Spinal anesthesia is utilized as an alternative to general anesthesia in infants for some surgeries. After spinal anesthesia, infants often become less conscious without administration of sedative medications.

The aim of this study was to assess electroencephalographic (EEG) correlates after spinal anesthesia in a cohort of infants.

This pilot study included 12 infants who underwent spinal anesthesia. Unprocessed electroencephalography was recorded.

The electroencephalogram was interpreted by four neurologists. Processed analyses compared electroencephalogram changes 30 min after spinal anesthesia to baseline.
