Filter by:The correlations of deep brain nuclei firing and cerebral cortex activity during recovery from general anesthesia is unclear. In this study, the local field potential (LFP) from the deep brain nuclei and the scalp electroencephalogram (EEG) of the frontal cortex were recorded from patients undergoing deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery during the recovery from general anesthesia, in order to explore the changes and relevance of deep brain nuclei firing and cortex activity during the recovery of consciousness from general anesthesia .
The purpose of this research study is to find out whether dexmedetomidine changes brain cell activity in the subthalamic nucleus (STN).
