Abstract
Cerebral blood flow (CBF) autoregulation is the physiologic process whereby blood supply to the brain is kept constant over a range of cerebral perfusion pressures ensuring a constant supply of metabolic substrate. Clinical methods for monitoring CBF autoregulation were first developed for neurocritically ill patients and have been extended to surgical patients. These methods are based on measuring the relationship between cerebral perfusion pressure and surrogates of CBF or cerebral blood volume (CBV) at low frequencies (<0.05 Hz) of autoregulation using time or frequency domain analyses. Initially intracranial pressure monitoring or transcranial Doppler assessment of CBF velocity was utilised relative to changes in cerebral perfusion pressure or mean arterial pressure. A more clinically practical approach utilising filtered signals from near infrared spectroscopy monitors as an estimate of CBF has been validated. In contrast to the traditional teaching that 50 mm Hg is the autoregulation threshold, these investigations have found wide interindividual variability of the lower limit of autoregulation ranging from 40 to 90 mm Hg in adults and 20-55 mm Hg in children. Observational data have linked impaired CBF autoregulation metrics to adverse outcomes in patients with traumatic brain injury, ischaemic stroke, subarachnoid haemorrhage, intracerebral haemorrhage, and in surgical patients. CBF autoregulation monitoring has been described in both cardiac and noncardiac surgery. Data from a single-centre randomised study in adults found that targeting arterial pressure during cardiopulmonary bypass to above the lower limit of autoregulation led to a reduction of postoperative delirium and improved memory 1 month after surgery compared with usual care. Together, the growing body of evidence suggests that monitoring CBF autoregulation provides prognostic information on eventual patient outcomes and offers potential for therapeutic intervention. For surgical patients, personalised blood pressure management based on CBF autoregulation data holds promise as a strategy to improve patient neurocognitive outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is believed to be relatively constant within an upper and lower blood pressure limit. Different methods are available to monitor CBF autoregulation during surgery. This study aims to critically analyze the application of the cerebral oxygenation index (COx), one of the commonly used techniques, using a reference to data from a series of clinical registrations. METHOD CBF was monitored using near-infrared spectroscopy, while cerebral blood pressure was estimated by recordings obtained from either the radial or femoral artery in 10 patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass. The association between CBF and blood pressure was calculated as a moving continuous correlation coefficient. A COx index > 0.4 was regarded as a sign of abnormal cerebral autoregulation (CA). Recordings were examined to discuss reliability measures and clinical feasibility of the measurements, followed by interpretation of individual results, identification of possible pitfalls, and suggestions of alternative methods. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION Monitoring of CA during cardiopulmonary bypass is intriguing and complex. A series of challenges and limitations should be considered before introducing this method into clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common surgical complication associated with increased morbidity and mortality in elderly. Although the underlying mechanisms remain elusive, perioperative risk factors were reported to be closely related to its development. This study was designed to investigate the association between the duration of intraoperative hypotension and POD incidence following thoracic and orthopedic surgery in elderly. METHOD The perioperative data from 605 elderly undergoing thoracic and orthopedic surgery from January 2021 to July 2022 were analyzed. The primary exposure was a cumulative duration of mean arterial pressure (MAP) ≤ 65 mmHg. The primary end-point was the POD incidence assessed with confusion assessment method (CAM) or CAM-ICU for three days after surgery. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) was conducted to examine the continuous relationship between the duration of intraoperative hypotension and POD incidence adjusted with patients' demographics and surgery related factors. Then the duration of intraoperative hypotension was categorized into three groups: no hypotension, short (< 5 mins) or long duration (≥ 5 mins) of hypotension for further analysis. RESULT The incidence of POD was 14.7% (89 cases out of 605) within three days after surgery. The duration of hypotension presented a non-linear and "inverted L-shaped" effect on POD development. Compared to no hypotension, long duration (adjusted OR 3.93; 95% CI: 2.07-7.45; P < 0.001) rather than short duration of MAP ≤65 mmHg (adjusted OR 1.18; 95% CI: 0.56-2.50; P = 0.671) was closely related to the POD incidence. CONCLUSION Intraoperative hypotension (MAP ≤65 mmHg) for ≥5 mins was associated with an increased incidence of POD after thoracic and orthopedic surgery in elderly.

