Summary
It has been described that sympathetic activity, measured as changes in electrical skin
resistance (SR), may be used to assess the adequacy of general anaesthesia. Our prospective
study investigated how far measurements of skin resistance can help determine level of
sedation. The secondary aim was to investigate if changes in skin resistance can be used for
assessing recovery from anaesthesia.
