چکیده
BACKGROUND The extraction of the middle latency auditory evoked potentials (MLAEP) is usually done by moving time averaging (MTA) over many sweeps (often 250-1,000), which could produce a delay of more than 1 min. This problem was addressed by applying an autoregressive model with exogenous input (ARX) that enables extraction of the auditory evoked potentials (AEP) within 15 sweeps. The objective of this study was to show that an AEP could be extracted faster by ARX than by MTA and with the same reliability. METHODS The MTA and ARX methods were compared with the Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness and Sedation Scale (MOAAS) in 15 patients scheduled for cardiac surgery and anesthetized with propofol. The peak amplitudes and latencies were recorded continuously for the MTA- and ARX-extracted AEP. An index, AAI, was derived from the ARX-extracted AEP as well. RESULTS The best predictors of the awake and anesthetized states, in terms of the prediction probability, Pk, were the AAI (Pk [SE] = 0.93 [0.01]) and Na-Pa amplitude (MTA, Pk [SE] = 0.89 [0.02]; ARX, Pk [SE] = 0.87[0.02]). When comparing the AAI at the MOAAS levels 5-3 versus 2-0, significant differences were achieved. During the transitions from awake to asleep, the ARX-extracted AEP were obtained with significantly less delay than the MTA-extracted AEP (28.4 s vs. 6 s). CONCLUSION The authors conclude that the MLAEP peaks and the AAI correlate well to the MOAAS, whether extracted by MTA or ARX, but the ARX method produced a significantly shorter delay than the MTA.

Background: Propofol and Thiopental are intravenous anesthetics having relatively different hemodynamic influences and adverse effects. In addition, there is significant pain on intravenous injection of propofol. This study was performed to examine the effects of Propofol-Thiopental admixture on hemodynamic variables, pain on injection and hypnotic dose at the time of induction of general anest...

Comparison of bispectral EEG analysis and auditory evoked potentials for monitoring depth of anaesthesia during propofol anaesthesia.
We have compared the auditory evoked potential index (AEPIndex) and bispectral index (BIS) for monitoring depth of anaesthesia in spontaneously breathing surgical patients. Twenty patients (aged 17-49 yr) undergoing day surgery were anaesthetized with computer-controlled infusions of propofol. The mean (SD and range) of each measurement was determined during consciousness and unconsciousness an...

A new algorithm for averaging of evoked potentials (EPs) is introduced and compared with the conventional method. The root mean square (rms) values of the alpha and theta band EEG activities 1-s preceding stimulus presentation were computed: stimuli were blocked during phases of high prestimulus activity, thus evoking auditory responses selectively during periods of low activity. Ten volunteers...
متن کاملGeneral anesthesia increases temporal precision and decreases power of the brainstem auditory-evoked response-related segments of the electroencephalogram.
BACKGROUND Brainstem auditory-evoked responses (BAEP) have been reported to be unchanged in the presence of drugs used for induction and maintenance of general anesthesia. The aim of this study was to investigate if the signal segments after the auditory stimulus that are used to average the evoked response change under the influence of general anesthesia. METHODS BAEPs of 156 patients schedu...
