Propofol, An Alternative to Amobarbital in Wadas Test in Electro corticography Based Epilepsy Surgery for Determining Dominance of Brain

Abstract

Amobarbital which is used rampantly for Wadas test is not available in Nepal and to find a dominant hemisphere in a functional Electro corticography (ECoG) based epilepsy surgery is a must. So we have used propfol under Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) for both cerebral hemisphere.Nepal Journal of Neuroscience. Vol. 13, No. 2, 2016, Page: 116-118
