In spite of today's increasing body of knowledge in regard to
central nervous func tion and/or the mode of action of centrally
active compounds, little is done to monitor those patients which
are at risk of cerebral lesions either in the OR or in the ICU. Due
to the inconsistency of reports regarding the application and the
benefits computerized EEG and/or evoked potential monitoring will
bring to the clinician, physicians still are reluctant to get
involved with a technique, which they think, will have little or no
effect on the outcome of a patients well being. However, due to the
development in computer technology, data acquisition and
comprehension, it now is possible to monitor such a viable organ as
the Central Nervous System (CNS) on a routine base without being a
specialist in neurology or electroencephalography. Thus, the book
is intended to guide the clinician to use BEG and evoked potential
monitoring in a day to day situation, without going too deep into
technical details. As an improvement of cerebral care is needed,
various representative cases underline the interpretation of EEG
power spectra and evoked potential changes in regard to the
underlying clinical situation. It is hoped that this book will
serve as a guide to anyone who considers cerebral monitoring a
necessity in today's patient care. This may be the
anesthesiologist, the intensive care therapist, the nurse
anesthetist as well as the medical personnel in the lCU setting."
