Bispectral-Electroencephalography (EEG) in First Time Hemodialysis

Sponsor: Suez Canal University

Summary

The severity of minimal dialysis disequilibrium syndrome (DDS) is currently detected and graded clinically using clinical criteria. Bispectral Index (BIS), an electroencephalographic (EEG) derived parameter is widely used in anesthesia and Critical Care setting to detect effects of anesthetic/hypnotic drugs. The aim of our study was to assess the discriminative power of BIS monitoring to accurately detect DDS.
