Resumen:
Different techniques originated in information theory and tools from nonlinearsystems theory have been applied to the analysis of electro physiological time series. Severalclinically relevant results have emerged from the use of concepts such as entropy, chaos andcomplexity in analyzing electrocardiograms and electroencephalographic (EEG) records. Inthis work we develop a method based on the permutation entropy (PE) to characterize EEGrecords from different stages in the treatment of a chronic epileptic patient. Our results showthat the PE is useful for quantifying clearly the evolution of the patient along certain lapse oftime and allow visualizing in a very convenient way the effects of the pharmacotherapy.
