Brief Summary: The aim of the present study was to investigate the sensitivity of AEP auditory evoked potentials to muscular artefacts using sedation and local anesthesia
Detailed Description: Spontaneous or evoked electrical brain activity is increasingly used to monitor general anesthesia During alertness surgery and anesthesia the quality of AEP recordings may be reduced by artefacts This poses the question to what extent AEP are sensitive for muscular artefacts High frequency artefacts can have its seeds in muscles and in technical instruments in the operating room Therefore the study will take place under the terms of laboratory

The present study was designed to measure the influence of muscular artefacts on AEP under propofol sedation with or without local anesthesia in the area of the electrodes

If artefacts influence AEP which are used to measure anesthesia it is particularly interesting with regard to clinical application AEP as a measure of anesthetic depth may not only reflect brain but also muscular and high frequency activity Therefore while using muscle relaxants the AEP of an awake patient may indicate deep anesthesia because muscle signals are absent
