BIS Monitoring
10.1 Introduction
Bispectral index (BIS) monitoring is for use on adult and pediatric patients within a hospital
or medial facility providing patient care to monitor the state of the brain by data acquisition
of EEG signals.
The BIS, a processed EEG variable, may be used as an aid in monitoring the effects of certain
anesthetic agents. Use of BIS monitoring to help guide anesthetic administration may be
associated with the reduction of the incidence of awareness with recall during general
anesthesia or sedation.
The BISx equipment must be used under the direct supervision of a licensed healthcare
practitioner or by personnel trained in its proper use.
The measurement provides:
1. BIS EEG and BIS Trend waveforms;
2. Measured parameters: BIS, SQI, EMG, SR, SEF and TP.
