Lee C, Lee C, Lim J, Park J, Jung J, Lee H, Lee M. The Relationship between Pre-Anesthetic Analgesia and Nociception (ANI) and Propofol Injection Pain among Patients Receiving Remifentanil: A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Study. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2024; 60:273. [PMID: 38399560 PMCID: PMC10889958 DOI: 10.3390/medicina60020273] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 01/31/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: The analgesia/nociception index (ANI) potentially monitors nociceptive status during anesthesia, but its link to preoperative pain sensitivity is unclear. We investigated the relationship between pre-anesthetic ANI scores and propofol injection pain (PIP) in patients receiving remifentanil. Materials and Methods: This study included 124 male patients aged 19-60 undergoing general anesthesia (ASA class I or II). Patients were randomized to group R (n = 62, remifentanil 4 ng/mL) or group C (n = 62, saline). The primary outcome was the association between PIP and ANI. Secondary outcomes included the incidence and severity of PIP or rocuronium-induced withdrawal movement (RIWM) and their association with ANI. Results: PIP and RIWM incidence and severity were lower in group R than in group C. A weak negative correlation between PIP and ANI at pre-induction (rpb = -0.21, p = 0.02, rpb = -0.37, p < 0.01) and a moderate negative correlation during propofol injection (rpb = -0.48, p = 0.02) were observed. A significant negative correlation was found between RIWM and ANI during rocuronium injection (τb = -0.61, p < 0.01). AUC, cut-off value, specificity, and sensitivity in ANI at pre-induction for predicting PIP were 0.67 (p = 0.02), 59, 76%, and 55%, respectively. AUC, cut-off value, specificity, and sensitivity in ANI during propofol injection for PIP were 0.77 (p < 0.01), 65, 81%, and 67%, respectively. Conclusions: ANI scores demonstrated significant differences between groups, suggesting potential predictive value for PIP despite the low pre-induction AUC value. This study highlights the potential of using ANI scores to predict and manage PIP in patients receiving remifentanil.

Comparison between Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) and self-reported measures for diagnosing pain in conscious individuals: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Sci Rep 2022; 12:2862.

Abstract
The Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI), an objective measure of pain based on heart rate variability (HRV), has its usefulness in awake patients still unclear. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess ANI's accuracy compared to self-reported pain measures in conscious individuals undergoing medical procedures or painful stimuli. PubMed, Ovid, Web of Science, Scopus, Embase, and grey literature were searched until March 2021. Of the 832 identified citations, 16 studies complied with the eligibility criteria. A meta-analysis including nine studies demonstrated a weak negative correlation between ANI and NRS for pain assessment in individuals in the post-anesthetic recovery room (r = − 0.0984, 95% CI = − 0.397 to 0.220, I2 = 95.82%), or in those submitted to electrical stimulus (r = − 0.089; 95% CI = − 0.390 to 0.228, I2 = 0%). The evidence to use ANI in conscious individuals is weak compared to self-report measures of pain, yet ANI explains a part of self-report. Therefore, some individuals may be benefited from the use of ANI during procedures or in the immediate postoperative period.

Abstract
The intraoperative dosing of opioids is a challenge in routine anesthesia as the potential effects of intraoperative overdosing and underdosing are not completely understood. In recent years an increasing number of monitors were approved, which were developed for the detection of intraoperative nociception and therefore should enable a better control of opioid titration. The nociception monitoring devices use either continuous hemodynamic, galvanic or thermal biosignals reflecting the balance between parasympathetic and sympathetic activity, measure the pupil dilatation reflex or the nociceptive flexor reflex as a reflexive response to application of standardized nociceptive stimulation. This review article presents the currently available nociception monitors. Most of these monitoring devices detect nociceptive stimulations with higher sensitivity and specificity than changes in heart rate, blood pressure or sedation depth monitoring devices. There are only few studies on the effect of opioid titration guided by nociception monitoring and the possible postoperative benefits of these devices. All nociception monitoring techniques are subject to specific limitations either due to perioperative confounders (e.g. hypovolemia) or special accompanying medical conditions (e.g. muscle relaxation). There is an ongoing discussion about the clinical relevance of nociceptive stimulation in general anesthesia and the effect on patient outcome. Initial results for individual monitor systems show a reduction in opioid consumption and in postoperative pain level. Nevertheless, current evidence does not enable the routine use of nociception monitoring devices to be recommended as a clear beneficial effect on long-term outcome has not yet been proven.

Abstract
Various commercially available nociception devices have been developed to quantify intraoperative pain. The Surgical Pleth Index (SPI) and Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) are among the analgesic indices that have been widely used for the evaluation of surgical patients. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical performance of the SPI and ANI in conscious healthy volunteers and parturients. Ten healthy volunteers and 10 parturients participated in this study. An algometer was used to induce bone pain in the volunteers until they rated their pain as five on the numerical rating scale (NRS); this procedure was repeated during the administration of remifentanil or normal saline. The study comprised two periods, and the volunteers were infused with different solutions in each period: normal saline during one period and remifentanil during the other in a randomized order. The parturients’ SPI and ANI data were collected for 2 min when they rated their pain levels as 0, 5, and 7 on the NRS, respectively. Both the SPI and ANI values differed significantly between NRS 0 and NRS 5 (P < 0.001) in the volunteers, irrespective of the solution administered (remifentanil or normal saline). At NRS 5, the SPI showed similar values, irrespective of remifentanil administration, while the ANI showed significantly lower values on remifentanil administration (P = 0.028). The SPI and ANI values at NRS 5 and NRS 7 did not differ significantly in the parturients (P = 0.101 for SPI, P = 0.687 for ANI). Thus, the SPI and ANI were effective indices for detecting pain in healthy volunteers and parturients.

