New criteria of burst suppression on electroencephalogram in dogs anesthetized with sevoflurane.
Research in Veterinary Science 2019 January 15
Burst suppression on electroencephalogram (EEG) is defined as suppression periods longer than 0.5 s during which the amplitude does not exceed 5 μV in human. The aims of this study were; 1) an attempt of creating new criteria of burst suppression in dogs; and 2) a survey on accuracy of sub-parameter of Bispectral index (BIS). Using a BIS monitor, suppression ratio (SRBIS ) and raw-EEG data were recorded at 2.0%, 2.5%, 3.0%, 3.5%, 4.0%, and 5.0% end-tidal sevoflurane concentration (ETSEV) in 6 beagle dogs. The minimum ETSEV at which burst suppression was visually confirmed (ETSEVBS ) was determined. By applying various duration and voltage threshold to criteria, suppression ratio was calculated (SR). Using the minimum balanced error rate (BER), new criteria consisting of the minimum duration of 0.35 s and the maximum threshold of 2.25 μV that provided SR > 0 above ETSEVBS was screened. SR was set by these criteria (SRBER ) and by manual inspection (SRTRUE ). The median detection rate of SRBER /SRTRUE was a statistically significant increase (p < .01) compared to that of SRBIS /SRTRUE (77% and 17% at 3.5% ETSEV, 89% and 19% at 4.0% ETSEV, and 86% and 84% at 5.0% ETSEV, respectively). In addition, between SRBER and SRTRUE evaluated by regression and Bland-Altman analyses, there was a strong correlation (r = 0.967, p < .001) and a moderate agreement (Limits of agreement: -7.14 ± 13.95). The method using BER may help to establish new criteria of burst suppression to grasp the excessive deep level of anesthesia.
