Anesthesiology report
This is from a hospital in Madrid, Spain (Hospital Universitario, Puerta de Hierro, Majadahonda).
The elderly patient was receiving an implant of a MitralClip when complications arose, so they were transferred to the cardiac surgery theatre. No idea what BIS, I'll post separate questions for "ARI", "VV", "VYED" and "VYI" (if needed). "ARI" could be "left radial artery", but the text already stated that the "RIGHT radial artery" had been cannulated.
INTRAOPERATIVE:
Balanced general anesthesia for EMERGENT mitral valve replacement + intra-aortic balloon pump ["AGM para RVMb +BIAoC EMERGENTE"]. Arrived intubated with vasoactive drugs at medium doses; standard monitoring + **** BIS + ARI, VV16G x2 + 18g + VYED 16G + VYI dcha.*****
It then uses a load more abbreviations to talk about the drugs administered.....
TIA.

BIS (bispectral index)
"Bispectral index (BIS) is one of several technologies used to monitor depth of anesthesia."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bispectral_index
It's BIS rather than BSI in English, and the same acronym seems to be used in Spanish:
"Profundidad de la hipnosis
–BIS"
https://www.academia.cat/files/425-11098-DOCUMENT/Anestesiae... (p. 23).
This fits, I think, because it's just after a reference to monitoring.
And ARI could be Anestesia regional intravenosa, if it's talking about anaesthesia here.

Note from asker:
| That makes a lot of sense Charles, thanks for your explanation. I'm short on time to do much investigating - I saw something about "Profundidad de la hipnosis" and immediately dismissed it... didn't twig that it was about levels of anaesthesia. Doh! |

ARI: arteria radial izquierda (canalizada arteria radial izquierda)
VV 16g x 2 + 18g: 2 accesos venosos periféricos de calibre 16 más un tercero de calibre 18
VYED 16g + VYI dcha: canalizada vena yugular externa derecha, calibre 16g + vena yugular interna derecha

I'm finding some evidence of intraoperative angiography, so I guess it's a good possibility.
Plus I've already assumed that "AGB" - anestesia general balanceada (sorry there's a mistake in my original question, I put "AGM"!)
You know what these reports are like... not exactly flowing prose.
It's an anaesthesiology report about complications during a basic heart procedure. And it just jumps around willy nilly...
But thanks to you two I think I've got it now, this part at least.
The examples I quoted of BIS with this meaning are in the context of heart surgery.
Unfortunately the link gives a 404 error...
Anyway "índice biespectral".... I'll look into it. Thanks.
Seems to be related to brain activity, not sure it fits with cardiological problems in my text...
