The Effects of Glasgow Coma Scales and Bispectral Index on General Anaesthesia in Neurosurgery Patients.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Monitorisation under anaesthesia is important for objective evaluation in intracranial surgery. We investigated general anaesthesia management performed by bispectral index (BIS) monitoring in patients who underwent surgery due to intracranial pathology with different Glasgow Coma Scales (GCS).

Methods

Forty-five patients who had been planned to undergo intracranial surgery under general anaesthesia were included in the study. Patients were divided into three groups according to GCS: Group I (n ¼ 15) ¼ 13-15 mildly injured; Group II (n ¼ 15) ¼ 9-12 moderately damaged; Group III (n ¼ 15) ¼ 3-8 severely damaged. Heart rate (HR), mean blood pressure, and use of anaesthetic agent were recorded.

Results

It was found that the consumption of the inhalation agent in
