From: Sedation assessment in a mobile intensive care unit: a prospective pilot-study on the relation of clinical sedation scales and the bispectral index

Figure 2

Boxplots showing relation between bispectral index (BIS) and Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS). Width of boxes is proportional to the square-roots of the number of measurements. As expected the higher the RASS value, the higher the median BIS. Estimates of the median BIS for positive RASS values lack precision as only few measurements were observed (6 measurements of a RASS of 1 and 2, respectively).
