Anesthesia and the Brain - The safe and effective use of BIS™, Pt 3: BIS™ monitoring

For this segment of the discussion on anesthesia and the brain, we discuss how BIS™ monitoring can be used with other traditional monitoring parameters during anesthesia management. To help provide insight into this topic is Dr. Stephen Bader, Chief of Cardiothoracic Anesthesiology at Heritage Valley Health System in Beaver, PA. Brain monitoring is an adjunctive technology that should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis or clinical decision-making.
