Abstract
PURPOSE Application of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine is quickly expanding. Despite the amount of evidence and promising results, a thorough overview of the current state of AI in clinical practice of anesthesiology is needed. Therefore, our study aims to systematically review the application of AI in this context. METHODS A systematic review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. We searched Medline and Web of Science for articles published up to November 2022 using terms related with AI and clinical practice of anesthesiology. Articles that involved animals, editorials, reviews and sample size lower than 10 patients were excluded. Characteristics and accuracy measures from each study were extracted. RESULTS A total of 46 articles were included in this review. We have grouped them into 4 categories with regard to their clinical applicability: (1) Depth of Anesthesia Monitoring; (2) Image-guided techniques related to Anesthesia; (3) Prediction of events/risks related to Anesthesia; (4) Drug administration control. Each group was analyzed, and the main findings were summarized. Across all fields, the majority of AI methods tested showed superior performance results compared to traditional methods. CONCLUSION AI systems are being integrated into anesthesiology clinical practice, enhancing medical professionals' skills of decision-making, diagnostic accuracy, and therapeutic response.

Consistency of the anesthesia consciousness index versus the bispectral index during laparoscopic gastrointestinal surgery with sevoflurane anesthesia: A prospective multi-center randomized controlled clinical study. Front Aging Neurosci 2023; 15:1084462. [PMID: 36967816 PMCID: PMC10034014 DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2023.1084462] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2022] [Accepted: 02/21/2023] [Indexed: 03/11/2023] Open
Abstract
BackgroundThis study aimed to compare the consistency of anesthesia consciousness index (Ai) with that of bispectral index (BIS) in monitoring the depth of anesthesia (DOA) during sevoflurane anesthesia, to reveal the optimal cutoff values in different states of consciousness, and explore the stability of DOA monitoring during intraoperative injurious stimulation.MethodsWe enrolled 145 patients (97 men and 48 women) from 10 medical centers. General anesthesia was induced using intravenous anesthetics and maintained with sevoflurane. Ai and BIS values were recorded.ResultsThe mean difference between the Ai and BIS was-0.1747 (95% confidence interval, −0.6660 to 0.3166; p = 0.4857). The regression equation of Ai and BIS from the Deming regression analysis was y = 5.6387 + 0.9067x (y is BIS, x is Ai), and the slope and intercept were statistically significant. Meanwhile, the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis of anesthesia-induced unconsciousness, loss of consciousness, and recovery of consciousness revealed that the accuracy of Ai and BIS were similar. In addition, the optimal cutoff values of the different states of consciousness were not sensitive to age, and both Ai and BIS had no correlation with hemodynamics.ConclusionWe conclude that Ai and BIS show no systematic deviation in readings with high consistency, similar accuracy, and good stability; these insights provide more data for clinical application.

SENSORS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 22:5496. [PMID: 35897999 PMCID: PMC9330343 DOI: 10.3390/s22155496] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2022] [Revised: 07/10/2022] [Accepted: 07/18/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
There are many surgical operations performed daily in operation rooms worldwide. Adequate anesthesia is needed during an operation. Besides hypnosis, adequate analgesia is critical to prevent autonomic reactions. Clinical experience and vital signs are usually used to adjust the dosage of analgesics. Analgesia nociception index (ANI), which ranges from 0 to 100, is derived from heart rate variability (HRV) via electrocardiogram (ECG) signals, for pain evaluation in a non-invasive manner. It represents parasympathetic activity. In this study, we compared the performance of multilayer perceptron (MLP) and long short-term memory (LSTM) algorithms in predicting expert assessment of pain score (EAPS) based on patient's HRV during surgery. The objective of this study was to analyze how deep learning models differed from the medical doctors' predictions of EAPS. As the input and output features of the deep learning models, the opposites of ANI and EAPS were used. This study included 80 patients who underwent operations at National Taiwan University Hospital. Using MLP and LSTM, a holdout method was first applied to 60 training patients, 10 validation patients, and 10 testing patients. As compared to the LSTM model, which had a testing mean absolute error (MAE) of 2.633 ± 0.542, the MLP model had a testing MAE of 2.490 ± 0.522, with a more appropriate shape of its prediction curves. The model based on MLP was selected as the best. Using MLP, a seven-fold cross validation method was then applied. The first fold had the lowest testing MAE of 2.460 ± 0.634, while the overall MAE for the seven-fold cross validation method was 2.848 ± 0.308. In conclusion, HRV analysis using MLP algorithm had a good correlation with EAPS; therefore, it can play role as a continuous monitor to predict intraoperative pain levels, to assist physicians in adjusting analgesic agent dosage. Further studies may consider obtaining more input features, such as photoplethysmography (PPG) and other kinds of continuous variable, to improve the prediction performance.

