This work is an attempt to connect the electro-encephalogram (EEG) and monitor of cerebral function (MCF) recordings during the experimental stimulation of the rabbit brain whether this is in the from of direct central stimulation, by stereotaxic location, or in the form of indirect stimulation via a peripheral nerve. These stimulations, performed under alfadione anaesthesia or under the neuroleptanalgesic sedative effect of chlorprothixine, are compared for every animal with the results of the control stimulations. The cardiovascular responses are recorded simultaneously. It has been found that, in simple narcosis induced by alfadione, there is much variation in the EEG recording and even more so in the MCF recording according to the quantity used and the block of responses to stimuli does not appear until there is deep anaesthesia. However, when chlorprothixine is used, the MCF trace is found to be very closely related to the trace of mild anaesthesia with accompanying block to all of the nociceptive stimulations. It would seem, therefore, if we accept the concept of levels of cerebral activity, that the use of the MCF could well open the way to a better understanding of the pure narcotic phenomena and of the neurovegetative response block to aggression.
The Monitor of Cerebral Function was employed in anaesthesia for a double purpose: as a monitor of anaesthesia, of possible complications and of overdosage that might lead to cerebral damage; a bringing up to date of the comparative data on the various anaesthetic protocols. In this manner, we were able to demonstrate the during anaesthesia application of a cerebral monitor that is well designed and easy to handle. A comparative study of hypnotic anaesthetics and those that induce neuroleptanalgesia demonstrated that, in certain cases, the same anaesthetic stability is achieved when there is an early appearance of the electric silences as when the cerebral electrical activity is only slightly modified.