Abstract
Cerebral vascular autoregulation is impaired following resuscitation from cardiac arrest (CA), and its quantification may allow assessing CA-induced brain injury. However, hyperemia occurring immediately post-resuscitation limits the application of most metrics that quantify autoregulation. Therefore, to characterize autoregulation during this critical period, we developed three novel metrics based on how the cerebrovascular resistance (CVR) covaries with changes in cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP): (i) θCVR, which quantifies the CVR vs CPP gradient, (ii) a CVR-based transfer function analysis, and (iii) CVRx, the correlation coefficient between CPP and CVR. We tested these metrics in a model of asphyxia induced CA and resuscitation using seven adult male Wistar rats. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) and cortical blood flow recorded for 30 min post-resuscitation via arterial cannulation and laser speckle contrast imaging, were used as surrogates of CPP and cerebral blood flow (CBF), while CVR was computed as the CPP/CBF ratio. Using our metrics, we found that the status of cerebral vascular autoregulation altered substantially during hyperemia, with changes spread throughout the 0-0.05 Hz frequency band. Our metrics push the boundary of how soon autoregulation can be assessed, and if validated against outcome markers, may help develop a reliable metric of brain injury post-resuscitation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hypotension is common during cardiac surgery and often persists postoperatively in the intensive care unit (ICU). Still, treatment is mainly reactive, causing a delay in its management. The Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) can predict hypotension with high accuracy. Using the HPI combined with a guidance protocol resulted in a significant reduction in the severity of hypotension in four non-cardiac surgery trials. This randomised trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the HPI in combination with a diagnostic guidance protocol on reducing the occurrence and severity of hypotension during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery and subsequent ICU admission. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is a single-centre, randomised clinical trial in adult patients undergoing elective on-pump CABG surgery with a target mean arterial pressure of 65 mm Hg. One hundred and thirty patients will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to either the intervention or control group. In both groups, a HemoSphere patient monitor with embedded HPI software will be connected to the arterial line. In the intervention group, HPI values of 75 or above will initiate the diagnostic guidance protocol, both intraoperatively and postoperatively in the ICU during mechanical ventilation. In the control group, the HemoSphere patient monitor will be covered and silenced. The primary outcome is the time-weighted average of hypotension during the combined study phases. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The medical research ethics committee and the institutional review board of the Amsterdam UMC, location AMC, the Netherlands, approved the trial protocol (NL76236.018.21). No publication restrictions apply, and the study results will be disseminated through a peer-reviewed journal. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER The Netherlands Trial Register (NL9449), ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05821647).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Historically, there have been few quantitative methods for effectively evaluating outcomes after surgery for craniosynostosis. In this prospective study, we assessed a novel approach for detecting possible postsurgery brain injury in patients with craniosynostosis. METHODS We included consecutive patients operated on for sagittal (pi-plasty or craniotomy combined with springs) or metopic (frontal remodeling) synostosis at the Craniofacial Unit at Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Gothenburg, Sweden, from January 2019 to September 2020. Plasma concentrations of the brain-injury biomarkers neurofilament light (NfL), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and tau were measured immediately before induction of anesthesia, immediately before and after surgery, and on the first and the third postoperative days using single-molecule array assays. RESULTS Of the 74 patients included, 44 underwent craniotomy combined with springs for sagittal synostosis, 10 underwent pi-plasty for sagittal synostosis, and 20 underwent frontal remodeling for metopic synostosis. Compared with baseline, GFAP level showed a maximal significant increase at day 1 after frontal remodeling for metopic synostosis and pi-plasty (P = 0.0004 and P = 0.003, respectively). By contrast, craniotomy combined with springs for sagittal synostosis showed no increase in GFAP. For neurofilament light, we found a maximal significant increase at day 3 after surgery for all procedures, with significantly higher levels observed after frontal remodeling and pi-plasty compared with craniotomy combined with springs (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS These represent the first results showing significantly increased plasma levels of brain-injury biomarkers after surgery for craniosynostosis. Furthermore, we found that more extensive cranial vault procedures resulted in higher levels of these biomarkers relative to less extensive procedures.