Abstract
Monitoring the consciousness states of patients and ensuring the appropriate depth of anesthesia (DOA) is critical for the safe implementation of surgery. In this study, a high-density electroencephalogram (EEG) combined with blood drug concentration and behavioral response indicators was used to monitor propofol-induced sedation and evaluate the alterations in consciousness states. Microstate analysis, which can reflect the semi-stable state of the sub-second activation of the brain functional network, can be used to assess the brain's consciousness states. In this research, the EEG microstate sequences were constructed to compare the characteristics of corresponding sequences. Compared with the baseline (BS) state, the microstate sequences in the moderate sedation (MD) state exhibited higher complexity indexes of the multiscale sample entropy. With respect to the transition probability (TP) of microstates, most microstates tended to be converted into microstate C in the BS state. In contrast, they tended to be converted into microstate F in the MD state. The significant difference between the expected TP and observed TP could lead to the conclusion that hidden layers were present when there were changes in the consciousness states. According to the hidden Markov model, the accuracy of distinguishing the BS and MD states was 80.16%. The characteristics of microstate sequence revealed the variations in the brain states caused by alterations in consciousness states during anesthesia from a new perspective and presented a new idea for monitoring the DOA.

Abstract
Background The COVID-19 pandemic interfered with normal campus life, resulting in the need for the course to be conducted in an ideal online format. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of different styles of online political course videos on students' attention during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods Four college students participated in this small sample study. They were required to conduct two sessions of the experiment, in which they were required to watch three different styles of course videos in each session. While watching the videos, their EEG signals were acquired. For the acquired EEG signals, the sample entropy (SampEn) features were extracted. On the other hand, Mayer's theories of multimedia technology provide guidance for teachers' online courses to enhance students' attention levels. The results of EEG signals analysis and Mayer's theories of multimedia technology were combined to compare and analyze the effects of three styles of instructional videos. Results Based on comparisons of the SampEn and Mayer's theories of multimedia technology analysis, the results suggest that online instruction in a style where the instructor and content appear on the screen at the same time and the instructor points out the location of the content as it is explained is more likely to elicit higher levels of students' attention. Conclusions During the COVID-19 pandemic, online instructional methods have an impact on students' classroom attention. It is essential for teachers to design online instructional methods based on students' classroom attention levels and some multimedia instructional techniques to improve students' learning efficiency.

Abstract
Introduction Stress among college students is a common health problem that is directly correlated with poor cognitive health. For instance, cognitive mechanisms required for sustenance can be affected due to stress caused by daily mundane events, not necessarily by chronic events. Thus, it becomes essential to manage stress effectively especially for college students. Meditation is one of the useful techniques that facilitates cognitive flexibility and has consequences at the molecular and endocrinal level to treat stress. Objectives The present study attempts to understand the effect of meditation on the brain waves when participants face stressful events. Methods A randomized controlled pre-post experimental design was used. Total 18 subjects were randomly assigned to control group and experimental group. Subsequently, Electroencephalograph (EEG) data were recorded during the determination test (DT) before and after the meditation. The Control group underwent relaxation music while the experimental group practiced Sudarshan Kriya Yoga (SKY) (a type of meditation). Non-linear EEG signal processing algorithm was applied to capture dynamics and complexity in brain waves. Results: Results indicated that the efficacy of meditation was reflected with the improved information processing in the brain. Improved performance and reduced errors were reported in DT Scores in the experimental group. Increased complexity of beta band was observed for non-linear features, signifying efficient utilization of cognitive resources while performing the task. Conclusion Findings implicated the usefulness of the meditation process for effective stress management.

