Abstract

[This corrects the article DOI: 10.1155/2018/1208401.].

Highlights

  • In ICU, BIS monitors are used in different contexts: when patients have intracranial hypertension, BIS and SR values are used to titrate barbiturate treatment [16, 17]; when patients have refractory status epilepticus, BIS and SR values are used to guide the depth of sedation if cEEG is not available because there is a strong correlation between BIS and SR values and the burst rate monitored with conventional EEG [18]

  • Neither BIS nor SR values changed markedly at the moment the real time EEG started to show seizure patterns, which means that the NCSE recurrence could have been missed or diagnosed with delay. e diagnostic value of the real time EEG of BIS monitor is high because it well diagnoses a recruiting rhythm, spikes, and spikes waves during generalized tonic-clonic seizures [15]
