ABSTRACT
A circadian rhythm in anesthetic index is quantified by the single cosinor method in data published earlier. Although the double circadian amplitude, a measure of the extent of predictable change, is only 14%, the assumption of no rhythm (zero amplitude) is rejected at the 1% level of statistical significance. It seems likely that, in the absence of noise, the amplitude of the rhythmic change in the response to the anesthetic will be larger. The broader importance of chronobiology for anesthesiologists is also indicated. Hardware and software for the monitoring of a patient's vital signs before, during, and after surgery provide refined dynamic endpoints from the analysis of data series and lead to time-specified reference values that improve even the interpretation of time-specified single values.
