The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for monitoring the autonomous nervous system of a sedated patient. A skin conductance signal is measured at an area of the patient's skin during a measurement interval. A first measure and a second measure, both reflecting the state of the autonomous nervous system of the patient, is calculated by means of certain integral functions. The largest one of the first and second measures is then selected as the output signal (Y) that reflects the state of the autonomous nervous system of the sedated patient.
La présente invention concerne un procédé et un appareil pour surveiller le système nerveux autonome d'un patient endormi. Un signal de conductance cutanée est mesuré en un endroit de la peau du patient lors d'un intervalle de mesure. Une première mesure et une seconde mesure, reflétant toutes les deux l'état dudit système du patient, sont calculées au moyen de certaines fonctions intégrales. La plus grande des deux parmi la première et la seconde mesure est ensuite choisie comme signal de sortie (Y) qui reflète l'état du système nerveux autonome du patient endormi.
