Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cerebral autoregulation (CA) impairment may pose a risk factor for neurological complications among children supported by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Our first objective was to investigate the feasibility of CA continuous monitoring during ECMO treatment and to describe its evolution over time. The second objective was to analyze the association between CA impairment and neurological outcome. DESIGN Observational prospective study. PATIENTS AND SETTING Twenty-nine children treated with veno-arterial or veno-venous ECMO in the PICU of Nantes University Hospital, France, and the PICU of the IRCCS Giannina Gaslini Institute in Genoa, Italy. MEASUREMENTS A correlation coefficient between the variations of regional cerebral oxygen saturation and the variations of mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) was calculated as an index of CA (cerebral oxygenation reactivity index, COx). A COx > 0.3 was considered as indicative of autoregulation impairment. COx-MAP plots were investigated allowing determining optimal MAP (MAPopt) and limits of autoregulation: lower (LLA) and upper (ULA). Neurological outcome was assessed by the onset of an acute neurological event (ANE) after ECMO start. RESULTS We included 29 children (median age 84 days, weight 4.8 kg). MAPopt, LLA, and ULA were detected in 90.8% (84.3-93.3) of monitoring time. Mean COx was significantly higher during day 1 of ECMO compared to day 2 [0.1 (0.02-0.15) vs. 0.01 (- 0.05 to 0.1), p = 0.002]. Twelve children experienced ANE (34.5%). The mean COx and the percentage of time spent with a COx > 0.3 were significantly higher among ANE+ compared to ANE- patients [0.09 (0.01-0.23) vs. 0.04 (- 0.02 to 0.06), p = 0.04 and 33.3% (24.8-62.1) vs. 20.8% (17.3-23.7) p = 0.001]. ANE+ patients spent significantly more time with MAP below LLA [17.2% (6.5-32.9) vs. 5.6% (3.6-9.9), p = 0.02] and above ULA [13% (5.3-38.4) vs. 4.2% (2.7-7.4), p = 0.004], respectively. CONCLUSION CA assessment is feasible in pediatric ECMO. The first 24 h following ECMO represents the most critical period regarding CA. Impaired autoregulation is significantly more severe among patients who experience ANE.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been available in research and clinical practice for more than four decades. Recently, there have been numerous publications and substantial developments in the field. This article describes the clinical application of NIRS in relation to current guidelines, with a focus on pediatric and cardiac anesthesia. It discusses technical and physiological principles, pitfalls in clinical use and presents (patho)physiological influencing factors and derived variables, such as fractional oxygen extraction (FOE) and the cerebral oxygen index (COx). Recommendations for the interpretation of NIRS values in connection with influencing factors, such as oxygen transport capacity, gas exchange and circulation as well as an algorithm for cardiac anesthesia are presented. Limitations of the method and the lack of comparability of values from different devices as well as generally accepted standard values are explained. Technical differences and advantages compared to pulse oxymetry and transcranial Doppler sonography are illuminated. Finally, the prognostic significance and requirements for future clinical studies are discussed.

Abstract
With the aging of the world population, and improvements in medical and health technologies, there are increasing numbers of elderly patients undergoing anaesthesia and surgery. Perioperative neurocognitive dysfunction has gradually attracted increasing attention from academics. Very recently, 6 well-known journals jointly recommended that the term perioperative neurocognitive dysfunction (defined according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition) should be adopted to improve the quality and consistency of academic communications. Perioperative neurocognitive dysfunction currently includes preoperatively diagnosed cognitive decline, postoperative delirium, delayed neurocognitive recovery, and postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Increasing evidence shows that the gut microbiota plays a pivotal role in neuropsychiatric diseases, and in central nervous system functions via the microbiota-gut-brain axis. We recently reported that abnormalities in the composition of the gut microbiota might underlie the mechanisms of postoperative cognitive dysfunction and postoperative delirium, suggesting a critical role for the gut microbiota in perioperative neurocognitive dysfunction. This article therefore reviewed recent findings on the linkage between the gut microbiota and the underlying mechanisms of perioperative neurocognitive dysfunction.

