Description
Proven algorithm. Trusted insight.
Too much or too little anesthesia can be associated with challenges such as longer recovery times and postoperative neurocognitive disorders. The BIS™ technology is intended to reflect the anesthetic effect on each patient’s brain which helps you to personalize dosing to improve emergence and recovery times.1–4
- Use up to 38% less anesthetic agent.1,5–8
- Patients monitored with BIS™ technology have been shown to wake up 27–53% faster in the OR.1,7–9
- Postoperative delirium is reduced up to 29%.10
