About this study

Official title: The Influence of Age on EEG Signals and Consciousness During Anesthesia (TIARA)

This is a prospective, multi-center, non-invasive, interventional, data collection study to improve the current BIS algorithm in the elderly adult population.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, multi-center, non-invasive, interventional, data collection study to improve the current BIS algorithm in the elderly adult population. The BIS system will be used on-label as approved in the respective study site countries to monitor and non-invasively measure and interpret brain wave activity directly related to the effects of anesthetic agents. The study's purpose is to evaluate the relationship between BIS parameters, age, and depth of anesthesia in patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Bispectral (BIS™) Complete Monitoring SystemDevice

    The BIS™ Complete Monitoring System is a user-configurable patient monitoring system designed to monitor the hypnotic state of the brain based on the acquisition and processing of EEG signals. The BIS technology converts raw EEG data acquired from the frontal cortex into a single number to measure the level of consciousness, called the BIS index. A bilateral sensor is to be placed on the patient's forehead to collect the EEG signals and transmit them back to the system.

Study groups in NCT04765046
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
BIS™ SystemOtherEnrolled subjects who are undergoing a standard of care elective surgery under general anesthesia, will be equipped with the BIS system to non-invasively measure and interpret brain waive activity directly related to the effects of anesthetic agents during the surgery duration.
Receives: Device: Bispectral (BIS™) Complete Monitoring System

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. BIS50

    The Bispectral Index (BIS) value, a scale 0-100 with 0 being no brain activity and 100 being fully conscious, at which 50% of subjects are anesthetized at a level they are considered uncounscious based on the MOAA/S score of 0-2

    Measured: 8 hours
