Measuring Pain-Evoked Brain Activity in Neonates Using a Flat-Tip Probe Coupled to EEG

Source: Klarer, N. et al., Electrophysiological Measurement of Noxious-evoked Brain Activity in Neonates Using a Flat-tip Probe Coupled to Electroencephalography. J. Vis. Exp. (2017). This video demonstrates a method for measuring pain-evoked brain activity in infants. It outlines the procedure for positioning electrodes on the infant's head and applying pain stimuli to the infant's hand using a flat-tip probe. The video also shows the EEG recording process to identify brain activity in response to the stimuli.
