Can electronarcosis induce deep enough sleep for surgery?

Yes: Patient is fully unconscious during the procedure, but no one even uses this anymore, so why the curiosity?

Electronarcosis: This is what russian scientists were apparently searching for. The issue is that the patient may be immobilized, but still feel pain. Not a good plan for surgery. One study compared electronarcosis to block anesthesia in removing antlers from wapiti (elk). The elk showed more reaction to the procedure with electronarcosis. http://tinyurl.com/mfpa97w i won't be volunteering for this.
