Dose-related effect of sevoflurane sedation on higher control of eye movements and decision making.
Saccadic latency may provide an objective method to assess sedative doses of anaesthetic on cortical oculomotor mechanisms and decision making. ⋯ Measurements of this kind could potentially provide estimates of cortical effects of sevoflurane sedation, and give a clinically useful measure of cognitive fitness.

We report a case of awareness detected by the Alaris AEP Monitor, a device that measures anaesthesia by tracking changes of the waveform of the mid-latency auditory evoked potential.
