1.10. The BIS™ Advance
Parameters
The BIS™ value (Bispectral Index) is a continuous processed EEG parameter that
correlates to the patient’s level of hypnosis, where 100 = awake and 0 = flat line EEG.
The BIS™ value was designed to correlate with “hypnotic” clinical endpoints
(sedation, lack of awareness, and memory) and to track changes in the effects of
anesthetics on the brain. The BIS™ value is displayed as a number in the upper left
corner of the screen and is plotted over time on the BIS™ Trend Graph. When signal
quality is too low to accurately calculate a BIS™ value, the BIS™ number is not
displayed.