Abstract
Objective. In this paper, a new approach of extracting and measuring the variability in electroencephalogram (EEG) was proposed to assess the depth of anesthesia (DOA) under general anesthesia.Approach. The EEG variability (EEGV) was extracted as a fluctuation in time interval that occurs between two local maxima of EEG. Eight parameters related to EEGV were measured in time and frequency domains, and compared with state-of-the-art DOA estimation parameters, including sample entropy, permutation entropy, median frequency and spectral edge frequency of EEG. The area under the receiver-operator characteristics curve (AUC) and Pearson correlation coefficient were used to validate its performance on 56 patients.Main results. Our proposed EEGV-derived parameters yield significant difference for discriminating between awake and anesthesia stages at a significance level of 0.05, as well as improvement in AUC and correlation coefficient on average, which surpasses the conventional features of EEG in detection accuracy of unconscious state and tracking the level of consciousness.Significance. To sum up, EEGV analysis provides a new perspective in quantifying EEG and corresponding parameters are powerful and promising for monitoring DOA under clinical situations.

Abstract
Over the last years, a surge of empirical studies converged on complexity-related measures as reliable markers of consciousness across many different conditions, such as sleep, anesthesia, hallucinatory states, coma, and related disorders. Most of these measures were independently proposed by researchers endorsing disparate frameworks and employing different methods and techniques. Since this body of evidence has not been systematically reviewed and coherently organized so far, this positive trend has remained somewhat below the radar. The aim of this paper is to make this consilience of evidence in the science of consciousness explicit. We start with a systematic assessment of the growing literature on complexity-related measures and identify their common denominator, tracing it back to core theoretical principles and predictions put forward more than 20 years ago. In doing this, we highlight a consistent trajectory spanning two decades of consciousness research and provide a provisional taxonomy of the present literature. Finally, we consider all of the above as a positive ground to approach new questions and devise future experiments that may help consolidate and further develop a promising field where empirical research on consciousness appears to have, so far, naturally converged.

Abstract
The way people learn will play an essential role in the sustainable development of the educational system for the future. Utilizing technology in the age of information and incorporating it into how people learn can produce better learners. Implicit learning is a type of learning of the underlying rules without consciously seeking or understanding the rules; it is commonly seen in small children while learning how to speak their native language without learning grammar. This research aims to introduce a processing system that can systematically identify the relationship between implicit learning events and their Encephalogram (EEG) signal characteristics. This study converted the EEG signal from participants while performing cognitive task experiments into Multiscale Entropy (MSE) data. Using MSE data from different frequency bands and channels as features, the system explored a wide range of classifiers and observed their performance to see how they classified the features related to participants’ performance. The Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) method was used for feature selection to improve the process to make the system more efficient. The results showed that the system could correctly identify the differences between participants’ performance using MSE data and the ABC method with 95% confidence.

Abstract
Background Estimating the depth of anaesthesia (DoA) is critical in modern anaesthetic practice. Multiple DoA monitors based on electroencephalograms (EEGs) have been widely used for DoA monitoring; however, these monitors may be inaccurate under certain conditions. In this work, we hypothesize that heart rate variability (HRV)-derived features based on a deep neural network can distinguish different anaesthesia states, providing a secondary tool for DoA assessment. Methods A novel method of distinguishing different anaesthesia states was developed based on four HRV-derived features in the time and frequency domain combined with a deep neural network. Four features were extracted from an electrocardiogram, including the HRV high-frequency power, low-frequency power, high-to-low-frequency power ratio, and sample entropy. Next, these features were used as inputs for the deep neural network, which utilized the expert assessment of consciousness level as the reference output. Finally, the deep neural network was compared with the logistic regression, support vector machine, and decision tree models. The datasets of 23 anaesthesia patients were used to assess the proposed method. Results The accuracies of the four models, in distinguishing the anaesthesia states, were 86.2% (logistic regression), 87.5% (support vector machine), 87.2% (decision tree), and 90.1% (deep neural network). The accuracy of deep neural network was higher than those of the logistic regression (p < 0.05), support vector machine (p < 0.05), and decision tree (p < 0.05) approaches. Our method outperformed the logistic regression, support vector machine, and decision tree methods. Conclusions The incorporation of four HRV-derived features in the time and frequency domain and a deep neural network could accurately distinguish between different anaesthesia states; however, this study is a pilot feasibility study. The proposed method—with other evaluation methods, such as EEG—is expected to assist anaesthesiologists in the accurate evaluation of the DoA.