Intraoperative monitoring of cerebrovascular autoregulation in infants and toddlers receiving major elective surgery to determine the individually optimal blood pressure - a pilot study. Front Pediatr 2023; 11:1110453. [PMID: 36865688 PMCID: PMC9971954 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2023.1110453] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Accepted: 01/27/2023] [Indexed: 02/16/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Inducing general anesthesia (GA) in children can considerably affect blood pressure, and the rate of severe critical events owing to this remains high. Cerebrovascular autoregulation (CAR) protects the brain against blood-flow-related injury. Impaired CAR may contribute to the risk of cerebral hypoxic-ischemic or hyperemic injury. However, blood pressure limits of autoregulation (LAR) in infants and children are unclear. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this pilot study CAR was monitored prospectively in 20 patients aged <4 years receiving elective surgery under GA. Cardiac- or neurosurgical procedures were excluded. The possibility of calculating the CAR index hemoglobin volume index (HVx), by correlating near-infrared-spectroscopy (NIRS)-derived relative cerebral tissue hemoglobin and invasive mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) was determined. Optimal MAP (MAPopt), LAR, and the proportion of time with a MAP outside LAR were determined. RESULTS The mean patient age was 14 ± 10 months. MAPopt could be determined in 19 of 20 patients, with an average of 62 ± 12 mmHg. The required time for a first MAPopt depended on the extent of spontaneous MAP fluctuations. The actual MAP was outside the LAR in 30% ± 24% of the measuring time. MAPopt significantly differed among patients with similar demographics. The CAR range averaged 19 ± 6 mmHg. Using weight-adjusted blood pressure recommendations or regional cerebral tissue saturation, only a fraction of the phases with inadequate MAP could be identified. CONCLUSION Non-invasive CAR monitoring using NIRS-derived HVx in infants, toddlers, and children receiving elective surgery under GA was reliable and provided robust data in this pilot study. Using a CAR-driven approach, individual MAPopt could be determined intraoperatively. The intensity of blood pressure fluctuations influences the initial measuring time. MAPopt may differ considerably from recommendations in the literature, and the MAP range within LAR in children may be smaller than that in adults. The necessity of manual artifact elimination represents a limitation. Larger prospective and multicenter cohort studies are necessary to confirm the feasibility of CAR-driven MAP management in children receiving major surgery under GA and to enable an interventional trial design using MAPopt as a target.

Abstract
Cerebral blood flow is tightly regulated by cerebrovascular autoregulation (CVA), and intraoperative impairment of CVA has been linked with perioperative neurocognitive disorders. We aim to assess whether impairment of CVA during major oncologic surgery is associated with delayed neurocognitive recovery (DNCR) postoperatively. We performed a secondary analysis of prospectively collected data. Patients were included if they had undergone complete pre- and postoperative neuropsychological assessments, continuous intraoperative measurement of CVA, and major oncologic surgery for visceral, urological, or gynecological cancer. Intraoperative CVA was measured using the time-correlation method based on near-infrared-spectroscopy, and DNCR was assessed with a neuropsychological test battery. A decline in cognitive function before hospital discharge compared with a preoperative baseline assessment was defined as DNCR. One hundred ninety-five patients were included in the analysis. The median age of the study population was 65 years (IQR: 60–68); 11 patients (5.6%) were female. Forty-one patients (21.0%) fulfilled the criteria for DNCR in the early postoperative period. We found a significant association between impaired intraoperative CVA and DNCR before hospital discharge (OR = 1.042 [95% CI: 1.005; 1.080], p = 0.028). The type of surgery (radical prostatectomy vs. other major oncologic surgery; OR = 0.269 [95% CI: 0.099; 0.728], p = 0.010) and premedication with midazolam (OR = 3.360 [95% CI: 1.039; 10.870], p = 0.043) were significantly associated with the occurrence of DNCR in the early postoperative period. Intraoperative impairment of CVA is associated with postoperative neurocognitive function early after oncologic surgery. Therefore, intraoperative monitoring of CVA may be a target for neuroprotective interventions. The initial studies were retrospectively registered with primary clinical trial registries recognized by the World Health Organization (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifiers: DRKS00010014, 21.03.2016 and NCT04101006, 24.07.2019).

