Permutation Entropy Does Not Track the Electroencephalogram-Related Manifestations of Paradoxical Excitation During Propofol-Induced Loss of Responsiveness: Results From a Prospective Observational Cohort Study

CONCLUSIONS: PeEn and beta ratio seem suitable parameters to monitor the state transition during anesthesia induction. The decreasing PeEn values suggest a reduction of signal complexity and information content, which may very well describe the clinical situation at LOR. The beta ratio mainly focuses on the loss of power in the gamma-band. PeEn, in particular, may present a single parameter capable of tracking the LOR transition without being affected by paradoxical excitation.PMID:38412114 | DOI:10.1213/ANE.0000000000006919
