Connectivity changes underlying spectral EEG changes during propofol-induced loss of consciousness.
The mechanisms underlying anesthesia-induced loss of consciousness remain a matter of debate. Recent electrophysiological reports suggest that while initial propofol infusion provokes an increase in fast rhythms (from beta to gamma range), slow activity (from delta to alpha range) rises selectively during loss of consciousness. Dynamic causal modeling was used to investigate the neural mechanis...
متن کاملBrain functional integration decreases during propofol-induced loss of consciousness
Consciousness has been related to the amount of integrated information that the brain is able to generate. In this paper, we tested the hypothesis that the loss of consciousness caused by propofol anesthesia is associated with a significant reduction in the capacity of the brain to integrate information. To assess the functional structure of the whole brain, functional integration and partial c...
متن کاملMeanfield modeling of propofol-induced changes in spontaneous EEG rhythms
During the maintenance period of propofol-induced general anesthesia, specific changes in spontaneous EEG rhythms can be observed. These comprise increased delta and theta power and the emergence of alpha oscillations over frontal regions. In this study we use a meanfield model of the thalamo-cortical system to reproduce these changes and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. The model is abl...
متن کاملComparison of hemodynamic changes of Propofol and Thiopental during
Introduction: General anesthesia is the most common technique for performance of various surgical procedures. Thiopental is the most common anesthetic agent for intravenous induction. Since the introduction of propofol as an anesthetic agent, its use has increased progressively and has become the drug of choice for induction of anesthesia in several conditions. The aims of this study were com...
متن کاملBrain Functional Connectivity Changes During Learning of Time Discrimination
The human brain is a complex system consist of connected nerve cells that adapts with and learn from the environment by changing its regional activities. Synchrony between these regional activities called functional network changes during the life, and with learning of new skills. Time perception and interval discrimination are among the most necessary skills for the human being to perceive mot...
