Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019207130A1] The invention relates to a method and a device for providing a parameter which indicates a loss of consciousness of a patient under anesthesia. The method has the steps of: detecting (301) at least one EEG signal on the head of the patient; continuously determining (302) the spectral cut-off frequency in a current time window of the EEG signal; determining (303) the curve of the spectral cut-off frequency of the EEG signal in a period of time which begins before an anesthesia-inducing medication is administered and ends after the anesthesia-induced loss of consciousness is initiated; determining (304) the absolute minimum of the spectral cut-off frequency in the period of time, wherein a negative peak of the spectral cut-off frequency lies in the absolute minimum, and providing (305) information regarding at which point in time the absolute minimum was reached as a parameter for an indicative notification of the loss of consciousness of the patient.
