Welcome to EEG For Anesthesia
This activity will introduce you to the basics of using electroencephalography (EEG) to recognize the altered states of arousal caused by commonly used anesthetic drugs. The material will be presented using a series of 66 questions and explanations. Once you understand the material in the 66 questions, select Test to complete the activity. You must get 80% of the questions on the test correct to earn CME. You can take the test twice. If you do not get 80% correct in two tries, you will need to repeat the 66 questions before trying again.

For those unfamiliar with electroencephalography (EEG) and how EEG relates to anesthesia and common anesthetic drugs, we recommend watching the short introductory video series posted on this site. We also recommend reading the 2015 Anesthesiology review article “Clinical Electroencephalography for Anesthesiologists – Part 1: Background and Basic Signatures.”OK
