Spatio-temporal electroencephalographic power distribution in experimental pigs receiving propofol.

In juvenile pigs receiving increasing doses of propofol, the prefrontal region showed the highest EEG power both during wakefulness and propofol administration and was the area in which the largest frequency-band specific variations were observed across different anesthetic doses. The assessment of the spectral EEG activity at this region could be favorable to distinguish DoA levels in pigs.
