The purpose of this experiment is to characterize changes in brain electromagnetic activity in response to the administration of the two gaseous dissociative agents xenon and nitrous oxide to healthy participants in a two-way repeated measures cro

Simultaneous magnetoencephalography and electroencephalography provides a useful tool to search for common and distinct macro-scale mechanisms of reductions in consciousness induced by different anesthetics. This paper illustrates the empirical methods underlying the recording of such data from healthy humans during N-Methyl-D-Aspartate-(NMDA)-receptor-antagonist-based anesthesia during inhalation of nitrous oxide and xenon.
