Objective To compare the accuracy of BIS and skin conductance (SC) for assessment of the depth of sedation induced by target-controlled infusion (TCI) of propofol. Methods Thirty ASA Ⅰ orⅡpatients aged 21-56 yr weighing 52-85 kg undergoing orthopedic operation on the lower limb under epidural anesthesia were enrolled in this study.After the onset of epidural anesthesia, TCI of propofol was started at an initial target plasma concentration (Cp) of 0.8 μg/ml. Th Cp was increased by 0.5-0.8 μg/ml every 3 min until OAA/S score=1. OAA/S score, BIS and SC values were recorded, SC change value (△SC) was calculated. Spearman rank-order correlation, receiver operating characteristic curve (area under curve AUC was calculated) and logistic regression were used to analyze the relationship of OAA/S score to BIS and △SC.Results BIS and △SC were significantly correlated with OAA/S scores (r were 0.920 and-0.859 respectively). The AUC of △SC (0.919, 0.946) was significantly better correlated with OAA/S score (5→4, 4→3) than that of BIS (0.761, 0.507), while BIS was better correlated (0.781, 0.959) with OAA/S score (3→2, 2→1) than ASC (0.577, 0.630). Logistic regression correctly predicted loss of consciousness. The accuracy of prediction was 93% for BIS and 82% for △SC. Conclusion The accuracy of SC for assessment of the depth of sedation induced by propofol TCI ishigher than that of BIS before loss of consciousness,while lower than that of BIS after loss of consciousness. BIS is more accurate in monitoring the loss of consciousness.

Objective To investigate the effect of rocuronium on spectral entropy during induction of general anesthesia in patients of Uygur nstionality. Methods Forty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients (Uygur nationality) of both sexes, aged 20-50 yr, weighing 45-70 kg, undergoing elective surgery under general anesthesia, were divided into 2 groups ( n = 20 each): normal saline (NS) group and rocuronium group (group R). Anesthesia was induced with target-controlled infusion of propofol. The initial target plasma concentration wan net at 2 μg/ml. The concentration wan then increased by 0.5 μg/ml every 4 min until response entropy (RE) was decreased to 45 and maintained for 4 min. When the plasma concentration was equal to the effect-site concentration, iv rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg was injected in group R, while group NS received the equal volume of NS instead. Fentanyl 3 μg/kg was injected intravenously at 3 min after recuronium administration. The patients were tracheal intubated and mechanically ventilated. State entropy (SE) and RE were recorded immediately before induction (baseline, To), before rocuronium administration (T1), 2 main after rocuronium administration (T2) and at 0, 1, 2 and 3 min after intubation (T3-6). The difference between RE and SE wan calculated. Results The RE value at T3 and T4 and the difference between RE and SE at T2.5 were significantly lower in group R than in group NS ( P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion Rocuronium can decrease the RE value and degree of increase in the difference between RE and SE during induction of general anesthesia in patients of Uygur nationality, which may affect the accuracy of spectral entropy in monitoring the depth of anesthesia.
