Sovra and Intra Tentorial Lesions
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of the study is to assess the reliability of Bispectral Index (BIS Vista , Covidien) in neurosurgical patients . BIS values at Loss of Consciousness (LOC), Post Intubation (PI) and Return of Consciousness (ROC) in neurosurgical patients are compared to those of non-neurosurgical patients, during routine anesthesia procedures.
Interventions
BIS values at LOC, PI, ROC.
