In laboratory animals as well as in human beings a depth of anaesthesia, where the subject has no pain or recall of events from the surgery, should be provided. Haemodynamic parameters such as heart rate and blood pressure are not a guarantee for an optimal depth of anaesthesia, especially when usin
Ephedrine, a sympathomimetic drug, may stimulate the central nervous system via its amphetamineβlike effect under light general anaesthesia. We compared the effect of ephedrine on auditoryβevoked potentials with that of etilefrine, a sympathomimetic drug that lacks an amphetamineβlike effect, in pat
The auditory evoked potential termed the middle latency response (MLR) has been suggested as an indicator of adequacy of anaesthesia during surgery. However, the response is small and must be extracted from high levels of background noise. A key consideration in using the MLR for clinical monitoring
