The BIS™ Advance Monitoring System is intended for monitoring the state of the brain by data acquisition of EEG signals under the direct supervision of a licensed healthcare practitioner or by personnel trained in its proper use. The BIS™ Advance Monitoring System, and all its associated parameters, is intended for use on adults and pediatric patients (4 years old and above) within a hospital or medical facility.
For Adult patients, the BIS™ Index, one of the BIS™ Advance Monitoring System's output parameters, may be used to guide anesthetic administration of desflurane, isoflurane, propofol and sevoflurane with balanced anesthetic techniques in order to monitor the anesthetic effects on the brain.
The use of the BIS™ Index for monitoring may be associated with the following when used with propofol anesthesia: reduction in primary anesthetic use; reduction in emergence and recovery time; and reduction in incidence of awareness with recall.
For pediatric patients, ages 4 and above, the BIS™ Index, one of the BIS™ Advance Monitoring System's output parameters, may be used to guide anesthetic administration of sevoflurane with balanced anesthetic techniques in order to monitor the anesthetic effects on the brain.
The use of the BIS™ Index in pediatric patients, when used with sevoflurane anesthesia, has demonstrated a reduction in primary anesthetic use.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
