Update to the dataset of cerebral ischemia in juvenile pigs with evoked potentials

Abstract

We expand from a spontaneous to an evoked potentials (EP) data set of brain electrical activities as electrocorticogram (ECoG) and electrothalamogram (EThG) in juvenile pig under various sedation, ischemia and recovery states. This EP data set includes three stimulation paradigms: auditory (AEP, 40 and 2000 Hz), sensory (SEP, left and right maxillary nerve) and high-frequency oscillations (HFO) SEP. This permits derivation of electroencephalogram (EEG) biomarkers of corticothalamic communication under these conditions. The data set is presented in full band sampled at 2000 Hz. We provide technical validation of the evoked responses for the states of sedation, ischemia and recovery. This extended data set now permits mutual inferences between spontaneous and evoked activities across the recorded modalities. Future studies on the dataset may contribute to the development of new brain monitoring technologies, which will facilitate the prevention of neurological injuries.
