Pitfall of bispectral index during intraoperative seizure -a case report-
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report a case of a 42-year-old male who developed generalized tonic-clonic seizure with sudden, brief decrease in bispectral index (BIS) value while undergoing emergency kidney transplantation. Few reports have been made on intraoperative pitfall of BIS value associated with seizure. This case report suggests seizure should be taken into account as a reason for such brief fall of BIS, especially while under general anesthesia or in other specific cases in which clinical signs of seizure are unseen.

متن کاملBispectral index detects intraoperative cerebral ischaemia during balloon assisted cerebral aneurysm coiling
Bispectral index (BIS) is a monitoring modality designed and used for monitoring depth of anaesthesia. We wish to report a case where BIS monitoring may have alerted us to a potential adverse neurological event during angiographic coiling of a cerebral aneurysm.
متن کاملInterruption of bispectral index monitoring by nerve integrity monitoring during tympanoplasty -A case report-
We report that intraoperative NIM-2 monitoring devices can interfere with bispectral index monitoring. A 45-year-old male with chronic otits media underwent tympanolasty under general anesthesia with NIM-2 monitoring and bispectral index monitoring at our institution. And then, bispectral index monitoring was severely interrupted by facial nerve monitoring.
متن کاملIsoproterenol-induced elevated bispectral indexes while undergoing radiofrequency ablation: a case report.
The use of bispectral index (BIS) for monitoring neuronal function under general anesthesia has been expanding in practice. However, the meanings of the values are not always clear and have been shown to be altered by such drugs as ketamine, ephedrine, and physostigmine. Presented here is a case of increasing BIS in response to noradrenergic beta receptor stimulation via the administration of i...
متن کاملEpileptic seizure during anaesthesia induction with etomidate.
In this report a 20-year-old male patient who had suffered tonic-clonic seizure after a single induction dose of etomidate until a bispectral index value of 60 is presented. Our best knowledge, this case is the first report of pure etomidate (with induction dose) induced generalized tonic clonic seizure proven with EEG. Anaesthesiologists should be careful against such a complication even in th...
