NCT00226876

Brief Summary

Patients commonly report that they have been dreaming when they awaken from general anaesthesia. Our hypothesis is that patients who report dreaming are less deeply anaesthetised during anaesthesia than patients who do not report dreaming. Depth of anaesthesia will be determined using a processed electroencephalographic monitor (called the BIS monitor).
