Summary
This study looked at whether using EEG brain-wave monitoring during general anesthesia helps doctors give the right amount of medicine. The goal was to help patients wake up faster after surgery and reduce memory or thinking problems. About 100 adults having surgery took part. Researchers tracked drug doses, wake-up time, and thinking skills using special tests before and after surgery.
