An Electrophysiological Marker of Arousal Level in Humans
2019-05-02
Abstract excerpt
Deep non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREM) – also called slow wave sleep (SWS) – and general anesthesia are prominent states of reduced arousal linked to the occurrence of slow oscillations in the electroencephalogram (EEG). Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, however, is also associated with a diminished arousal level, but is characterized by a desynchronized, ‘wake-like’ EEG. This observation challenges the notion of...
