Neural signatures of loss of consciousness and its recovery by thalamic stimulation
2019-10-17
Abstract excerpt
We know that general anesthesia produces unconsciousness but not quite how. We recorded neural activity from the frontal, parietal, and temporal cortices and thalamus while maintaining unconsciousness in non-human primates (NHPs) with propofol. Unconsciousness was marked by slow frequency (∼1 Hz) oscillations in local field potentials, entraining local spiking to Up states alternating with Down states of little sp...
