To replace a faulty or damaged PIC:
1. Remove and discard the unusable cable.
2. Locate the end with a yellow dot on the PIC connector.
3. Engage the PIC connector and the DSC cable connector with the yellow dots
oriented the same way, ensuring that they are fully seated.
Patient Preparation
To prepare the patient for monitoring:
1. Make sure the skin surface is clean and dry.
2. Position BIS sensor circle #1 and BIS sensor circle #2 high on the center of
the patient’s forehead approximately 1.5 inches above the bridge of the nose.
3. Apply BIS sensor circle #3 on either temple between the corner of the patient’s
eye and the hairline.
4. Insert the tab into the patient interface cable until it is fully engaged (if you
prefer, you may do this step before applying the sensor to the patient).
5. Using your finger, trace around the adhesive areas of the sensor, including the
space between circles #1 and #2 to assure good adhesion and to prevent any
bridging between the sensor elements.
6. Press each circle firmly and hold for 5-seconds to assure adequate prepping
and to maximize sensor performance.
Initialization
Before processing data, the BIS sensor must be applied to the patient.
When the sensor is applied and the PIC and DSC are connected to the module,
you are ready to begin BIS monitoring.
1. Touch BIS.
2. Touch START PROCED
(refer to START/STOP PROCED Key on page 23-16).
3. Touch YES at the Clear Data? prompt, and the module will automatically
perform an impedance test.
CAUTION:
• The BIS sensor will only work if it is placed on the patient’s
forehead. Accordingly, it should not be used with any
surgical procedure that precludes such placement.
CAUTION:
• Do not expose the BIS sensor to surgical skin preparation
solutions. This may result in harm to the patient’s skin.