Abstract
The Poincaré plot obtained from electroencephalography (EEG) has been used to evaluate the depth of anesthesia. A standalone EEG Analyzer application was developed; raw EEG signals obtained from a bispectral index (BIS) monitor were analyzed using an on-line monitoring system. Correlations between Poincaré plot parameters and other measurements associated with anesthesia depth were evaluated during emergence from inhalational general anesthesia. Of the participants, 20 were adults anesthetized with sevoflurane (adult_SEV), 20 were adults anesthetized with desflurane (adult_DES), and 20 were pediatric patients anesthetized with sevoflurane (ped_SEV). EEG signals were preprocessed through six bandpass digital filters (f0: 0.5–47 Hz, f1: 0.5–8 Hz, f2: 8–13 Hz, f3: 13–20 Hz, f4: 20–30 Hz, and f5: 30–47 Hz). The Poincaré plot-area ratio (PPAR = PPA_fx/PPA_f0, fx = f1∼f5) was analyzed at five frequency ranges. Regardless of the inhalational anesthetic used, there were strong linear correlations between the logarithm of PPAR at f5 and BIS (R2 = 0.67, 0.79, and 0.71, in the adult_SEV, adult_DES, and ped_SEV groups, respectively). As an additional observation, a part of EMG activity at the gamma range of 30–47 Hz probably influenced the calculations of BIS and PPAR_f5 with a non-negligible level. The logarithm of PPAR in the gamma band was most sensitive to state changes during the emergence process and could provide a new non-proprietary parameter that correlates with changes in BIS during measurement of anesthesia depth.

Abstract
The present study was aimed to evaluate the abilities of photoplethysmography (PPG)-derived parameters, including sample entropy of PPG (SampEn), amplitude of PPG (PPGA), pulse beat interval (PBI) and diastolic interval (DI) extracted by nonlinear or linear methods, to monitor the balance between nociception and antinociception. 26 ASA I or II patients were randomized into one of the three groups to receive a remifentanil effect-compartment target controlled infusion (Ceremi) of 1, 3 and 5 ng/ml and an effect-compartment target controlled propofol infusion (Ceprop) to keep the state entropy (SE) at 50 (40~60). Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion was applied as a noxious stimulus. The percentage of change in SampEn (△SampEn, AUC=0.896), PBI (△PBI, AUC=0.896) and DI (ΔDI, AUC=0.972), but not in PPGA (△PPGA, AUC=0.667), were statistically excellent in discriminating low Ceremi (1 ng/ml) from higher Ceremi (3 and 5 ng/ml). Additionally, the prediction probabilities (Pk) values of △SampEn, ΔPBI and ΔDI were high as well with 0.795, 0.754 and 0.813 for discriminating Ceremi. These results demonstrated that nonlinear and linear parameters of SampEn, PBI and DI had strong dependency on Ceremi in response to LMA insertion and could provide nociceptive information during propofol-remifentanil anesthesia. This indicated that PPG-derived parameters were potential to develop the clinical assessment of nociception-antinociception balance under general anesthesia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between the depth of anesthesia and the cerebral hemodynamic variables during the complete anesthesia process. METHODS In this study, near-infrared spectroscopy signals were used to record eight kinds of cerebral hemodynamic variables, including left, right, proximal, distal deoxygenated (Hb) and oxygenated (HbO2) hemoglobin concentration changes. Then, by measuring the complexity information of cerebral hemodynamic variables, the sample entropy was calculated as a new index of monitoring the depth of anesthesia. RESULTS By means of receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the sample entropy approach was proved to effectively discriminate anesthesia maintenance and waking phases. The discriminatory ability of HbO2 signals was stronger than that of Hb signals and the distal signals had weaker discrimination capability when compared with the proximal signals. In addition, there was statistical consistency between the bispectral index and sample entropy of cerebral hemodynamic variables during the complete anesthesia process. Moreover, the cerebral hemodynamic signals could not be interfered by clinical electrical devices. CONCLUSION The sample entropy of cerebral hemodynamic variables could be suitable as a new index for monitoring the depth of anesthesia. SIGNIFICANCE This study is very meaningful for developing new modality and decoding methods in perspective of anesthesia surveillance and may result in the anesthesia monitoring system with high performance.

