Measurement of cerebral oximetry by near-infrared spectroscopy provides continuous and non-invasive information about the oxygen saturation of haemoglobin in the central nervous system. This is especially important in the case of patients with traumatic brain injuries. Monitoring of cerebral oximetry in these patients could allow for the diagnosis of inadequate cerebral oxygenation caused by disturbances in cerebral blood flow. It could enable identification of episodes of hypoxia and cerebral ischemia. Continuous bedside measurement could facilitate the rapid diagnosis of intracranial bleeding or cerebrovascular autoregulation disorders and accelerate the implementation of treatment. However, it should be remembered that the method of monitoring cerebral oximetry by means of near-infrared spectroscopy also has its numerous limitations, resulting mainly from its physical properties. This paper summarizes the usefulness of monitoring cerebral oximetry by near-infrared spectroscopy in patients with traumatic brain injury, taking into account the advantages and the disadvantages of this technique.

The Impact of Blood Pressure Below Personalized Lower Cerebral Autoregulation Limit on Outcomes After Cardiac Surgery: A Retrospective Study.
J Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth

Department of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL. Electronic address:
Objective: The clinical importance of individualized blood pressure management in optimizing cerebral perfusion during cardiac surgery has been well established. However, consensus on blood pressure goals is lacking. The authors studied the associations between cerebral autoregulation metrics, hemodynamic parameters, and postoperative outcomes, and hypothesized that increased time of mean arterial pressure (MAP) below the lower limit of autoregulation (LLA) is associated with major morbidity and mortality (MMOM) incidence.

Introduction: Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is an autosomal dominant vascular disease and screening to detect pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) is important to prevent complications. In adults, transthoracic contrast echocardiogram (TTCE) is used to screen PAVMs. In children, a conservative screening method seems to be sufficient to rule out major PAVMs and prevent them from PAVM-related complications.

Objective: To identify clinicopathologic and genomic features associated with brain metastasis after resection of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and to evaluate survival after brain metastasis.
Methods: Patients who underwent complete resection of stage I-IIIA LUAD between 2011 and 2020 were included. A subset of patients had broad-based panel next-generation sequencing performed on their tumors.
Quantitative Electroencephalography Alpha:Delta Ratio and Suppression Ratio Monitoring During Infant Aortic Arch Reconstruction.
Pediatr Neurol
December 2024
Department of Surgery, University of Rochester Medical Center, Rochester, New York. Electronic address:
Background: During infant aortic arch reconstruction, traditional electroencephalography (EEG) provides only qualitative data limiting neuromonitoring efficacy. Interhemispheric differences in the alpha:delta ratio (ADR) and suppression ratio (SR) measured using quantitative EEG generate numerical trends that may suggest cerebral ischemia. We hypothesized that the ADR and SR during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) would correlate with hemodynamics, and that ADR and SR interhemispheric differences would precede neurological injury from infants requiring aortic arch reconstruction.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFIntroduction: Cerebral oximetry measurement using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been highlighted as a technology that can provide noninvasive information on regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) during CPR even though its effectiveness has not been fully confirmed. The research focuses on the use of NIRS to predict the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and neurological outcomes.
Objectives: The purpose of the study is to evaluate the validity of using regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) measurement compared to ETCO2 during CPR to and its association with ROSC, as well as to evaluate the neuroprognostic value of NIRS.