[PMID: 33485654 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2020.12.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2020] [Revised: 11/12/2020] [Accepted: 12/01/2020] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between low oxygen delivery (DO2) on cardiopulmonary bypass and morbidity and mortality following cardiac surgery remains unexamined. METHODS We reviewed patients undergoing Society of Thoracic Surgeons index procedures from March 2019 to July 2020, coincident with implementation of a new electronic perfusion record that provides for continuous recording of DO2 and flow parameters. Continuous perfusion variables were analyzed using area-over-the-curve (AOC) calculations below predefined thresholds (DO2 <280 mL O2/min/m2, cardiac index <2.2 L/min, hemoglobin < baseline, and mean arterial pressure <65 mm Hg) to quantify depth and duration of potentially harmful exposures. Multivariable logistic regression adjusted by Society of Thoracic Surgeons predicted-risk scores were used to assess for relationship of perfusion variables with the primary composite outcome of any Society of Thoracic Surgeons index procedure, as well as individual Society of Thoracic Surgeons secondary outcomes (eg, mortality, renal failure, prolonged ventilation >24 hours, stroke, sternal wound infection, and reoperation). RESULTS Eight hundred thirty-four patients were included; 42.7% (356) underwent isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), whereas 57.3% underwent nonisolated CABG (eg, valvular or combined CABG/valvular operations). DO2 <280-AOC trended toward association with the primary outcome across all cases (P = .07), and was significantly associated for all nonisolated CABG cases (P = .02)-more strongly than for cardiac index <2.2-AOC (P = .04), hemoglobin <7-AOC (P = .51), or mean arterial pressure <65-AOC (P = .11). Considering all procedures, DO2 <280-AOC was independently associated prolonged ventilation >24 hours (P = .04), an effect again most pronounced in nonisolated-CABG cases (P = .002), as well as acute kidney injury <72 hours (P = .04). Patients with glomerular filtration rate <65 mL/min and baseline hemoglobin <12.5 g/dL appeared especially vulnerable. CONCLUSIONS Low DO2 on bypass may be associated with morbidity/mortality following cardiac surgery, particularly in patients undergoing nonisolated CABG. These results underscore the importance of goal-directed perfusion strategies.

Abstract
Hemodynamic management based on cerebral autoregulation range is a possible strategy for preserving major organ perfusion during cardiovascular surgery. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relation of vascular properties with lower limit of cerebral autoregulation (LLA). LLA was monitored in 66 patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery using near-infrared spectroscopy. To determine the clinical importance of LLA monitoring, association of blood pressure excursions below LLA and acute kidney injury (AKI) was evaluated. Flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) were measured for the evaluation of endothelial function and aortic stiffness. Variables associated with LLA were evaluated. Excluding patients on hemodialysis, there were 15 patients (25.9%) who developed AKI. Blood pressure excursions below LLA were higher in patients who developed AKI (4.55 mm Hg × hr vs. 1.23 mm Hg × hr, P = .017). In the univariate analysis, prevalence of ischemic heart disease (No IHD: 53 ± 13.0 mm Hg vs. IHD: 60.0 ± 13.6 mm Hg, P = .056) and FMD (r = -0.42, 95% CI -0.61 to -0.19, P < .001) were associated with LLA before cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). During CPB, calcium channel blocker (No Ca blocker: 42 ± 10.6 mm Hg vs. Ca blocker: 49 ± 14.3 mm Hg, P = .033), diabetes (no DM: 44 ± 13.2 mm Hg vs. DM: 55 ± 10.0 mm Hg, P = .024), FMD (r = -0.32, 95% CI -0.55 to -0.05, P = .021), and PWV (r = 0.28, 95% CI 0.012 to 0.513, P = .041) were associated with LLA. Multivariate analysis showed that FMD was correlated with LLA before CPB (r = -2.19, 95% CI -3.621 to -0.755, P = .003), while PWV was correlated with LLA during CPB (r = 0.01, 95% CI 0.001-0.019, P = .023). Endothelial function and aortic stiffness may be important factors in determining LLA at different phases in cardiovascular surgery.

