Why the study?
Do different EEG entropy and complexity measures correlate differently with clinical depth of sedation scores in ICU patients?
Population
Patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) undergoing sedation
Comparison

Different EEG measures should not yet guide ICU sedation; leaves open optimal algorithm selection for depth tracking.
Do different EEG entropy and complexity measures correlate differently with clinical depth of sedation scores in ICU patients?
Different algorithms for calculating EEG entropy and complexity measure different signal properties and behave differently when assessing depth of sedation in the ICU.
Ferenets et al. (2006) studied this question.