Abstract
The electroencephalogram (EEG) can reflect brain activity and contains abundant information of different anesthetic states of the brain. It has been widely used for monitoring depth of anesthesia (DoA). In this study, we propose a method that combines multiple EEG-based features with artificial neural network (ANN) to assess the DoA. Multiple EEG-based features can express the states of the brain more comprehensively during anesthesia. First, four parameters including permutation entropy, 95% spectral edge frequency, BetaRatio and SynchFastSlow were extracted from the EEG signal. Then, the four parameters were set as the inputs to an ANN which used bispectral index (BIS) as the reference output. 16 patient datasets during propofol anesthesia were used to evaluate this method. The results indicated that the accuracies of detecting each state were 86.4% (awake), 73.6% (light anesthesia), 84.4% (general anesthesia), and 14% (deep anesthesia). The correlation coefficient between BIS and the index of this method was 0.892 (p<0.001). The results showed that the proposed method could well distinguish between awake and other anesthesia states. This method is promising and feasible for a monitoring system to assess the DoA.

Comparative Evaluation of a New Depth of Anesthesia Index in ConView® System and the Bispectral Index during Total Intravenous Anesthesia: A Multicenter Clinical Trial. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2019; 2019:1014825.

Abstract
The performance of a new monitor for the depth of anesthesia (DOA), the Depth of Anesthesia Index (Ai) based on sample entropy (SampEn), 95% spectral edge frequency (95%SEF), and burst suppression ratio (BSR) was evaluated compared to Bispectral Index (BIS) during total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA). 144 patients in six medical centers were enrolled. General anesthesia was induced with stepwise-increased target-controlled infusion (TCI) of propofol until loss of consciousness (LOC). During surgery propofol was titrated according to BIS. Both Ai and BIS were recorded. Primary outcomes: the limits of agreement between Ai and BIS were -17.68 and 16.49, which were, respectively, -30.0% and 28.0% of the mean value of BIS. Secondary outcomes: prediction probability (Pk) of BIS and Ai was 0.943 and 0.935 (p=0.102) during LOC and 0.928 and 0.918 (p=0.037) during recovery of consciousness (ROC). And the values of BIS and Ai were 68.19 and 66.44 at 50%LOC, and 76.65 and 78.60 at 50%ROC. A decrease or an increase of Ai was significantly greater than that of BIS when consciousness changes (during LOC: -9.13±10.20 versus -5.83±9.63, p<0.001; during ROC: 10.88±11.51 versus 5.32±7.53, p<0.001). The conclusion is that Ai has similar characteristic of BIS as a DOA monitor and revealed the advantage of SampEn for indicating conscious level. This trial is registered at Chinese Clinical Trial Registry with ChiCTR-IOR-16009471.

Frontal EEG Temporal and Spectral Dynamics Similarity Analysis between Propofol and Desflurane Induced Anesthesia Using Hilbert-Huang Transform. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2018; 2018:4939480.

Abstract
Electroencephalogram (EEG) signal analysis is commonly employed to extract information on the brain dynamics. It mainly targets brain status and communication, thus providing potential to trace differences in the brain's activity under different anesthetics. In this article, two kinds of gamma-amino butyric acid (type A -GABAA) dependent anesthetic agents, propofol and desflurane (28 and 23 patients), were studied and compared with respect to EEG spectrogram dynamics. Hilbert-Huang Transform (HHT) was employed to compute the time varying spectrum for different anesthetic levels in comparison with Fourier based method. Results show that the HHT method generates consistent band power (slow and alpha) dominance pattern as Fourier method does, but exhibits higher concentrated power distribution within each frequency band than the Fourier method during both drugs induced unconsciousness. HHT also finds slow and theta bands peak frequency with better convergence by standard deviation (propofol-slow: 0.46 to 0.24; theta: 1.42 to 0.79; desflurane-slow: 0.30 to 0.25; theta: 1.42 to 0.98) and a shift to relatively lower values for alpha band (propofol: 9.94 Hz to 10.33 Hz, desflurane 8.44 Hz to 8.84 Hz) than Fourier one. For different stage comparisons, although HHT shows significant alpha power increases during unconsciousness stage as the Fourier did previously, it finds no significant high frequency (low gamma) band power difference in propofol whereas it does in desflurane. In addition, when comparing the HHT results within two groups during unconsciousness, high beta band power in propofol is significantly larger than that of desflurane while delta band power behaves oppositely. In conclusion, this study convincingly shows that EEG analyzed here considerably differs between the HHT and Fourier method.

