
We aimed to demonstrate that targeted anaesthetic interventions-treating intraoperative hypotension and/or reducing the anaesthetic concentration-reduce BSupp.
Methods UNASSIGNED
We randomly assigned patients to receive EEG-based interventions during anaesthesia or EEG-blinded standard anaesthesia. If BSupp was detected, defined as burst suppression ratio (BSR) > 0, the primary intervention aimed to adjust the mean arterial blood pressure to patient baseline (MAP intervention) followed by reduction of anaesthetic concentration (MAC intervention).
Results UNASSIGNED
EEG-based intervention significantly reduced total cumulative BSR, BSR duration, and maximum BSR. MAP intervention caused a significant MAP increase at the end of a BSR > 0 episode compared to the control group. Coincidentally, the maximum BSR decreased significantly; in 55% of all MAP interventions, the BSR decreased to 0% without any further action. In the remaining events, additional MAC intervention was required.
Conclusion UNASSIGNED
Our results show that targeted interventions (MAC/MAP) reduce total cumulative amount, duration, and maximum BSR > 0 in the elderly undergoing general anaesthesia. Haemodynamic intervention already interrupted or reduced BSupp, strengthening the current reflections that hypotension-induced cerebral hypoperfusion may be seen as potential pathomechanism of intraoperative BSupp.
Clinical Trial Registration UNASSIGNED
NCT03775356 [ClinicalTrials.gov], DRKS00015839 [German Clinical Trials Register (Deutsches Register klinischer Studien, DRKS)].
