Abstract

A 2-month-old infant underwent repair of a ventricular septal defect under deep hypothermic circulatory arrest. Bispectral index and EEG suppression ratio were evaluated using an Aspect BIS monitor. Erroneous readings from the monitor could have led to a potentially dangerous alteration in surgical and anaesthetic management.