Abstract
Importance Delirium occurs in up to 52% of patients after cardiac surgery and may result from changes in cerebral perfusion. Using intraoperative cerebral autoregulation monitoring to individualize and optimize cerebral perfusion may be a useful strategy to reduce the incidence of delirium after cardiac surgery. Objective To determine whether targeting mean arterial pressure during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) using cerebral autoregulation monitoring reduces the incidence of delirium compared with usual care. Design, Setting, and Participants This randomized clinical trial nested within a larger trial enrolled patients older than 55 years who underwent nonemergency cardiac surgery at a single US academic medical center between October 11, 2012, and May 10, 2016, and had a high risk for neurologic complications. Patients, physicians, and outcome assessors were masked to the assigned intervention. A total of 2764 patients were screened, and 199 were eligible for analysis in this study. Intervention In the intervention group, the patient's lower limit of cerebral autoregulation was identified during surgery before CPB. On CPB, the patient's mean arterial pressure was targeted to be greater than that patient's lower limit of autoregulation. In the control group, mean arterial pressure targets were determined according to institutional practice. Main Outcomes and Measures The main outcome was any incidence of delirium on postoperative days 1 through 4, as adjudicated by a consensus expert panel. Results Among the 199 participants in this study, mean (SD) age was 70.3 (7.5) years and 150 (75.4%) were male. One hundred sixty-two (81.4%) were white, 26 (13.1%) were black, and 11 (5.5%) were of other race. Of 103 patients randomized to usual care, 94 were analyzed, and of 102 patients randomized to the intervention 105 were analyzed. Excluding 5 patients with coma, delirium occurred in 48 of the 91 patients (53%) in the usual care group compared with 39 of the 103 patients (38%) in the intervention group (P = .04). The odds of delirium were reduced by 45% in patients randomized to the autoregulation group (odds ratio, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.31-0.97; P = .04). Conclusions and Relevance The results of this study suggest that optimizing mean arterial pressure to be greater than the individual patient's lower limit of cerebral autoregulation during CPB may reduce the incidence of delirium after cardiac surgery, but further study is needed. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00981474.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Correlation coefficients between blood pressure and cerebral oxygen saturation measured using near-infrared spectrometry may be used to derive the tissue oximetry index of cerebral autoregulation. Cerebral oxygen saturations demonstrate poor agreement between near-infrared spectrometers however it is unclear if measurements of autoregulation are similarly specific to the equipment used. METHODS Cerebral oxygen saturation was monitored bilaterally in 74 healthy volunteers using both the FORE-SIGHT and EQUANOX monitors in random order. The tissue oximetry index was calculated during changes in blood pressure induced by isometric handgrip manoeuvres and the mean bias and limits of agreement were calculated. RESULTS Tissue oximetry index measured by FORE-SIGHT was higher than EQUANOX (0.21 ± 0.16 versus 0.15 ± 0.17, P < 0.001) and limits of agreement were -0.24 to 0.36. Baseline cerebral oxygen saturation by FORE-SIGHT was lower than EQUANOX by 1.48% (CI95% 0.63-2.33) and limits of agreement ranged from -11.8% to 8.8%. CONCLUSIONS The substantial bias and wide limits of agreement for the tissue oximetry index as a measure of cerebral autoregulation indicate that values must be treated as specific to models of near-infrared spectrometers.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Despite restoration of adequate systemic blood flow in patients with shock, single organs may remain hypoperfused. In this review, we summarize the results of a literature research on methods to monitor single organ perfusion in shock. We focused on methods to measure heart, brain, kidney, and/or visceral organ perfusion. Furthermore, only methods that can be used in real-time and at the bedside were included. RECENT FINDINGS We identified studies on physical examination techniques, electrocardiography, echocardiography, contrast-enhanced ultrasound, near-infrared spectroscopy, and Doppler sonography to assess single organ perfusion. SUMMARY Physical examination techniques have a reasonable negative predictive value to exclude single organ hypoperfusion but are nonspecific to detect it. Technical methods to indirectly measure myocardial perfusion include ECG and echocardiography. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound can quantify myocardial perfusion but has so far only been used to detect regional myocardial hypoperfusion. Near-infrared spectroscopy and transcranial Doppler sonography can be used to assess cerebral perfusion and determine autoregulation thresholds of the brain. Both Doppler and contrast-enhanced ultrasound techniques are novel methods to evaluate renal and visceral organ perfusion. A key limitation of most techniques is the inability to determine adequacy of organ blood flow to meet the organs' metabolic demands.

What Is the Optimal Blood Pressure on Veno-Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation? Impact of Mean Arterial Pressure on Survival. ASAIO J 2020; 65:336-341.

Abstract
Blood pressure management is crucial for patients on veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO). Lower pressure can lead to end-organ malperfusion, whereas higher pressure may compete with ECMO flow and cardiac output. The impact of mean arterial pressure (MAP) on outcomes of patients on VA ECMO was evaluated. Patients who were supported on VA ECMO from September 2010 to March 2016 were retrospectively analyzed for average MAP throughout their course on ECMO, excluding the first and last day. Survival and complications observed during ECMO were investigated by classifying patients into groups based on their average MAP. A total of 116 patients were identified. Average MAP was significantly higher in patients who survived to discharge (82 ± 5.6 vs. 78 ± 5.5 mm Hg, p = 0.0003). There was a positive association between MAP and survival. Survival was best with MAP higher than 90 mm Hg (71%) and worst with MAP less than 70 mm Hg, where no patient survived. MAP was an independent predictor of survival to discharge by multivariate analysis (odds ratio 1.17, p = 0.013). Vasopressors were used more frequently in patients with lower pressure (coefficient -3.14, p = 0.005) without affecting survival (odds ratio 0.95, p = 0.95). Although the MAP did not affect the probability of strokes or bleeding complications, patients with a higher MAP had a lower incidence of kidney injury (p = 0.007). In conclusion, survival of patients on VA ECMO was significantly greater with a higher MAP, without being affected by prolonged vasopressor use.

Abstract
Surgery involving the use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) has long been associated with cerebral changes and may also contribute to adverse neurocognitive outcomes. However, there is a debate as to whether bypass itself is responsible for these changes. We conducted a systematic literature review on PubMed, supplementing our work with recent articles from other sources to examine the current evidence on neurocognitive decline associated with CPB. While surgeries involving CPB appear to be associated with cerebral changes and potentially with neurocognitive decline, it is unclear as to whether decline is related to the procedure itself. It is possible that the impacts of CPB can be more readily observed among individuals with preoperative cognitive impairment. It is thus important to screen for subtle and more apparent preoperative cognitive impairment as a risk factor for adverse outcomes. Further research, comparing on-pump and off-pump cohorts and involving intensive screening of preoperative cognitive decline, is indicated to elucidate the true neurocognitive consequences of the heart-lung machine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the effects of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy in the Trendelenburg position on postoperative neurocognitive outcomes this study compared cognitive function between patients who underwent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy and those who underwent open retropubic radical prostatectomy. METHODS Objective evaluations of pre- and postoperative cognitive function were performed upon admission and before hospital discharge, by using a neuropsychological test battery. We collected self-reported data on cognitive failures at 3 months postoperatively. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to assess the effects of surgical technique on postoperative cognitive performance. RESULTS The pre- and postoperative neuropsychological assessments were completed by 367 patients with a median age of 64 years (range 44-76). The incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction was 23.9% after robot-assisted (39/165) and 22.3% after open radical prostatectomy (45/202). There was no significant difference in postoperative cognitive function during the early postoperative period (P = 0.758) and self-reported cognitive failures at 3 months (P = 0.303) between robot-assisted and open surgery. Surgical technique was not associated with early postoperative cognitive dysfunction in multivariable analysis (OR 1.012, 95%CI: 0.608-1.685, P = 0.962). CONCLUSION Compared with open surgery in supine position postoperative neurocognitive disorders do not occur more frequently after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy in the extreme Trendelenburg position. Based on these findings potential adverse effects on cognitive function do not have to be considered in the choice of surgical approach for radical prostatectomy.

