A marked decrease in bispectral index with elevation of suppression ratio by cervical haematoma reducing cerebral perfusion pressure

A 77-year-old man with a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm undergoing aneurysmectomy were anaesthetised with ketamine under bispectral index (BIS) monitoring, which is a clinical EEG monitor for measurement of depth of anaesthesia/sedation. First marked BIS reduction with elevation of suppression ratio (SR) was observed following severe hypotension by deflation of the aortic occlusion balloon. The re-inflation and rapid blood transfusion improved haemodyanamics and BIS and SR. At second marked BIS reduction with SR elevation, a heavy cervical swelling due to a massive subcutaneous haematoma around the previously mis-punctured right carotid artery extending throughout the whole neck was observed without hypotension. Cervical relief incision improved the BIS and SR. The present case suggests that BIS monitor may be a simple and convenient monitor for cerebral ischaemia detection.
