— Monitoring sleep depth with the BIS sensor
During surgery, we use the BIS sensor to monitor the patient's sleep depth in real time, ensuring an optimal level of anesthesia at all times.
What is the Bispectral Index (BIS)?
The Bispectral Index (BIS) is an advanced technological tool that provides a quantitative measure of the effect of anesthetic agents on the brain. It works by analyzing brain electrical activity (EEG) using a specialized algorithm and translating this information into a numerical value that reflects the patient's level of consciousness.
As measured?
The measurement is performed using a small sensor placed on the patient's forehead. This sensor continuously records the brain's electrical signal and transmits it to a monitor, which interprets the data using sophisticated algorithms to calculate the BIS index.
What is the BIS for?
The use of BIS during surgery allows:
- Precisely adjust the anesthesia dosage.
- Reduce the risk of intraoperative awareness.
- Promote a faster and safer postoperative recovery by avoiding the unnecessary administration of anesthetics.
Thanks to this technology, we ensure personalized, effective anesthesia with maximum control over patient safety.

“TIVA” (Total Intravenous Anesthesia) is a high-quality anesthesia. Its innovative technique avoids the use of anesthetic gases and the well-known headache, vomiting, nausea and discomfort that commonly used gases usually cause.
This is a type of anesthesia whose technique is much more demanding than common anesthesia with gases, since it introduces many variables such as: weight, age, height, sex, degree of hepatorenal insufficiency and the interferences of potentiation, synergy or antagonism of the drugs.
The patient is monitored throughout the intervention with the so-called BIS (Bi Spectral Index) that measures brain activity constantly.
Even when it comes to general anesthesia, our patients' experience with TIVA anesthesia has been excellent thanks to Dr. Bourgeois, a highly experienced professional who has mastered the technique perfectly.
Advantages of TIVA anesthesia over traditional anesthesia:
- Minimal cardiovascular depression
- Lower incidence of PONV (Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting)
- Greater safety and stability through continuous infusion of drugs at the same rate
- Decreased anxiety
- Greater sense of well-being
- There is no possibility of awakening in the intraoperative period
- Use drugs that are rapidly metabolized and eliminated
- There is no pollution of the environment or the surgical area.
- The patient wakes up calm with a high level of consciousness
All these advantages mean that at Dr. Sordo's clinic we are committed to a safe technique that offers greater comfort for our patients.
At Dr. Sordo's clinic, we treat scars to keep them to a minimum, regardless of the point of access. Once the breast reduction surgery is finished and while you are still under general anesthesia, we will apply our scar laser. This is an operating room laser that reduces scars by up to 30% by activating the healing process at that very moment.
You will be able to do light sports four weeks after the operation, as long as you do exercises that do not involve the activity of the pectoral muscles and do not produce vibrations in them.
