Abstract |
The paper presents different investigators' data on the use of the bispectral (BIS) index in children during anesthetic maintenance and intensive care. The most of publications deal with the use of the BIS index during anesthesia with sevoflurane, which shows its high efficiency in estimating the depth of sleep. There are positive aspects in the use of the BIS index in the evaluation of sedative tolerance and central nervous system function, when brain death is diagnosed, cerebral oxygenation adequateness, etc. Data are given on the ambiguity of BIS index values in infants less than a year of age.
