Bispectral Index Monitoring

Bispectral Index (BIS) Monitoring is a technology used during anesthesia to measure the depth of a patient's unconsciousness. It analyzes brain activity through EEG (electroencephalogram) signals and assigns a numerical score from 0 to 100. Lower scores indicate deeper sedation, while higher scores suggest the patient is more awake. This helps anesthesiologists adjust medication levels precisely, ensuring the patient stays unconscious enough for surgery without receiving excessive drugs, reducing recovery time and side effects. BIS Monitoring enhances patient safety and improves anesthesia management during surgical procedures.
