Research indicates that even patients who have not received opioid treatment are at significant risk for chronic opioid use after major or minor surgeries. In particular, the dose-dependent induction of hyperalgesia and tolerance by remifentanil may lead to postoperative chronic pain … Read more

(长按 识别二维码 搜索更多麻醉学知识点) 【Definition】 The Surgical Pleth Index (SPI) is a monitoring tool that measures the photoplethysmographic signal from the fingertip to monitor the nociception-anti-nociception balance during general anesthesia. 【Principle】 Stress stimuli activate the peripheral sympathetic nervous system, inducing distal vascular contraction. By measuring the absorption of red light from the fingertip, the photoplethysmographic pulse … Read more
