Hypoxia-Induced Changes in the Electrocorticogram Power Spectral Profile of Rats

In animal studies, acute exposure to hypoxia results in cerebral depression. The purpose of this study was to quantify the effects of hypoxia on the central nervous system by a physiologic measure. The electrocorticogram (ECoG) was chosen as the functional measure. The data demonstrate that power sp...

Description
Summary:In animal studies, acute exposure to hypoxia results in cerebral depression. The purpose of this study was to quantify the effects of hypoxia on the central nervous system by a physiologic measure. The electrocorticogram (ECoG) was chosen as the functional measure. The data demonstrate that power spectral ECoG analysis of rats can quantify the onset and severity of hypoxia-induced brain impairment.
