Anesthesia & Analgesia, 11/19/09
Kaki AM et al. – Bispectral index (BIS) was developed to monitor patients’ level of consciousness under general anesthesia. Several factors have been found to alter BIS readings without affecting the depth of anesthesia. The authors conducted a study to assess the impact of changing patients’ position on BIS readings. Changing a patient’s position significantly affects the BIS values, which might affect the interpretation of anesthetic depth.
