Different Conditions That Could Result in the Bispectral Index Indicating an Incorrect Hypnotic State
Abstract
Since its introduction in 1996, the Bispectral Index (BIS) has gained increasing popularity in daily anesthesia practice. However, numerous reports have been appearing in the literature of paradoxical BIS changes and inaccurate readings. The purpose of this review is to assess the utility of BIS monitoring through examining the various published reports of all BIS values not coinciding with a clinically judged sedative-hypnotic state, whether arising from an underlying pathophysiology of electroencephalographic (EEG) cerebral function or because of shortcomings in the performance and design of the BIS monitor. High electromyographic activity and electric device interference could create subtle artifact signal pollution without their necessarily being displayed as artifacts. This would be misinterpreted by the BIS algorithm as EEG activity and assigned a spuriously increased BIS value. Numerous clinical conditions that have a direct effect on EEG cerebral function could also directly influence the BIS value.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
