Background: Neuropsychological dysfunction is a major cause of morbidity and mortality after cardiac surgery.
Aim: To evaluate if intraoperative cerebral desaturation and depth of anesthesia measured by bispectral index are related to postoperative cognitive dysfunction in cardiac surgery.
Material And Methods: Prospective study in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. A comprehensive neuropsychological assessment was applied preoperatively and 3 months after surgery. Postoperative dysfunction was defined as a decrease of at least one standard deviation in two or more neuropsychological tests. Cerebral oxygenation and bispectral index were continuously recorded and corrected throughout surgery. Cerebral oxygenation data were analyzed by the mean value and at three thresholds: 50%, 40% and < 25% of the basal value. Bispectral index was analyzed at threshold of 45.
Results: Fifty-six patients were initially enrolled and 48 completed the study. Nine of these (18.8 %) presented postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Mean cerebral saturation and bispectral index data were not different among the patients with or without cognitive dysfunction. There was no association between cerebral desaturation and bispectral index with changes in neurocognitive tests or with length of stay in the intensive care unit. A significant but weak correlation was found between baseline Ray-neurocognitive score and intensive care unit stay (rho = -0.46; P = 0.001).
Conclusions: We did not find a significant association between cerebral desaturation and depth of anesthesia with postoperative cognitive decline in this population of patients.

Neuromonitoring modalities predicting neurological impairment in pediatric congenital heart disease: a systematic review.

Unlabelled: The increased risk of neurodevelopmental impairment in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) has been established, but the search for targeted neurological predictors of adverse outcome is ongoing. This systematic review reports on the utility of three functional neuromonitoring modalities, Near-infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS), electroencephalography (EEG) and biochemical biomarkers, in predicting either clinical neurodevelopmental outcome or structural brain abnormalities after pediatric CHD surgery.

Objective: Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive tool providing real-time continuous measurement of regional cerebral blood oxygenation and indirect blood flow. The aim of this review is to determine the best evidence to guide the use of NIRS to detect and avoid abnormalities of cerebral perfusion and oxygenation in newborns with bradycardia.
Design: For this systematic review according to PRISMA Statement, we reviewed papers from 2000 to 2023.
Efficacy of Cerebral Oxygen Saturation Monitoring for Perioperative Neurocognitive Disorder in Adult Non-cardiac Surgical Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

Background: Perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) are common perioperative complications associated with various poor outcomes. Regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) monitoring is a non-invasive technique based on near-infrared spectroscopy detection. Due to the considerable controversy among currently published studies on the application of intraoperative rSO2 monitoring in adult patients undergoing elective non-cardiac surgery, this study aims to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to provide more comprehensive and robust evidence to support clinical decision-making.

Introduction: Respiratory adverse events are common during the sedation of preterm babies, often needing active airway support. During magnetic resonance imaging, this occurrence could extend the acquisition time, with a negative impact on the thermic and metabolic homeostasis. The aim of the study is to verify if lying in a lateral position instead of supine could improve the safe quality of sedation, without worsening the quality of imaging.

Article Synopsis
- Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is a risk factor for stroke and Alzheimer’s disease, particularly among Hispanic/Latino adults, highlighting the need for research on its impact on brain health in this demographic.
- This study, based on the Hispanic Community Health Study, analyzed the association between SDB and brain MRI measures in a diverse group of Hispanic/Latino adults, using data from 2,667 participants with neuroimaging conducted about 10 years after initial sleep assessments.
- Results indicated that higher respiratory event index (REI) correlated with larger hippocampal volumes, while lower oxygen levels during sleep were related to expanded white matter hyperintensity (WMH) volumes, suggesting complex relationships between SDB, oxygen
