“…Since the brain is the effect-site of anesthetic drugs, commercially available anesthetic depth indicators employ different algorithms based on the analysis of spectral changes in electroencephalogram (EEG) [2]. However, this may give rise to erroneous DOA estimates in patients with abnormal EEG [3]. For instance, the bispectral index (BIS), a widely used anesthetic depth monitor, has been reported to underestimate or overestimate anesthetic depth in many clinical scenarios [3].…”

“…However, this may give rise to erroneous DOA estimates in patients with abnormal EEG [3]. For instance, the bispectral index (BIS), a widely used anesthetic depth monitor, has been reported to underestimate or overestimate anesthetic depth in many clinical scenarios [3]. Anesthetic drugs inhibit neuronal activity in the brain and affect cerebral metabolism [4][5][6].…”

“…BIS is a quantified parameter derived from EEG, and it provides a dimensionless number that varies from 0 to 100: 90-100 means a normal state; the lower the number below 90, the deeper the level of sedation; and 0 represents total suppression of cortical electrical activity. The FDA recommends the use of BIS to monitor the depth of anesthesia during surgery [3]. In recent years, the application of BIS has been more extensive, such as monitoring patients with epilepsy [4], and predicting prognosis of TBI [5,6-8].…”

“…BIS is also used as a tool to assess the sedation depth of TBI and guide the use of sedatives in some studies [3][4][5]. In this study, we presented a patient with refractory ICH due to TBI, and treated him with a combined strategy of sedation guided by BIS monitoring, ICP monitoring and mild hypothermia, a strategy producing a favorable outcome.…”

“…The BIS is a weighted sum of several electroencephalographic (EEG) parameters [8] and its value decreases linearly with the increasing of the DOA. Unfortunately, also these techniques return wrong estimations in clinical situations due to abnormal EEG patterns or to different anesthetics or to interferences by other drugs [9]. Then, a system able to balance the DOA by administering drugs on the base of their actual concentration in patient's blood could be really attractive for better practice in anesthesiology.…”
