Extraction of the middle latency auditory evoked potentials (AEP) by an auto regressive model with exogenous input (ARX) enables extraction of the AEP within 1.7 s. In this way, the depth of hypnosis can be monitored at almost real-time. However, the identification and the interpretation of the appropriate signals of the AEP could be difficult to perform during the anesthesia procedure. This problem was addressed by defining an index which reflected the peak amplitudes and latencies of the AEP, developed to improve the clinical interpretation of the AEP. This index was defined as the A-line Arx Index (AAI).The AEP and AAI were compared with the Modified Observers Assessment of Alertness and Sedation Scale (MOAAS) in 24 patients scheduled for cardiac surgery, anesthetized with propofol or sevoflurane.When comparing the AEP peak latencies and amplitudes and the AAI, measured at MOAAS level 5 and level 1, significant differences were achieved. (mean(SD) Nb latency: MOAAS 5 51.1 (7.3) ms vs. MOAAS 1: 68.6 (8.1) ms; AAI: MOAAS 5 74.9 (13.3) vs. MOAAS 1 20.7 (4.7)). Among the recorded parameters, the AAI was the best predictor of the awake/anesthetized states.We conclude that both the AAI values and the AEP peak latencies and amplitudes correlated well with the MOAAS levels 5 (awake) and 1 (anesthetized). |
