Índice bispectral e outros parâmetros processados do eletroencefalograma: uma atualização

Abstract

Summary: Nunes RR, Chaves IMM, Alencar JCG, Franco SB, Oliveira YGBR, Menezes DGA – Bispectral Index and Other Processed Parame- ters of Electroencephalogram: an Update. Background and objectives: The processed analysis of electroencephalogram became extremely important to monitor nervous system, being used to obtain a better anesthetic adequacy. The objective was to conduct a review about each processed parameter, defining its real importan- ce. Content: A review was conducted showing mathematical, physical and clinical aspects as well as their correlations and updates, presentin g new integrated parameters. Conclusions: An adequate analysis of processed parameters of electroencephalogram may provide more intraoperative safety as well as result in a better outcome for the patient.
