Overview

Several expert groups recommend the use of (processed) EEG-based patient monitoring to reduce the risk of intraoperative awareness and postoperative neurocognitive disorders. While these monitoring systems provide both a processed “depth of anesthesia” index and raw EEG or spectrogram data, most clinicians rely primarily on the index, which offers less detailed information than the raw data. This preference is largely due to a lack of training in interpreting raw EEG and spectrogram outputs. The EEG bootcamp - SBI addresses this knowledge gap by offering a standardized, algorithm-based educational workshop focused on teaching EEG and spectrogram interpretation.

This course is planned and organized by the University of Minnesota, Department of Anesthesiology. Contact Vanessa Moll, MD, PhD, FCCM, FASA, DESA or AngelaAmy H. Chen for additional information.

Objectives
At the conclusion of this course, learners should be able to:

  1. Explain the fundamental principles of EEG setup, including electrode placement, impedance management, hardware configurations, and filter settings, to ensure accurate signal acquisition and interpretation.
  2. Recognize and differentiate EEG artifacts from true neurophysiological signals, implementing strategies to minimize noise and improve signal accuracy in clinical settings.
  3. Describe how common anesthetic agents and perioperative medications alter EEG signatures and apply this knowledge to adjust anesthetic management accordingly.
  4. Compare age-related EEG patterns in pediatric and geriatric patients, identifying burst suppression phenomena and other age-specific considerations in anesthetic management.
  5. Analyze how underlying pathophysiological conditions, such as oxygen delivery, temperature and brain injury, influence frontal EEG patterns and apply this knowledge to refine anesthetic care.
