Abstract: | We investigated whether components from the rat Vx-MLAEP could be used to assess depth of anaesthesia induced by propofol. Propofol decreased MLAEP amplitudes and increased latencies. We propose that the P(16)-N(22) wave in the rat MLAEP is similar to the human P1, and that recovery of this wave during propofol anaesthesia correlates with behavioural measures of the regaining of consciousness. |