Abstract
Evaluation of depth of anaesthesia (DoA) is critical in clinical surgery. Indices derived from electroencephalogram (EEG) are currently widely used to quantify DoA. However, there are known to be inaccurate under certain conditions; therefore, experienced anaesthesiologists rely on the monitoring of vital signs such as body temperature, pulse rate, respiration rate, and blood pressure to control the procedure. Because of the lack of an ideal approach for quantifying level of consciousness, studies have been conducted to develop improved methods of measuring DoA. In this study, a short-term index known as the similarity and distribution index (SDI) is proposed. The SDI is generated using heart rate variability (HRV) in the time domain and is based on observations of data distribution differences between two consecutive 32 s HRV data segments. A comparison between SDI results and expert assessments of consciousness level revealed that the SDI has strong correlation with anaesthetic depth. To optimise the effect, artificial neural network (ANN) models were constructed to fit the SDI, and ANN blind cross-validation was conducted to overcome random errors and overfitting problems. An ensemble ANN was then employed and was discovered to provide favourable DoA assessment in comparison with commonly used Bispectral Index. This study demonstrated the effectiveness of this method of DoA assessment, and the results imply that it is feasible and meaningful to use the SDI to measure DoA with the additional use of other measurement methods, if appropriate.

Abstract
Developing neuronal populations are assumed to increase their synaptic interactions and generate synchronized activity, such as bursting, during maturation. These effects may arise from increasing interactions of neuronal populations and increasing simultaneous intra-population activity in developing networks. In this paper, we investigated the neuronal network activity and its complexity by means of self-similarity during neuronal network development. We studied the phenomena using computational neuronal network models and actual in vitro microelectrode array data measured from a developing neuronal network of dissociated mouse cortical neurons. To achieve this, we assessed the spiking and bursting characteristics of the networks, and computed the signal complexity with Sample Entropy. The results show that we can relate increasing simultaneous activity in a neuronal population with decreasing entropy, and track the network development and maturation using this. We can conclude that the complexity of neuronal network signals decreases during the maturation. This can emerge from the fact that as networks mature, they exhibit more synchronous activity, thus decreasing the complexity of its signaling. However, increasing the number of interacting populations has lesser effect on the signal complexity. The entropy based measure provides a tool to assess the complexity of the neuronal network activity, and can be useful in the assessment of developing networks or the effects of drugs and toxins on their functioning.

Abstract
Phase-rectified signal averaging (PRSA) has been known to be a useful method to detect periodicities in non-stationary biological signals. Determination of quasi-periodicities in electroencephalogram (EEG) is a candidate for quantifying the changes in the depth of anesthesia (DOA). In this paper, DOA monitoring capacity of periodicities detected using PRSA was quantified by assessing EEG signals collected from 56 patients during surgery. The method is compared with sample entropy (SampEn), detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA), and permutation entropy (PE). The performance of quasi-periodicities defined by deceleration capacity and acceleration capacity was tested using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and Pearson correlation coefficient. During the surgery, a significant difference ( ) in the quasi-periodicities was observed among three different stages under general anesthesia. There is a larger mean AUC and correlation coefficient of quasi-periodicities compared with SampEn, DFA, and PE using expert assessment of conscious level and bispectral index as the gold standard, respectively. Quasi-periodicities detected using PRSA in EEG signals are a powerful monitor of DOA and perform more accurate and robust results compared with SampEn, DFA, and PE. The results do provide a valuable reference to researchers in the field of clinical applications.

Abstract
This study examined whether prefrontal brain region electroencephalography (EEG) can be used to detect driver's fatigue. The participants were 13 healthy university students with driving experience. They collected EEG experiments in a virtual driving environment, and divided the collected EEG data into normal state and fatigue state. Fuzzy entropy was used for feature extraction; SVM was used as a classification tool. FP1 and FP2 electrode EEG signal was selected from the subject's EEG signal as analysis object. When single electrode signal was used as feature, accuracy of FP1 was higher than FP2, and if mixing FP1 and FP2 as feature, the accuracy is the highest, the average accuracy is 0.85 by 10-fold cross-validation in Prefrontal brain region. Although the signal classification accuracy of the prefrontal brain region is not the highest, from a practical point, the EEG classification accuracy can be used to detect fatigue.