Effect of Targeting Mean Arterial Pressure During Cardiopulmonary Bypass by Monitoring Cerebral Autoregulation on Postsurgical Delirium Among Older Patients: A Nested Randomized Clinical Trial. JAMA Surg 2020; 154:819-826.

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.

Risk Factors for Delayed Neurocognitive Recovery According to Brain Biomarkers and Cerebral Blood Flow Velocity. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2020; 56:medicina56060288. [PMID: 32545416 PMCID: PMC7353900 DOI: 10.3390/medicina56060288] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2020] [Revised: 06/09/2020] [Accepted: 06/09/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: The aim of this study is to identify risk factors for the development of delayed neurocognitive recovery (dNCR). Methods: 140 patients underwent neurocognitive evaluations (Adenbrooke, MoCa, trial making, and CAM test) and middle cerebral artery (MCA) blood flow velocity (BFV) measurements, one day before cardiac surgery. BFV was re-evaluated after anesthesia induction, before the beginning, middle, end, and after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and postsurgery. To measure glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and neurofilament heavy chain (Nf-H), blood samples were collected after anesthesia induction, 24 and 48 h after the surgery. Neurocognitive evaluation was repeated 7-10 days after surgery. According to the results, patients were divided into two groups: with dNCR (dNCR group) and without dNCR (non-dNCR group). Results: 101 patients completed participation in this research. GFAP increased in both the non-dNCR group (p < 0.01) and in the dNCR group (p < 0.01), but there was no difference between the groups (after 24 h, p 0.342; after 48 h, p 0.273). Nf-H increased in both groups (p < 0.01), but there was no difference between them (after 24 h, p = 0.240; after 48 h, p = 0.597). MCA BFV was significantly lower in the dNCR group during the bypass (37.13 cm/s SD 7.70 versus 43.40 cm/s SD 9.56; p = 0.001) and after surgery (40.54 cm/s SD 11.21 versus 47.6 cm/s SD 12.01; p = 0.003). Results of neurocognitive tests correlated with CO2 concentration (Pearson's r 0.40, p < 0.01), hematocrit (r 0.42, p < 0.01), MCA BFV during bypass (r 0.41, p < 0.01), and age (r -0.533, p < 0.01). The probability of developing dNCR increases 1.21 times with every one year of increased age (p < 0.01). The probability of developing dNCR increases 1.07 times with a decrease of BFV within 1 cm/s during bypass (p = 0.02). Conclusion: Risk factors contributing to dNCR among the tested patients were older age and middle cerebral artery blood flow velocity decrease during bypass.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypotension is a frequent complication in the intensive care unit (ICU) after adult cardiac surgery.
AIM To describe frequency of hypotension in the ICU following adult cardiac surgery and its relation to the hospital outcomes.
METHODS A retrospective study of post-cardiac adult surgical patients at a tertiary academic medical center in a two-year period. We abstracted baseline demographics, comorbidities, and all pertinent clinical variables. The primary predictor variable was the development of hypotension within the first 30 min upon arrival to the ICU from the operating room (OR). The primary outcome was hospital mortality, and other outcomes included duration of mechanical ventilation (MV) in hours, and ICU and hospital length of stay in days.
