Abstract
6 discrete changes in the frequency of brain potentials during cyclopropane anesthesia and recovery from it are descr. The frequency changes during cvclopropane are not the same as those during the recovery phases. Potential patterns from corresponding regions of the 2 sides of the head during anesthesia and recovery are almost identical. However, the front, top and back of the head show differences in the time of onset of slow activity, rate of recovery, amplitude and regularity of potentials. In certain respects, the potential changes during cyclopropane anesthesia are similar to those observed during normal sleep. CO2 hastens the onset of deep anesthesia and makes slow rhythms more regular. Factors which may contribute to the frequency changes seen in cyclopropane anesthesia are discussed.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