Abstract
The definition of the depth of anesthesia (DOA) is still controversial and its measurement is not completely standardized in modern anesthesia. Power spectral analysis is an important method for feature detection in electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. Several spectral parameters derived from EEG have been proposed for measuring DOA in clinical applications. In the present paper, an improved method based on phase-rectified signal averaging (PRSA) is designed to improve the predictive accuracy of relative alpha and beta power, a frequency band power ratio, total power, median frequency (MF), spectral edge frequency 95 (SEF95), and spectral entropy for assessing anesthetic drug effects. Fifty-six patients undergoing general anesthesia in an operating theatre are studied. All EEG signals are continuously recorded from the awake state to the end of the recovery state and then filtered using multivariate empirical mode decomposition (MEMD). All parameters are evaluated using the commercial bispectral index (BIS) and expert assessment of conscious level (EACL), respectively. The ability to predict DOA is estimated using the area under the receiver-operator characteristics curve (AUC). All indicators based on the improved method can clearly discriminate the conscious state from the anesthetized state after filtration (p < 0.05). A significantly larger mean AUC (p < 0.05) shows that the improved method performs better than the conventional method to measure the DOA in most circumstances. Especially for raw EEG contaminated by artifacts, when the BIS index is used to indicate the consciousness level, the improvement is 7.37% (p < 0.05), 9.04% (p < 0.05), 18.46% (p < 0.05), 27.73% (p < 0.05), 14.65% (p < 0.05), 2.52%, 5.38% and 6.24% (p < 0.05) for relative alpha and beta power, power ratio, total power, MF, SEF, RE and SE, respectively. However, when the EACL is used to indicate the consciousness level, the improvement is 3.30% (p < 0.05), 16.69% (p < 0.05), 15.08% (p < 0.05), 34.83% (p < 0.05), 27.78% (p < 0.05), 5.89% (p < 0.05), 26.05% (p < 0.05) and 23.42% (p < 0.05). Spectral parameters derived from PRSA are more useful to measure the DOA in noisy cases.

Abstract
This study evaluated the depth of anesthesia (DoA) index using artificial neural networks (ANN) which is performed as the modeling technique. Totally 63-patient data is addressed, for both modeling and testing of 17 and 46 patients, respectively. The empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is utilized to purify between the electroencephalography (EEG) signal and the noise. The filtered EEG signal is subsequently extracted to achieve a sample entropy index by every 5-second signal. Then, it is combined with other mean values of vital signs, that is, electromyography (EMG), heart rate (HR), pulse, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and signal quality index (SQI) to evaluate the DoA index as the input. The 5 doctor scores are averaged to obtain an output index. The mean absolute error (MAE) is utilized as the performance evaluation. 10-fold cross-validation is performed in order to generalize the model. The ANN model is compared with the bispectral index (BIS). The results show that the ANN is able to produce lower MAE than BIS. For the correlation coefficient, ANN also has higher value than BIS tested on the 46-patient testing data. Sensitivity analysis and cross-validation method are applied in advance. The results state that EMG has the most effecting parameter, significantly.

Abstract
In order to build a reliable index to monitor the depth of anesthesia (DOA), many algorithms have been proposed in recent years, one of which is sample entropy (SampEn), a commonly used and important tool to measure the regularity of data series. However, SampEn only estimates the complexity of signals on one time scale. In this study, a new approach is introduced using multiscale entropy (MSE) considering the structure information over different time scales. The entropy values over different time scales calculated through MSE are applied as the input data to train an artificial neural network (ANN) model using bispectral index (BIS) or expert assessment of conscious level (EACL) as the target. To test the performance of the new index's sensitivity to artifacts, we compared the results before and after filtration by multivariate empirical mode decomposition (MEMD). The new approach via ANN is utilized in real EEG signals collected from 26 patients before and after filtering by MEMD, respectively; the results show that is a higher correlation between index from the proposed approach and the gold standard compared with SampEn. Moreover, the proposed approach is more structurally robust to noise and artifacts which indicates that it can be used for monitoring the DOA more accurately.
