Abstract
A system and a method provide closed-loop sedation, anesthesia, or analgesia by monitoring EEG and automatically adjusting delivery of sedative, anesthetic, and/or analgesic drugs to maintain a desired or predetermined level of cortical at all echelons of care. The system and the method further monitor a subject's cortical activity to detect occurrence of burst suppression which can be indicative of unsafe depth of anesthesia or sedation. Further, the system and the method provide for alteration or cessation of administration of anesthesia or sedation based on the occurrence of burst suppression to mitigate harm to the subject.
