Overview

BIS™ Brain Monitoring System

By providing insight into the direct and patient-specific effects of anaesthesia on the brain, the BIS™ brain monitoring system helps clinicians determine and administer the precise amount of drug to meet the needs of each individual patient, leading to increased patient anaesthesia satisfaction.

Advanced Monitoring for Improved Outcomes

Bispectral Index™ (BIS™) technology was the first clinically proven and commercially available direct measure of the effects of anaesthetics and sedatives on the brain.

BIS™ technology enables medical professionals to reliably gauge the precise amount of anaesthetic medication required by each patient, resulting in better overall patient care.

BIS™ Brain Monitoring

Confidently monitor and tailor safe, optimal anaesthesia for each patient with BIS™ brain monitoring.

Clinical Evidence

INTRAOPERATIVE AWARENESS PREVENTION

"The prospective studies incorporating BIS™ -based protocols provide proof of principal that a brain monitor can be effective in decreasing the incidence of AWR."([FOOTNOTE=Mashour GA, Shanks A, Tremper KK, et al. Prevention of intraoperative awareness with explicit recall in an unselected surgical population: A randomized comparative effectiveness trial. Anesthesiology. 2012;117:717-725.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=])

IMPROVING ANAESTHETIC DELIVERY AND POSTOPERATIVE RECOVERY

"Anaesthesia guided by BIS™ could improve anaesthetic delivery and postoperative recovery from relatively deep anaesthesia"([FOOTNOTE=Punjasawadwong Y, Phongchiewboon A, Bunchungmongkol N. Bispectral index for improving anaesthetic delivery and postoperative recovery. Cochrane Database of Syst Rev. 2007, Issue 4. Art. No.: CD003843. DOI: 10.1002/14651858.CD003843.pub2.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=])
