Intra Cranial EEG Activity During Dexmedetomidine Sedation

Complex Partial Seizures Clinical Trial

Official title:
Intra Cranial EEG Activity During Dexmedetomidine Sedation.Comparing the Effects of Dexmedetomidine on the Cortical and the Sub Cortical(Hippocampus) Structures.

Status Terminated

Clinical Trial Summary

Various parts of the brain are sensitive to various anesthetics.We like to study the effect of dexmedetomidine on the different parts of the brain in patients who are coming for DBS electrode removal under sedation.

Clinical Trial Description

Cortical and sub cortical structures will have different sensitivities to various anesthetics.The objective of this study is to look at the changes in the intracranial electroencephalographic (EEG) characteristics during dexmedetomidine sedation and to determine the differences in the EEG characteristics between cortical and subcortical structures. ;
