In veterinary clinical medicine, evaluating the balance between nociception and antinociception presents a great challenge for anesthesiologists during canine surgeries. Heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) are suitable indexes for monitoring noxious stimuli during anesthesia. Frontal electroencephalography (EEG) records, including processed parameters, are recommended for evaluating nociceptive balance in anesthetized unconscious human patients, which is unexplored in veterinary medicine. Therefore, the objective is to explore the response of processed EEG parameters to noxious stimulation and elucidate the impact of noxious stimulation on frontal cortical activity in dogs anesthetized with 1.5% isoflurane. Fourteen dogs were included and underwent frontal EEG monitoring, measuring the patient state index (PSI) and spectral edge frequency (SEF) before and after administering noxious stimulation using the towel clamp method on the tail of each 1.5% isoflurane-anesthetized dog. As the noxious stimulation was applied, there was a simultaneous increase in PSI, HR, and MAP, with PSI exhibiting a drastic response. SEF, especially on the left side, also increased with noxious stimulation. In EEG power spectral analysis, the delta band was decreased, and the alpha and beta bands showed an increase following noxious stimulation, with a more profound elevation of beta band on the left side. This study suggests that noxious stimulation brings asymmetric frontal cortical arousal, changing brain activity by suppressing delta wave and augmenting alpha and beta waves. Consequently, PSI seems to be a potential indicator for detecting stimuli in canine isoflurane anesthesia.
