3 Fig 2 Alaris AEP monitor showing an AAI™ for this patient typically not greater than 12 at any time. The short period that was greater than 12 is most likely because of background activity or interference. There was complete absence of frontalis activity (indicated by the vertical bar to the right of the figure, labelled EMG and graded from 0 to 100%).
