Clinical Study

What Do Changes in Brain Perfusion Induced by Etomidate Suggest about Epilepsy in Human Patients?

Figure 1

Bioelectrical brain activity induced by etomidate. (a) Scalp and FOE recording in basal conditions, 1 minute previous to etomidate administration. (b) Activity recorded 1 minute after etomidate. Slow high-amplitude activity is observed widespread in scalp, specially in anterior regions. It is important to note that IEDs appear in the same region where the spontaneous seizure originated.
