Monitoring Nociception Using NoL Index to Reduce Opioid-Related Complications in Laparoscopic Abdominal Surgery
Sponsor: Investigation Group Anesthesia, Resuscitation, And Perioperative Medicine of Aragon
Summary
This study aims to determine if optimal intraoperative nociception monitoring using the NoL index can reduce postoperative complications related to opioid use in laparoscopic abdominal surgery. The hypothesis is that guided nociception monitoring decreases opioid-related complications and improves postoperative outcomes.

Interventions
Nociception Level (NoL) Monitor
The NoL Monitor (PMD-200) is a multi-parameter sensor device placed on the patient's finger to estimate nociception levels during surgery. It provides continuous, real-time feedback to the anesthesiologist on the patient's nociception, assisting in the optimization of analgesic drug administration. The monitor integrates parameters such as heart rate variability, skin conductance, and other physiological signals to compute the NoL index, which ranges from 0 to 100, with target values between 10 and 25 for optimal nociception management.