Glasgow Coma Scale Score Fluctuations are Inversely Associated With a NIRS-based Index of Cerebral Autoregulation in Acutely Comatose Patients. J Neurosurg Anesthesiol 2019; 31:306-310.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is an essential coma scale in critical care for determining the neurological status of patients and for estimating their long-term prognosis. Similarly, cerebral autoregulation (CA) monitoring has shown to be an accurate technique for predicting clinical outcomes. However, little is known about the relationship between CA measurements and GCS scores among neurological critically ill patients. This study aimed to explore the association between noninvasive CA multimodal monitoring measurements and GCS scores. METHODS Acutely comatose patients with a variety of neurological injuries admitted to a neurocritical care unit were monitored using near-infrared spectroscopy-based multimodal monitoring for up to 72 hours. Regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2), cerebral oximetry index (COx), GCS, and GCS motor data were measured hourly. COx was calculated as a Pearson correlation coefficient between low-frequency changes in rScO2 and mean arterial pressure. Mixed random effects models with random intercept was used to determine the relationship between hourly near-infrared spectroscopy-based measurements and GCS or GCS motor scores. RESULTS A total of 871 observations (h) were analyzed from 57 patients with a variety of neurological conditions. Mean age was 58.7±14.2 years and the male to female ratio was 1:1.3. After adjusting for hemoglobin and partial pressure of carbon dioxide in arterial blood, COx was inversely associated with GCS (β=-1.12, 95% confidence interval [CI], -1.94 to -0.31, P=0.007) and GCS motor score (β=-1.06, 95% CI, -2.10 to -0.04, P=0.04). In contrast rScO2 was not associated with GCS (β=-0.002, 95% CI, -0.01 to 0.01, P=0.76) or GCS motor score (β=-0.001, 95% CI, -0.01 to 0.01, P=0.84). CONCLUSIONS This study showed that fluctuations in GCS scores are inversely associated with fluctuations in COx; as COx increases (impaired autoregulation), more severe neurological impairment is observed. However, the difference in COx between high and low GCS is small and warrants further studies investigating this association. CA multimodal monitoring with COx may have the potential to be used as a surrogate of neurological status when the neurological examination is not reliable (ie, sedation and paralytic drug administration).

Sci Rep 2019; 9:19740.

Abstract
The brain has high oxygen extraction, thus the regional cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (rSO2) is lower than the central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2). We hypothesised that diabetes widens the physiological saturation gap between ScvO2 and rSO2 (gSO2), and the width of this gap may vary during various phases of cardiac surgery. Cardiac surgery patients with (n = 48) and without (n = 91) type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) underwent either off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) or other cardiac surgery necessitating cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) were enrolled. rSO2 was measured by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and ScvO2 was determined simultaneously from central venous blood. rSO2 was registered before and after anaesthesia induction and at different stages of the surgery. ScvO2 did not differ between the T2DM and control patients at any stage of surgery, whereas rSO2 was lower in T2DM patients, compared to the control group before anaesthesia induction (60.4 ± 8.1%[SD] vs. 67.2 ± 7.9%, p<0.05), and this difference was maintained throughout the surgery. After anaesthesia induction, the gSO2 was higher in diabetic patients undergoing CPB (20.2 ± 10.4% vs. 12.4 ± 8.6%, p < 0.05) and OPCAB grafting surgeries (17.0 ± 7.5% vs. 9.5 ± 7.8%, p < 0.05). While gSO2 increased at the beginning of CPB in T2DM and control patients, no significant intraoperative changes were observed during the OPCAB surgery. The wide gap between ScvO2 and rSO2 and their uncoupled relationship in patients with diabetes indicate that disturbances in the cortical oxygen saturation cannot be predicted from the global clinical parameter, the ScvO2. Thus, our findings advocate the monitoring value of NIRS in T2DM.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is defined as a prolonged cognitive function impairment that occurs within weeks to months of a surgical procedure. It is especially prevalent in the elderly population, leading to increased morbidity and mortality. As anaesthetic and surgical care continues to improve and become increasingly safer, a significantly greater number of older patients have elective surgical procedures today, yet this comes with an increased POCD risk as they go through the perioperative phases. Although the pathophysiology behind the development of POCD is still under investigation, current causative mechanisms include the mode of anaesthesia administered, anaesthetic used, cerebral hypoperfusion, hyperventilation and neuroinflammation. These findings lend an insight into the importance of being cognisant of the higher likelihood of POCD in at-risk patients, including the elderly, and taking precautions to include preoperative and postoperative cognitive testing, careful monitoring during anaesthesia, blood pressure control and early treatment of postoperative complications as they arise. In this review, we provide an update on the current understanding of the pathophysiology leading to POCD, identifying risk factors, prevention and treatment strategies, with a specific focus on the elderly population.

