title: [Neurometric analysis of brain function under general anaesthesia (author's transl)].
abstract: Neurometric analysis is a multi factorial investigation of brain functions by means of physiological and psychological methods. This kind of procedure was developed because measurement of brain blood flow, brain electrical activity and brain metabolism are not able to describe consciousness and pain. The combination of physiological and psychological tests enlarges the possibilities for anesthesiological research, the main result is that consciousness and pain are not separated brain functional processes. Pain is a perceptual behaviour which is subordinated to consciousness.