Abstract
Measuring the level of analgesia to adapt the opioids infusion during anesthesia to the real needs of the patient is still a challenge. This is a consequence of the absence of a specific measure capable of quantifying the nociception level of the patients. Unlike existing proposals, this paper aims to evaluate the suitability of the Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) as a guidance variable to replicate the decisions made by the experts when a modification of the opioid infusion rate is required. To this end, different machine learning classifiers were trained with several sets of clinical features. Data for training were captured from 17 patients undergoing cholecystectomy surgery. Satisfactory results were obtained when including information about minimum values of ANI for predicting a change of dose. Specifically, a higher efficiency of the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier was observed compared with the situation in which the ANI index was not included: accuracy: 86.21% (83.62%-87.93%), precision: 86.11% (83.78%-88.57%), recall: 91.18% (88.24%-91.18%), specificity: 79.17% (75%-83.33%), AUC: 0.89 (0.87-0.90) and kappa index: 0.71 (0.66-0.75). The results of this research evidenced that including information about the minimum values of ANI together with the hemodynamic information outperformed the decisions made regarding only non-specific traditional signs such as heart rate and blood pressure. In addition, the analysis of the results showed that including the ANI monitor in the decision making process may anticipate a dose change to prevent hemodynamic events. Finally, the SVM was able to perform accurate predictions when making different decisions commonly observed in the clinical practice.

Abstract
Nociception, in contrast to pain, is not a subjective feeling, but the physiological encoding and processing of nociceptive stimuli. However, monitoring nociception remains a challenge in attempts to lower the incidence of acute postoperative pain and the move towards a more automated approach to analgesia and anaesthesia. To date, several commercialised devices promise a more accurate reflection of nociception than the traditionally used vital signs, blood pressure and heart rate. This narrative review presents an overview of existing technologies and commercially available devices, and offers a perspective for future research. Although firm conclusions about individual methods may be premature, none currently appears to offer a sufficiently broad applicability. Furthermore, there is currently no firm evidence for any clinically relevant influence of such devices on patient outcome. However, the available monitors have significantly aided the understanding of underlying mechanisms and identification of potential pitfalls.

Abstract
Background: The clinical efficacy of fentanyl for pain control differs greatly across individuals. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of CYP3A4*1G polymorphism including wild-type homozygote (CYP3A4*1/*1, GG), mutant heterozygote (CYP3A4*1/*1G, GA), and mutant homozygote (CYP3A4*1G/*1G, AA) on fentanyl analgesia in Chinese patients undergoing hysteroscopy by the assessment of analgesia nociception index (ANI). Methods: A total of 200 gynecologic patients scheduled for elective hysteroscopy under general anesthesia at Peking University People's Hospital from May to December in 2017 were enrolled in this study. Venous blood was withdrawn for genotyping of CYP3A4*1G before operation. Fentanyl 1 μg/kg was administered preoperatively followed by target-controlled infusion of propofol for induction and maintenance. Intraoperative analgesic efficacy of fentanyl was assessed by ANI monitoring at T0 (entering room), T1 (cervical dilation), T2 (start of cervical aspiration), and T3 (end of cervical aspiration) time points. The duration of propofol infusion and total dosage of propofol were recorded as well. Results: The patients were divided into three groups according to CYP3A4*1G polymorphism, including 143 in GG group, 47 in GA group, and 10 in AA group. There was no significant difference in clinical demographics among three groups. The frequency of CYP3A4*1G variant alleles accounted for 16.8% and the distribution of variant alleles was consistent with Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium. Using a multilevel model, ANI values at T1 (63.81 ± 19.61), T2 (63.63 ± 17.82), and T3 (65.68 ± 17.79) were significantly lower than that at T0 (77.16 ± 12.93) in the study population (F = 23.50, P < 0.001), suggesting that higher levels of pain at T1, T2, and T3 than T0. Patients with GG genotype showed significantly lower ANI than those with GA or AA genotypes during hysteroscopy under the same dose of fentanyl. Conclusion: CYP3A4*1G polymorphism associated with the analgesic efficacy of intraoperative fentanyl in the patients undergoing hysteroscopy under general anesthesia.

Br J Anaesth 2019; 123:e322-e327.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Potential methods for objective assessment of postoperative pain include the Analgesia Nociception Index™ (ANI), a real-time index of the parasympathetic tone, the pupillary light reflex (PLR), and the variation coefficient of pupillary diameter (VCPD), a measure of pupillary diameter (PD) fluctuations. Until now, the literature is divided as to their respective accuracy magnitudes for assessing a patient's pain. The VCPD has been demonstrated to strongly correlate with pain in an obstetrical population. However, the pain induced by obstetrical labour is different, given its intermittent nature, than the pain observed during the postoperative period. The aim of the current study was to compare the respective values of these variables at VAS scores ≥4. METHODS After approval by the Ethics Committee, 345 patients aged on average 50 (SD 17) yr (range: 18-91 yr) of age were included. The protocols of general anaesthesia and postoperative analgesia were left to the anaesthetist's discretion. Some 40 min after tracheal intubation, VAS, ANI, PD, PLR, and VCPD values were recorded. RESULTS VCPD correlates more strongly (r=0.78) with pain as assessed with the VAS than ANI (r=-0.15). PD and PLR are not statistically correlated with VAS. The ability of VCPD to assess the pain of patients (VAS≥4) is strong [area under the curve (AUC): 0.92, confidence interval (CI): 0.89-0.95], and better than for ANI (AUC: 0.39, CI: 0.33-0.45). CONCLUSIONS Our study suggests that VCPD could be a useful tool for monitoring pain in conscious patients during the postoperative period. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NCT03267979.