Abstract
Introduction The true influence of the low mean arterial pressure (low MAP) during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) on the development of postoperative cognitive deficit (POCD) remains controversial. We aimed to perform a meta-analysis and meta-regression to determine the effect of low MAP on POCD, as well as moderator variables between low MAP and POCD. Methods The Web of Science, PubMed database, Scopus and the Cochrane Library database (up to June 2018) were searched and retrieved articles systematically reviewed. Only randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing maintenance of low MAP (<80 mmHg) and high MAP (>80 mmHg) during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) were included in our final review. Statistical analysis of the risk ratio (RR) and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to report the overall effect. The overall effect and meta-regression analysis were done using Mantel-Haenszel risk ratio (MHRR) and the corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI). Results A total of 731 patients in three RCTs were included in this study. POCD occurred in 6.4% of all cases. Maintenance of low MAP did not reduce the occurrence of POCD (MHRR 1.012 [95% CI 0.277-3.688]; Z=0.018; P=0.986; I2=66%). Shorter CPB time reduced the occurrence of POCD regardless of group assignment (MH log risk ratio -0.519 [95% CI -0.949 - -0.089]; Z= -2.367; P=0.017). Conclusion POCD is a common event among CABG patients. The neuroprotective effect of low MAP on POCD was attenuated by the prolonged CPB time.

Abstract
Maintaining brain function and integrity is a pivotal part of anesthesiological practice. The present overview aims to describe the current role of the 2 most frequently used monitoring methods for evaluation brain function in the perioperative period, ie, electroencephalography (EEG) and brain oxygenation monitoring. Available evidence suggests that EEG-derived parameters give additional information about depth of anesthesia for optimizing anesthetic titration. The effects on reduction of drug consumption or recovery time are heterogeneous, but most studies show a reduction of recovery times if anesthesia is titrated along processed EEG. It has been hypothesized that future EEG-derived indices will allow a better understanding of the neurophysiological principles of anesthetic-induced alteration of consciousness instead of the probabilistic approach most often used nowadays.Brain oxygenation can be either measured directly in brain parenchyma via a surgical burr hole, estimated from the venous outflow of the brain via a catheter in the jugular bulb, or assessed noninvasively by near-infrared spectroscopy. The latter method has increasingly been accepted clinically due to its ease of use and increasing evidence that near-infrared spectroscopy-derived cerebral oxygen saturation levels are associated with neurological and/or general perioperative complications and increased mortality. Furthermore, a goal-directed strategy aiming to avoid cerebral desaturations might help to reduce these complications. Recent evidence points out that this technology may additionally be used to assess autoregulation of cerebral blood flow and thereby help to titrate arterial blood pressure to the individual needs and for bedside diagnosis of disturbed autoregulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Impaired cerebral blood flow (CBF) autoregulation during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with stroke and other adverse outcomes. Large and small arterial stenosis is prevalent in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. We hypothesize that large and/or small vessel cerebral arterial disease is associated with impaired cerebral autoregulation during CPB. METHODS A retrospective cohort analysis of data from 346 patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB enrolled in an ongoing prospectively randomized clinical trial of autoregulation monitoring were evaluated. The study protocol included preoperative transcranial Doppler (TCD) evaluation of major cerebral artery flow velocity by a trained vascular technician and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) between postoperative days 3 and 5. Brain MRI images were evaluated for chronic white matter hyperintensities (WMHI) by a vascular neurologist blinded to autoregulation data. "Large vessel" cerebral vascular disease was defined by the presence of characteristic TCD changes associated with stenosis of the major cerebral arteries. "Small vessel" cerebral vascular disease was defined based on accepted scoring methods of WMHI. All patients had continuous TCD-based autoregulation monitoring during surgery. RESULTS Impaired autoregulation occurred in 32.4% (112/346) of patients. Preoperative TCD demonstrated moderate-severe large vessel stenosis in 67 (25.2%) of 266 patients with complete data. In adjusted analysis, female sex (odds ratio [OR], 0.46; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.25-0.86; P = .014) and higher average temperature during CPB (OR, 1.23; 95% CI, 1.02-1.475; P = .029), but not moderate-severe large cerebral arterial stenosis (P = .406), were associated with impaired autoregulation during CPB. Of the 119 patients with available brain MRI data, 42 (35.3%) demonstrated WMHI. The presence of small vessel cerebral vascular disease was associated with impaired CBF autoregulation (OR, 3.25; 95% CI, 1.21-8.71; P = .019) after adjustment for age, history of peripheral vascular disease, preoperative hemoglobin level, and preoperative treatment with calcium channel blocking drugs. CONCLUSIONS These data confirm that impaired CBF autoregulation is prevalent during CPB predisposing affected patients to brain hypoperfusion or hyperperfusion with low or high blood pressure, respectively. Small vessel, but not large vessel, cerebral vascular disease, male sex, and higher average body temperature during CPB appear to be associated with impaired autoregulation.

