Treatments tested in this trial
high dose of alfentanil
DrugThe initial dose is alfentanil cet 10ng/mL and propofol 1ug/mL. Dose of alfentanil will be increased by 10ng/mL each until PSI reach to 25-50. If alfentail has been adjusted to 50 but PSI is still too high, increase propofol cet by 0.5-1ug/mL till target PSI is reached. If propofol is adjusted to 0 but PSI is still too low, decrease alfetanil by 10ng/mL The range of dosage of alfentanil is 0-50ng/mL while propofol is 0-5ug/mL.
low dose of alfentanil with propofol
DrugAdjust dose of propofol to the upper limit before adjusting dose of alfentanil. Increase dose of propofol 0.5-1 ug/mL in order to have PSI valued 25-50. The initial dose of propofol is 1ug/mL, alfentanil 10 ng/mL. If propofol was adjusted to cet=5 ug/mL but PSI is still too high, increase alfentanil by 10 ng/mL instead. If alfentanil was adjusted to 0 but PSI is still too low, decrease propofol by 0.5-1 ug/mL instead . The range of dosage of propofol is 0-5 ug/mL while alfentanil is 0-50ng/mL.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
EEG alpha power to beta power ratio
EEG alpha ratio
EEG delta ratio
EEG beta ratio
Secondary outcomes
Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI)
The Analgesia Nociception Index is measured by a continuous analgesia monitoring system . It is a numeric index (range from 0-100) indicating patients' nociception.
Blood pressure
Non-invasive cardiac output
Cardiac output measured continuously by non-invasive monitoring (e.g., electrical cardiometry or equivalent device). The unit of measure is liters per minute (L/min)
Heart rate
Other outcomes
Frequency of Patient Movement Events
The total number of movement events (defined as gross body motion, limb withdrawal, or head movement) recorded during the procedure
