Purdue University Researcher Yields New Data on Veterinary Medicine (Electroencephalographic and Cardiovascular Assessments of Isoflurane-Anesthetized Dogs).

A recent study conducted at Purdue University explored the use of frontal electroencephalography (EEG) to monitor varying levels of isoflurane anesthesia in dogs. The research found that EEG monitoring can be a valuable tool for tracking brain states in real-time and guiding the management of isoflurane anesthesia. The study also noted that five out of six dogs experienced a rough recovery, possibly due to high burst suppression ratio (SR) and low mean arterial blood pressure (MBP). The findings suggest that EEG monitoring in dogs could offer insights into anesthesia management. [Extracted from the article]
