  • Title: [Electroencephalographic surveillance during carotid endarterectomy].
    Author: Blondeau C, Hebert F, Ducasble G, Watelet J, Testart J, Samson-Dollfus D.
    Journal: Rev Electroencephalogr Neurophysiol Clin; 1982 Nov; 12(3):238-42. PubMed ID: 7156446.
    Abstract:
    Continuous EEG monitoring during 110 carotid endarterectomies showed transient or permanent abnormalities in 35 cases. In 13 cases, these abnormalities occurred during carotid clamping and led the surgeon to place a shunt in 8 cases. In 22 cases, electrical abnormalities of various types appeared outside the clamping period. Continuous EEG monitoring demonstrated that cerebral disturbances can occur at any time during the operative period. Thus, intra-operative EEG monitoring allows a better understanding of clinical signs which may be seen postoperatively.
