ABSTRACT
Aim: To compare two main methods of two-dimensional measurement of fit at the implant prosthodontic interface, testing the hypothesis that optical microscopy (OM) can reliably and efficiently scanning electronic microscopy (SEM). Methods: Four frameworks with four titanium abutments joined with titanium bars were used. The implant-abutment interfaces were examined by three different methods, forming 3 groups: analysis by OM (40x), and analysis by SEM at 300x and 500x. Readings were taken at the mesial and distal proximal surfaces on the horizontal and vertical axes of each implant (n=32). One-way ANOVA with a significance level of 5% was used for statistical analysis. Results: Neither the horizontal fit nor vertical fit values of the 3 groups presented statistically significant differences (p=0.410 and p=0.543). Conclusions: OM was found to be an accurate two-dimensional method for abutment-framework or implant-abutment interface measurements, with lower costs than SEM. SEM micrographs at 500x presented technical difficulties for the readings that might produce different results.

O índice bispectral (BIS) é um parâmetro multifatorial que permite a monitorização da componente hipnótico da anestesia. O BIS provê medidas quantificáveis do efeito de anestésicos no cérebro que correlacionam com a profundidade da anestesia. A monito-rização da profundidade anestésica na indução e manutenção da anestesia geral previne consciência e despertar intraoperatório, permite titular a quantidade de anestésicos adequada para promover a rápida recuperação da anestesia e evitar efeitos adversos da superdosagem dos fármacos. Desde sua introdução, a monitorização com BIS vem se tornando comum na prática anestésica. Esta revisão tem o objetivo de elucidar o papel do BIS na monitorização da hipnose na anestesia geral. Foi realizada revisão sobre o conceito de anestesia geral e monitorização da profundidade anestésica com o uso do BIS, bem como atualizações dos benefícios de seu emprego para a qualidade da anestesia, interpretação dos artefatos e drogas que podem interferir na sua utilização...
The bispectral index (BIS) is a multifactorial parameter that allows monitoring of the hypnotic component of anesthesia. The BIS provides quantitiable measures of the effect of anesthetics in the brain that correia te with the depth of anesthesia. Monitoring anesthetic depth during induction and maintenance of general anesthesia prevents intraoperative awakening and conscience and allows to holder the amount of anesthetic agents appropriate to promote a speedy recovery of anesthesia and avoid adverse effects of an overdose of drugs. Since its introduction, the BIS monitoring is becoming acommonplace in anesthetic practice. This review has the objective of elucidating the role of BIS monitor- ing in hypnosis of general anesthesia. A Literature review was conducted on the concepts of general anesthesia and monitoring of anesthetic depth using the BIS Moreover, recent articles on studies of BIS and its benetits in the quality of general anesthesia as well as the presence of artifacts and drugs that may interfere in its utilization...