Abstract
Importance Delirium occurs in up to 52% of patients after cardiac surgery and may result from changes in cerebral perfusion. Using intraoperative cerebral autoregulation monitoring to individualize and optimize cerebral perfusion may be a useful strategy to reduce the incidence of delirium after cardiac surgery. Objective To determine whether targeting mean arterial pressure during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) using cerebral autoregulation monitoring reduces the incidence of delirium compared with usual care. Design, Setting, and Participants This randomized clinical trial nested within a larger trial enrolled patients older than 55 years who underwent nonemergency cardiac surgery at a single US academic medical center between October 11, 2012, and May 10, 2016, and had a high risk for neurologic complications. Patients, physicians, and outcome assessors were masked to the assigned intervention. A total of 2764 patients were screened, and 199 were eligible for analysis in this study. Intervention In the intervention group, the patient's lower limit of cerebral autoregulation was identified during surgery before CPB. On CPB, the patient's mean arterial pressure was targeted to be greater than that patient's lower limit of autoregulation. In the control group, mean arterial pressure targets were determined according to institutional practice. Main Outcomes and Measures The main outcome was any incidence of delirium on postoperative days 1 through 4, as adjudicated by a consensus expert panel. Results Among the 199 participants in this study, mean (SD) age was 70.3 (7.5) years and 150 (75.4%) were male. One hundred sixty-two (81.4%) were white, 26 (13.1%) were black, and 11 (5.5%) were of other race. Of 103 patients randomized to usual care, 94 were analyzed, and of 102 patients randomized to the intervention 105 were analyzed. Excluding 5 patients with coma, delirium occurred in 48 of the 91 patients (53%) in the usual care group compared with 39 of the 103 patients (38%) in the intervention group (P = .04). The odds of delirium were reduced by 45% in patients randomized to the autoregulation group (odds ratio, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.31-0.97; P = .04). Conclusions and Relevance The results of this study suggest that optimizing mean arterial pressure to be greater than the individual patient's lower limit of cerebral autoregulation during CPB may reduce the incidence of delirium after cardiac surgery, but further study is needed.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-based monitoring of regional tissue oxygenation (rSO2) is becoming more commonplace in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). While increasing evidence supports rSO2 monitoring, actual standards for applying this noninvasive bedside technique continue to evolve. This review highlights the current strengths and pitfalls surrounding practical NIRS-based monitoring in the neonatal population. The physiologic background of rSO2 monitoring is discussed, with attention to understanding oxygen delivery/consumption mismatch and its effects on tissue oxygen extraction. The bedside utility of both cerebral and peripheral rSO2 monitoring in the NICU is then explored from two perspectives: (1) disease/event-specific "responsive" monitoring and (2) "routine," continuous monitoring. Recent evidence incorporating both monitoring approaches is summarized with emphasis on practical applicability in the NICU. Finally, a future paradigm for a broad-based NIRS monitoring strategy is presented, with attention towards improving personalization of neonatal care and ultimately enhancing long-term outcomes.

Abstract
Cerebral recanalization therapy, either intravenous thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy, improves the outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) by restoring the cerebral perfusion of the ischemic penumbra. Cerebral hemodynamic evaluation after recanalization therapy, can help identify patients with high risks of reperfusion-associated complications. Among the various hemodynamic modalities, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography perfusion, and transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) are the most commonly used. Poststroke hypoperfusion is associated with infarct expansion, while hyperperfusion, which once was considered the hallmark of successful recanalization, is associated with hemorrhagic transformation. Either the hypo- or the hyperperfusion may result in poor clinical outcomes. Individual blood pressure target based on cerebral hemodynamic evaluation was crucial to improve the prognosis. This review summarizes literature on cerebral hemodynamic evaluation and management after recanalization therapy to guide clinical decision making.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerebrovascular autoregulation can be continuously monitored from slow fluctuations of arterial blood pressure (ABP) and regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the index of dynamic cerebrovascular autoregulation (TOx) and the associated 'optimal' ABP in normal adult healthy subjects. METHODS Twenty-eight healthy volunteers were studied. TOx was calculated as the moving correlation coefficient between spontaneous fluctuations of ABP and rSO2. ABP was measured with the Finometer photoplethysmograph. The ABP with optimal autoregulation (ABPOPT) was also determined as the ABP level with the lowest associated TOx (opt-TOx). RESULTS Average rSO2 and TOx was 72.3 ± 2.9% and 0.05 ± 0.18, respectively. Two subjects had impaired autoregulation with a TOx > 0.3. The opt-TOx was - 0.1 ± 0.26. ABPOPT was 87.0 ± 16.7 mmHg. The difference between ABP and ABPOPT was - 0.3 ± 7.5 mmHg. In total, 44% of subjects had a deviation of ABP from ABPOPT exceeding 5 mmHg. ABPOPT ranged from 57 to 117 mmHg. CONCLUSIONS TOx in healthy volunteers on average displays intact autoregulation and ABP close to ABPOPT. However, some subjects have possible autoregulatory dysfunction or a significant deviation of ABP from ABPOPT, which may confer a susceptibility to neurological injury.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Central pulse pressure (PP), a marker of vascular stiffness, is a novel indicator of risk for perioperative morbidity including ischemic stroke. Appreciation for the mechanism by which vascular stiffness leads to organ dysfunction along with understanding its clinical detection may lead to improved patient management. RECENT FINDINGS Vascular stiffness is associated with increased mortality and neurologic, cardiac, and renal injury in nonsurgical and surgical patients. Left ventricular hypertrophy and diastolic dysfunction along with microcirculatory changes in the low vascular resistance, high blood flow, cerebral and renal vasculature are seen in patients with vascular stiffness. Pulse wave velocity and the augmentation index have higher sensitivity for detecting of vascular stiffness than peripheral PP as the hemodynamic consequences of vascular stiffness are secondary to alterations in the central vasculature. Vascular stiffness alters cerebral autoregulation, resulting in a high likelihood of having a lower limit of autoregulation more than 65 mmHg during surgery. Vascular stiffness may predispose to cerebral hypoperfusion, increasing vulnerability to ischemic stroke, postoperative delirium, and acute kidney injury. SUMMARY Vascular stiffness leads to alterations in cerebral, cardiac, and renal hemodynamics increasing the risk of perioperative ischemic stroke and neurologic, cardiac, and renal dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies have identified multiple risk factors for development of cognitive decline after surgery. Impaired cerebrovascular autoregulation may be a contributor to postoperative cognitive decline. METHODS One hundred and forty patients admitted for major elective noncardiac surgery were recruited. Near-infrared spectroscopy was used to calculate the tissue oxygenation index of dynamic autoregulation (TOx). The primary endpoint was Day 3 cognitive recovery as assessed using the Postoperative Quality of Recovery Scale. The secondary endpoint was a combined major adverse event of death, acute myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest, stroke, pulmonary embolism, sepsis, and acute kidney injury at Day 30. RESULTS Higher optimal TOx values, signifying impaired autoregulation, were associated with worse outcomes. Patients who cognitively recovered at Day 3 (n = 47) had lower optimal TOx values (TOxopt ) than patients who did not recover (n = 22): 0.06 (0.24) vs 0.18 (0.16) (mean [SD]), P = 0.02. Patients who did not suffer a major adverse event (n = 102) had lower TOxopt than patients who did (n = 17): 0.09 (0.21) vs 0.20 (0.27), P = 0.04. When dichotomized as having impaired or intact autoregulation based on TOxopt levels, a value of TOxopt ≥0.1 correctly identified 72.7% of patients who did not cognitively recover, OR 3.3 (1.1-9.9) (Odds ratio, [95% CI]), P = 0.03. TOxopt ≥0.1 correctly identified 82.4% of patients who suffered a major adverse event, OR 4.7 (1.3-17.2), P = 0.02. CONCLUSIONS In older and higher risk patients having major noncardiac surgery, impaired cerebrovascular autoregulation was associated with failure of cognitive recovery in the early postoperative period and with 1-month mortality and morbidity.

