Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Participants will receive auditory and visual stimuli of 10 seconds during four moments delivered by a rheatre nurse: before anesthetic induction, during anesthetic induction, during surgical incision, and upon awakening. During the four moments, the electroencegalographic signals will be recorded with 16-channel surface EEG located in a 10/20 system. Auditory stimuli of 20 db and light stimuli of 50 cd/m2 will be performed for each ear and for each eye, respectively.
