Does BIS monitoring improve recovery from anesthesia?
A number of studies involving thousands of patients have shown the additional benefits to you when your anesthesia professional uses a BIS monitor to help adjust the amount of medications that you receive during your operation. Typically, the amount of medication given to you is reduced by one-fifth. As a result of this, you will generally wake up faster at the end of surgery, have less nausea and vomiting, and be able to leave the recovery room sooner. Improving the speed and quality of your recovery from general anesthesia, in addition to reducing the risk of awareness, are important benefits of your anesthesia professional using the BIS monitor during your operation.
