Comparative Study
Prospective study comparing skin impedance with EEG parameters during the induction of anaesthesia with fentanyl and etomidate.
Sympathetic stimulation leads to a change in electrical skin impedance. So far it is unclear whether this effect can be used to measure the effects of anaesthetics during general anaesthesia. The aim of this prospective study is to determine the electrical skin impedance during induction of anaesthesia for coronary artery bypass surgery with fentanyl and etomidate. ⋯ The electrical skin impedance measurement may be used to monitor the effects of anesthetics during general anaesthesia.
