Continuous EEG of memories of Near-death and mystical experiences: Preliminary research

We recently recorded, processed, and published brain activity by quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) (QEEGt), comparing separate subjects remembering their near-death experience (NDE) mystical experience. Our studies refer to a as spiritual contemplative (SCE). found neural Greyson Scale (GS) correlations between them. This study is real-time enhancement of that using the emerging technology continuous EEG monitoring (CEEG), which intensive care unit (ICU) professionals use identify malignant patterns quickly provide effectively. encompasses wide range technical clinical issues in successfully critically ill patients detect significant changes cerebral function prevent serious neuronal injury over time. Because undergoes dynamic changes, CEEG was considered an important method for functional while experiences The envelope showed incremental amplitude coinciding with NDE SCE time, but increase greater SCE. also demonstrated frontal lobes Statistical increments absolute power alpha gamma bands were during both conclude useful continuously assessing
