Both nonpharmacologic and pharmacologic interventions augment expression of EEG slow waves that mimic those of natural sleep. Closed loop auditory stimulation (CLAS) is a noninvasive inexpensive approach to augment the spectral power and duration of these slow waves. Whether in-phase CLAS may address this need is unknown, since acoustic potentiation of pharmacologically-induced slow waves has not been investigated. This prospective within-subject study of dexmedetomidine sedation paired with CLAS will assess the feasibility of augmenting EEG slow waves during sedation.
