We will be reviewing the different documented, non-pharmacological sources of artifacts affecting processed EEG monitoring and hypnotic index on the processed EEG monitors intraoperatively and in ICU. Questions that we aim to answer include but not limited to: 1) What are the different sources of artifacts causing unexpected deviation of the hypnotic index on the processed EEG monitoring in human patients in clinical settings undergoing anesthesia and/or intensive care? 2) How do these sources of artifacts/interference affect the processed EEG monitoring? 3) How do these sources of artifacts/interference affect the hypnotic index on the processed EEG monitor? 4) What is the suspected mechanism that these artifacts/interference sources affect the processed EEG monitor? We will not be focused on pharmacological sources that impact processed EEG monitor's hypnotic indices (i.e. ketamine).
