Network Efficiency and Posterior Alpha Patterns Are Markers of Recovery from General Anesthesia: A High-Density Electroencephalography Study in Healthy Volunteers [PDF]
Recent studies have investigated local oscillations, long-range connectivity, and global network patterns to identify neural changes associated with anesthetic-induced unconsciousness.

We want to predict body weight while lying in bed for an elderly patient who is unable to move by himself/herself. To this end, we have implemented a prototype system that estimates the body weight of a person lying on a smart mat in nonrestraint and ...

Machine learning of EEG spectra classifies unconsciousness during GABAergic anesthesia.
In current anesthesiology practice, anesthesiologists infer the state of unconsciousness without directly monitoring the brain. Drug- and patient-specific electroencephalographic (EEG) signatures of anesthesia-induced unconsciousness have been identified

Comparison of the qCON and qNOX indices for the assessment of unconsciousness level and noxious stimulation response during surgery [PDF]
The objective of this work is to compare the performances of two electroencephalogram based indices for detecting loss of consciousness and loss of response to nociceptive stimulation.

Electrical stunning in South American catfish (Rhamdia quelen) using direct current waveform: welfare and meat quality [PDF]
: In Brazil, humane slaughter regulation is in use since 2000; however it is not applied to fish. This paper studied parameters for electrical stunning using direct current waveform in South American catfish (Rhamdia quelen) and its subsequent effects on

Neural effects of propofol-induced unconsciousness and its reversal using thalamic stimulation
The specific circuit mechanisms through which anesthetics induce unconsciousness have not been completely characterized. We recorded neural activity from the frontal, parietal, and temporal cortices and thalamus while maintaining unconsciousness in non ...

Modulatory dynamics mark the transition between anesthetic states of unconsciousness
Significance During unconsciousness maintained by GABAergic anesthetics (propofol and sevoflurane), the typical electroencephalogram signatures are slow-delta oscillations (0.3 to 4 Hz) and alpha oscillations (8 to 14 Hz) that at higher doses devolve ...

A critical component of anesthesia is the loss sensory perception. Propofol is the most widely used drug for general anesthesia, but the neural mechanisms of how and when it disrupts sensory processing are not fully understood.

Vision-Based Fall Detection Using ST-GCN
Falls are a growing issue in society and has become a hot topic in the healthcare domain. Falls are more likely to occur to due to age or health problems such as cardiovascular issues and muscle weakness. In this work we focus on fall detection.

Consciousness and Unconsciousness of Artificial Intelligence [PDF]
This paper presents the author’s attempt to justify the need for understanding the problem of multilevel mind in artificial intelligence systems. Thus, it is assumed that consciousness and the unconscious are not equal in natural mental processes.
