pEEG isn’t just for TIVA! Using @narcotrend to avoid burst suppression and enjoying some sevo induced theta oscillations! 🤓
Relative Band Activity and DSA demonstrating theta (cyan), and the “fill in” effect noted on the DSA with ETaa around 1 MAC. Science in action. Note “the gap” occurring at induction d/t slow wash in of sevo despite immediate transition (so give a little Propofol ping!)
Emergence trajectory a little different; loose theta first then alpha roll and delta decay.
And to wind up; how about this epileptiform activity following an inhalational induction. Triggers @narcotrend epileptiform recognition!

Incidence v high in kids, reduced with lower ETaa. Paging @BryanGlezerson with this 😎
So, pEEG isn’t just a TIVA thing. That’s a hell of a lot of info and learning from a day in theatre giving anaesthetics the old fashioned way.

pEEG consumable costs - 45p.
