This Monitor Prevents Waking and Speeds Recovery

Few things are more frightening to prospective patients than the idea of "waking up" during surgery. Prevent those events and speed recovery times with Covidien's BIS Brain Monitoring Technology. The device collects raw EEG data from a sensor on the patient's forehead. A value of 100 means the patient is fully awake, whereas a zero reading indicates absence of brain activity. The device reduces awakening events by 80%. More than 39 million LOC sensors have been sold, with 80% of top ranked hospitals using them. BIS brain monitors are available as stand-alone units, or as a modular solution that can be integrated into leading manufacturers' monitoring systems.
