Key result
Large-scale trials show conflicting results regarding the utility of Bispectral Index (BIS) monitoring in preventing intraoperative awareness, though it is recommended during total intravenous anesthesia.
The review highlights that while BIS monitoring is used to prevent intraoperative awareness, evidence is mixed, and the 'triple low' state is not definitively linked to increased postoperative mortality, emphasizing the importance of careful vital sign observation.
