Bispectral index is an accepted depth of anaesthesia monitor for guiding intraoperative hypnotic agent administration. Frontalis EMG displayed on
BIS
monitor may increase due to
twitching
of frontalis muscle. EMG increases are also known to cause artefactual increases in
BIS
values. We report a case of artefactual increase of EMG and subsequently
BIS
values, due to electrical artefact from cranial nerve stimulator being used to identify the facial nerve. An explanation of the effect of stimulator signal on
BIS
EMG and
BIS
values has been provided.
