The present study describes the electroencephalographic changes that occur during
cerebral ischemia and reperfusion in animals submitted to transient focal cerebral
ischemia by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) for 30 min. For this, male Wistar
rats were divided into two groups (n = 6 animals/group): (1) sham (control) group, and
(2) ischemic/reperfusion group. The quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG) was
recorded during the ischemic and immediate reperfusion (acute) phases, and then once a
day for 7 days after the MCAO (subacute phase). The acute phase was characterized by
a marked increase in the relative delta wave band power (p < 0.001), with a smaller, but
significant increase in the relative alpha wave bandpower in the ischemic stroke phase,
in comparison with the control group (p = 0.0054). In the immediate reperfusion phase,
however, there was an increase in the theta, alpha, and beta waves bandpower (p <
0.001), but no alteration in the delta waves (p = 0.9984), in comparison with the control
group. We also observed high values in the delta/theta ratio (DTR), the delta/alpha ratio
(DAR), and the (delta+theta)/(alpha+beta) ratio (DTABR) indices during the ischemia (p
< 0.05), with a major reduction in the reperfusion phase. In the subacute phase, the
activity of all the waves was lower than that of the control group (p < 0.05), although
the DTR, DAR, and DTABR indices remained relatively high. In conclusion, early and
accurate identification of decreased delta wave bandpower, DTR, DAR, and DTABR
indices, and an increase in the activity of other waves in the immediate reperfusion
phase may represent an important advance for the recognition of the effectiveness of
reperfusion therapy. |