Abstract
As part of the American Society of Anesthesiology Brain Health Initiative goal of improving perioperative brain health for older patients, over 30 experts met at the fifth International Perioperative Neurotoxicity Workshop in San Francisco, CA, in May 2016, to discuss best practices for optimizing perioperative brain health in older adults (ie, >65 years of age). The objective of this workshop was to discuss and develop consensus solutions to improve patient management and outcomes and to discuss what older adults should be told (and by whom) about postoperative brain health risks. Thus, the workshop was provider and patient oriented as well as solution focused rather than etiology focused. For those areas in which we determined that there were limited evidence-based recommendations, we identified knowledge gaps and the types of scientific knowledge and investigations needed to direct future best practice. Because concerns about perioperative neurocognitive injury in pediatric patients are already being addressed by the SmartTots initiative, our workshop discussion (and thus this article) focuses specifically on perioperative cognition in older adults. The 2 main perioperative cognitive disorders that have been studied to date are postoperative delirium and cognitive dysfunction. Postoperative delirium is a syndrome of fluctuating changes in attention and level of consciousness that occurs in 20%-40% of patients >60 years of age after major surgery and inpatient hospitalization. Many older surgical patients also develop postoperative cognitive deficits that typically last for weeks to months, thus referred to as postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Because of the heterogeneity of different tools and thresholds used to assess and define these disorders at varying points in time after anesthesia and surgery, a recent article has proposed a new recommended nomenclature for these perioperative neurocognitive disorders. Our discussion about this topic was organized around 4 key issues: preprocedure consent, preoperative cognitive assessment, intraoperative management, and postoperative follow-up. These 4 issues also form the structure of this document. Multiple viewpoints were presented by participants and discussed at this in-person meeting, and the overall group consensus from these discussions was then drafted by a smaller writing group (the 6 primary authors of this article) into this manuscript. Of course, further studies have appeared since the workshop, which the writing group has incorporated where appropriate. All participants from this in-person meeting then had the opportunity to review, edit, and approve this final manuscript; 1 participant did not approve the final manuscript and asked for his/her name to be removed.

