Assessment of Nociceptive Responsiveness Levels during Sedation-Analgesia by Entropy Analysis of EEG

Assessment of Nociceptive Responsiveness Levels during Sedation-Analgesia by Entropy Analysis of EEG

The level of sedation in patients undergoing medical procedures is decided to assure unconsciousness and prevent pain. The monitors of depth of anesthesia, based on the analysis of the electroencephalogram (EEG), have been progressively introduced into the daily practice to provide additional inform...
