Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Observation (continuous monitoring) of the analgesia nociception index (ANI) during anaesthesia for elective surgery. Simulataneously monitoring of systolic blood pressure, heart rate and bispectral index.
ANI will be monitored over the entire period of anaesthesia (hence varying times between patients) by means of 2 sticky electrodes applied to the patient's chest. The sampled electrogrardiographic data is then used to calculate cardiac poarasympathetic activity, and finally displayed as a 0-100 score (high numbers mean more comfortable patient).

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 288914 0
Predictive value of ANI for changes of systolic blood pressure or heart rate within a 5-minute interval (5 minutes from ANI change) in patients undergoing non-emergency surgery
Timepoint [1] 288914 0
intraoperatively. Multiple events possible. ANI changes > 20% from baseline are named "ANI event". A period of 5 minutes after such event is observed for changes in HR or blood pressure (> 10%)
Secondary outcome [1] 301321 0
Changes in ANI after (within 5 minutes) changes in heart rate or blood pressure ("changes" of HR and BP defined as > 15% from baseline)
Timepoint [1] 301321 0
intraoperatively. Observation of ANI for 5 minutes after changes in heart rate of blood pressure (> + 15% from baseline)