Abstract
Dynamic cerebral blood flow autoregulation is impaired on the first day following cardiac surgery. Autoregulation index before and after surgery is predictive of post-operative delirium. Patients with impaired dynamic cerebral autoregulation at 24 h and 7 days after surgery had a higher incidence of delirium.
Objective We investigated the potential association of cerebral autoregulation (CA) with postoperative delirium (PD), a common complication of cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Methods In patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery with CPB, cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) and blood pressure (BP) were continuously recorded during 5-min preoperatively (T1), after 24 h (T2), and 7 days after procedure (T3). Prospective multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the independent risk factors of PD. Autoregulation index (ARI) was calculated from the CBFV response to a step change in BP derived by transfer function analysis. Results In 67 patients, mean age 64.3 ± 9.5 years, CA was depressed at T2 as shown by values of ARI (3.9 ± 1.7), compared to T1 (5.6 ± 1.7) and T3 (5.5 ± 1.8) (p < 0.001). Impaired CA was found in 37 (55%) patients at T2 and in 7 patients (20%) at T3. Lower ARI at T1 and T2 were predictors of PD (p = 0.003). Conclusion Dynamic CA was impaired after CABG surgery with CPB and was a significant independent risk factor of PD. Significance Assessment of CA before and after surgery could have considerable potential for early identification of patients at risk of PD, thus reducing poor outcomes and length of stay.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Pulmonary hypertension portends worse outcomes in cardiac valve surgery; however, isolated pulmonary artery pressures may not reflect patients' global cardiac function accurately. To better account for the interventricular relationship, the authors hypothesized that patients with greater pulmonary-systemic ratios (mean pulmonary arterial pressure)/(mean systemic arterial pressure) would correlate with worse outcomes after valve surgery. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Single academic hospital. PARTICIPANTS The study comprised 314 patients undergoing valve surgery with or without coronary artery bypass grafting (2004-2016) with Society of Thoracic Surgeons predicted risk scores and preoperative right heart catheterization. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The pulmonary-systemic ratio was calculated as follows: mean pulmonary arterial pressure/mean systemic arterial pressure. Patients were stratified by pulmonary-systemic ratio quartile. Logistic regression was used to assess the risk-adjusted association between pulmonary-systemic ratio or mean pulmonary arterial pressure. Median pulmonary-systemic ratio was 0.33 (Q1-Q3: 0.23-0.65); median pulmonary arterial pressure was 29 (21-30) mmHg. Patients with the highest pulmonary-systemic ratio had the highest rates of morbidity and mortality (p < 0.0001). A high pulmonary-systemic ratio was associated with longer duration in the intensive care unit (p < 0.0001) and hospital (p < 0.0001). After risk-adjustment, pulmonary-systemic ratio and pulmonary arterial pressure were independently associated with morbidity and mortality, but the pulmonary-systemic ratio (odds ratio 23.88, p = 0.008, Wald 7.1) was more strongly associated than the pulmonary arterial pressure (odds ratio 1.035, p = 0.011, Wald 6.5). CONCLUSIONS The pulmonary-systemic ratio is more strongly associated with risk-adjusted morbidity and mortality in valve surgery than pulmonary arterial pressure. By integrating ventricular interactions, this metric may better characterize the risk of valve surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While urine flow rate ≤0.5 ml kg-1 h-1 is believed to define oliguria during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), it is unclear whether this definition identifies risk for acute kidney injury (AKI) . The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate if urine flow rate during CPB is associated with AKI. METHODS Urine flow rate was calculated in 503 patients during CPB. AKI in the first 48 h after surgery was defined by the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes classification. Adjusted risk factors associated with AKI and urine flow rate were assessed. RESULTS Patients with AKI [n=149 (29.5%)] had lower urine flow rate than those without AKI (P<0.001). The relationship between urine flow and AKI risk was non-linear, with an inflection point at 1.5 ml kg-1 h-1 Among patients with urine flow <1.5 ml kg-1 h-1, every 0.5 ml kg-1 h-1 higher urine flow reduced the adjusted risk of AKI by 26% (95% CI 13-37; P<0.001). Urine flow rate during CPB was independently associated with the risk for AKI. Age up to 80 years and preoperative diuretic use were inversely associated with urine flow rate; mean arterial pressure on CPB (when <87 mmHg) and CPB flow were positively associated with urine flow rate. CONCLUSIONS Urine flow rate during CPB <1.5 ml kg-1 h-1 identifies patients at risk for cardiac surgery-associated AKI. Careful monitoring of urine flow rate and optimizing mean arterial pressure and CPB flow might be a means to ensure renal perfusion during CPB.

Abstract
There is significant evidence that many older surgical patients experience at least a transient decrease in cognitive function. Although there is still equipoise regarding the degree, duration, and mechanism of cognitive dysfunction, there is a concurrent need to provide best-practice clinical evidence. The two major cognitive disorders seen after surgery are postoperative delirium and postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Delirium is a public health problem; millions of dollars are spent annually on delirium-related medical resource use and prolonged hospital stays. Postoperative cognitive dysfunction is a research construct that historically signifies decline in performance on a neuropsychiatric test or group of tests and begins days to weeks after surgery. This review focuses on the current state of information gathered by several interdisciplinary stakeholder groups. Although there is still a need for high-level evidence to guide clinical practice, there is an emerging literature that can guide practitioners.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) occurs in approximately 33-83% of patients after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Recent clinical data suggest that real-time, intraoperative monitoring of patient-specific cerebrovascular autoregulation (CA) may help to prevent POCD by detecting individual critical limits for mean arterial pressure (MAP) outside which CA is impaired. Objectives of the study were to detect the episodes of impaired CA during cardiac surgery with CPB, and to investigate the association between CA impairment and POCD. METHODS The observational study of non-invasive ultrasonic volumetric CA monitoring included 59 patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass graft surgery with CPB. All patients underwent series of neuropsychological tests the day before and ten days after the surgery in order to evaluate cognitive function. RESULTS Twenty-two patients (37%) experienced POCD, 37 patients (63%) showed no cognitive deterioration. The duration of the single longest CA impairment event was found reliably associated with occurrence of POCD (P<0.05). The critical duration of the single longest CA impairment event was 5.03 minutes (odds ratio 14.5; CI 3.9-51.8) for studied population. CONCLUSIONS Prospective clinical study showed that single longest CA impairment may result in post-operative deterioration of mental abilities. The duration of the single longest CA impairment event is the risk factor that is associated with POCD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Impaired cerebrovascular autoregulation (CVAR) is observed in up to 20% of cardiac surgical patients. This systematic review aims to evaluate the association between impaired CVAR, measured by current monitoring techniques, and patient-centred outcomes in adults following cardiac surgery. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE, PubMed, MEDLINE In-Process and Cochrane Library were systematically searched through 8 December 2017. Studies were included if they assessed associations between CVAR and patient-centred outcomes in the adult cardiac surgical population. The primary outcome of this systematic review was mortality. Secondary outcomes were stroke, delirium and acute kidney injury. Risk of bias was systematically assessed, and the GRADE methodology was used to evaluate the quality of evidence across outcomes. RESULTS Eleven observational studies and no randomised controlled trials met the inclusion criteria. Due to methodological heterogeneity, meta-analysis was not possible. There was a high risk of bias within individual studies and low quality of evidence across outcomes. Of the included studies, one assessed mortality, five assessed stroke, four assessed delirium, and three assessed acute kidney injury. No reliable conclusions can be drawn from the one study assessing mortality. Interpretation of studies investigating CVAR and stroke, delirium and acute kidney injury was complicated by the lack of standardisation of monitoring techniques as well as varying definitions of impaired CVAR. CONCLUSIONS There is a paucity of high quality evidence for CVAR monitoring and its associations with outcome measures in post-cardiac surgical patients, highlighting the need for future studies.

