The invention relates to a method for consciousness monitoring, to a module for an EEG apparatus, and to a narcosis monitor. In a method for consciousness and/or pain monitoring, preferably for narcosis monitoring and for determining the states of being awake and being unconscious, EEG signals are evaluated by means of symbolic transfer entropy. The invention further relates to a module for analyzing EEG signals, having a data input that can receive and measure EEG signals, a computer unit that can evaluate EEG signals using a method according to one of the previous claims, and an output unit that can output an indicator value for differentiating between the states of being awake and being unconscious. The invention also relates to a narcosis monitor, which is designed to measure EEG signals and evaluate them by means of symbolic transfer entropy. |
