Abstract
There are several indexes of intraoperative nociception during surgery under general anesthesia. Although a higher degree of surgical invasiveness increases intraoperative nociception, an association between the index of intraoperative nociception and severity of surgical invasiveness has not been reported. We hypothesized that there is associations between averaged values of nociceptive response (NR) throughout surgery (mean NR), as the index of intraoperative nociception, and surgical severity codes in the Surgical outcome risk tool (SORT) or procedure risk codes in the Surgical mortality probability model (S-MPM). The primary outcome was the association between mean NR and severity scores of surgical procedure. Hence, a single institutional retrospective cohort study was performed in consecutive patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery under general anesthesia from June 2018 to May 2019. There were significant increases in the three categories of procedure risk in the S-MPM corresponding to the increase in mean NR values in 5090 patients. In the SORT, the highest intensity in the four categories of surgical severity also significantly correlated with the increase in mean NR values. Increasing intensity of intraoperative nociception is likely associated with higher severity codes of surgical invasiveness in prediction models for postoperative morbidity and mortality.Keywords