Abstract
Hemodialysis patients have multiple risk factors for small vessel cerebrovascular disease and cognitive dysfunction. Hemodialysis itself may cause clinically significant neurological injury through repetitive cerebral ischemia. However, supporting evidence to date consists of epidemiological associations, expert opinion, and small, single-centre studies of variable methodological quality. Isolating the impact of intra-dialytic hemodynamic instability from underlying renal and vascular disease on clinically relevant functional outcomes would require very large, controlled studies, given the heterogeneity and confounding comorbidities of the population, and the complex relationship between blood pressure and cerebral oxygen delivery. There has been an increase in complementary physiological studies looking directly at intra-dialytic cerebral oxygen balance, which have provided supporting evidence for the occurrence of cerebral ischemia, often independently of hemodynamics. Data suggesting a relationship between these measures of oxygen balance and functional outcomes is only hypothesis-generating at this stage. We advocate the testing of interventions that aim to reduce intra-dialytic cerebral hypoxia (rather than hypotension) in sufficiently powered studies, followed by correlation with validated, longitudinal assessment of clinically relevant neurological damage.

Background Pulse pressure, the ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI), and the symmetric AASI are established predictors of adverse cardiovascular outcomes. However, little is known about their relationship to cerebral autoregulation. This study evaluated whether these markers of vascular properties relate to the lower limit of cerebral autoregulation (LLA). Methods and Results The LLA was determined during cardiac surgery with transcranial Doppler ultrasonography in 181 patients. All other variables were calculated from continuous intraoperative readings obtained before cardiopulmonary bypass. The LLA varied directly with the AASI (β=3.12 per 0.1 change in AASI, P<0.001) and to a lesser extent the symmetric AASI (β=2.02 per 0.1 change in symmetric AASI, P≤0.022), while peripheral pulse pressure was not significantly related (β=0.0, P>0.99). Logistic regression revealed that the likelihood of LLA being >65 mm Hg increased by 50% (95% confidence interval, 11%–102%, P=0.008) for every 0.1 increase in the AASI. The AASI was able to predict a LLA above certain thresholds (area under the curve receiver operating characteristic for AASI predicting an LLA >65 mm Hg: 0.60; 95% confidence interval, 0.51%–0.68%, P=0.043). Incorporating additional variables improved the model's predictive ability (area under the curve for AASI predicting a LLA >65 mm Hg: 0.75; 95% confidence interval, 0.68–0.82, P=0.036). Conclusions These data indicate that the LLA is related to the mechanical properties of the vasculature as represented by the AASI. The AASI can be used to predict LLA threshold levels during cardiac surgery. It is now possible to link elevations in the LLA with an increased AASI as determined from readily accessible intraoperative variables.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW General recommendations for the perioperative management of patients with hypertensive disease have not evolved much over the past 20 years, yet new pathophysiological concepts have emerged and new monitoring techniques are available today. In this review, we will discuss their significance and potential role in the modern perioperative care of hypertensive patients. RECENT FINDINGS For hypertensive patients, total cardiovascular risk rather than blood pressure (BP) alone should determine the preoperative strategy. Except for grade 3 hypertension, surgery should not be deferred on the basis of an elevated BP in the preoperative assessment.New data suggest that even brief hypotensive episodes during surgery may have significant impact on outcome. Isolated systolic hypertension is the predominant phenotype in elderly patients who may be particularly vulnerable to hypoperfusion in the perioperative setting.New monitoring techniques such as echocardiography and near-infrared spectroscopy may provide crucial information to optimize intraoperative control of BP based on an individual patient's pathophysiology. SUMMARY Hypertension is highly prevalent in patients presenting for surgery yet its impact on surgical outcome is still debated. Guidelines on risk stratification and perioperative hemodynamic management of patients with hypertensive disease remain sparse and cannot rely much on solid new evidence. Target organ damage associated with hypertensive disease rather than high BP per se appears to determine perioperative risk. In the absence of new data, an individualized and pathophysiology-based approach to control BP may be the best option to guide these patients through the perioperative period.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Following adult cardiac surgery, often difficult to detect fluctuations in regional cerebral perfusion can contribute to strokes. Optimal cerebral perfusion remains elusive and traditional monitoring strategies do not consistently identify acute changes. Non-invasive cerebral oximetry may detect perfusion variations. OBJECTIVE To assess the feasibility of postoperative non-invasive cerebral oximetry monitoring. METHODS Non-invasive cerebral oximetry was performed on adult aortic valve surgery patients in a cardiac surgical intensive care unit. Monitoring feasibility was assessed using an investigator-developed, data extraction tool. RESULTS Non-invasive cerebral oximetry was completed in 94% of patients. Sixty percent had values that fell below pre-set ischemic threshold. Nurses reported monitoring was feasible, and they perceived identifying deleterious cerebral perfusion trends may improve patient care. CONCLUSIONS Prevalence of low cerebral oximetry values underscores the importance of increasing sensitivity of monitoring tools. Further evaluation is required to assess this modality and the role of nurses in optimizing neurocognitive outcomes. Impact statement: Cerebral oximetry monitoring may help identify adult patients at risk of neurological complications after cardiac surgery, and as a consequence initiate definitive therapeutic strategies.
