A method and an apparatus for monitoring the sedation level of a sedated patient during anaesthesia, in particular during a pre-surgical phase. The method comprises the steps of providing a skin conductance signal measured at an area of the patient's skin, calculating a derivative signal of said conductance signal with respect to time, and establishing said sedation level based on said derivative signal.

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant de contrôler le niveau de sédation d'un patient sous sédatif pendant une anesthésie, en particulier pendant une phase pré-chirurgicale. Le procédé de l'invention comprend les étapes qui consistent : à obtenir un signal de conductance de la peau mesuré sur une zone de la peau du patient ; à calculer un signal dérivé dudit signal de conductance par rapport au temps ; et à établir ledit niveau de sédation en fonction dudit signal dérivé.