RESULTS Of 417 patients, more than half (54%) experienced hypotension within 30 min upon arrival to the ICU. Presence of OR hypotension immediately prior to ICU transfer was significantly associated with ICU hypotension (odds ratio = 1.9; 95% confidence interval: 1.21-2.98; P < 0.006). ICU hypotensive patients had longer MV, 5 (interquartile ranges 3, 15) vs 4 h (interquartile ranges 3, 6), P = 0.012. The patients who received vasopressor boluses (n = 212) were more likely to experience ICU drop-off hypotension (odds ratio = 1.45, 95% confidence interval: 0.98-2.13; P = 0.062), and they experienced longer MV, ICU and hospital length of stay (P < 0.001, for all).
CONCLUSION Hypotension upon anesthesia-to-ICU drop-off is more frequent than previously reported and may be associated with adverse clinical outcomes.

Optimizing Mean Arterial Pressure in Acutely Comatose Patients Using Cerebral Autoregulation Multimodal Monitoring With Near-Infrared Spectroscopy. Crit Care Med 2020; 47:1409-1415.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study investigated whether comatose patients with greater duration and magnitude of clinically observed mean arterial pressure outside optimal mean arterial blood pressure have worse outcomes than those with mean arterial blood pressure closer to optimal mean arterial blood pressure calculated by bedside multimodal cerebral autoregulation monitoring using near-infrared spectroscopy. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING Neurocritical Care Unit of the Johns Hopkins Hospital. SUBJECTS Acutely comatose patients secondary to brain injury. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The cerebral oximetry index was continuously monitored with near-infrared spectroscopy for up to 3 days. Optimal mean arterial blood pressure was defined as that mean arterial blood pressure at the lowest cerebral oximetry index (nadir index) for each 24-hour period of monitoring. Kaplan-Meier analysis and proportional hazard regression models were used to determine if survival at 3 months was associated with a shorter duration of mean arterial blood pressure outside optimal mean arterial blood pressure and the absolute difference between clinically observed mean arterial blood pressure and optimal mean arterial blood pressure. A total 91 comatose patients were enrolled in the study. The most common etiology was intracerebral hemorrhage. Optimal mean arterial blood pressure could be calculated in 89 patients (97%), and the median optimal mean arterial blood pressure was 89.7 mm Hg (84.6-100 mm Hg). In multivariate proportional hazard analysis, duration outside optimal mean arterial blood pressure of greater than 80% of monitoring time (adjusted hazard ratio, 2.13; 95% CI, 1.04-4.41; p = 0.04) and absolute difference between clinically observed mean arterial blood pressure and optimal mean arterial blood pressure of more than 10 mm Hg (adjusted hazard ratio, 2.44; 95% CI, 1.21-4.92; p = 0.013) were independently associated with mortality at 3 months, after adjusting for brain herniation, admission Glasgow Coma Scale, duration on vasopressors and midline shift at septum. CONCLUSIONS Comatose neurocritically ill adults with an absolute difference between clinically observed mean arterial blood pressure and optimal mean arterial blood pressure greater than 10 mm Hg and duration outside optimal mean arterial blood pressure greater than 80% had increased mortality at 3 months. Noninvasive near-infrared spectroscopy-based bedside calculation of optimal mean arterial blood pressure is feasible and might be a promising tool for cerebral autoregulation oriented-therapy in neurocritical care patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare blood flow velocity changes in the middle cerebral artery before, during and after heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass for patients with and without postoperative cognitive dysfunction. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 100 patients, undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting or/and valve surgery enrolled in the study. A neurocognitive test evaluation included Adenbrooke, Mini-Mental State Examination and Trial Making test before and 7-10 days after surgery. Middle cerebral artery mean blood flow velocity was evaluated 1 day before the surgery, after anaesthesia induction, before cardiopulmonary bypass, at the beginning, ending and after cardiopulmonary bypass, and post surgery in intensive care unit. Blood samples for glial fibrillary acidic protein were measured after anaesthesia induction, 24 hours and 48 hours after surgery. According to neurocognitive tests results patients were divided in to two groups: patients with and without postoperative cognitive dysfunction. RESULTS Of the 100, 86 patients completed investigation. After induction, blood flow velocity of the middle cerebral artery was lower in postoperative cognitive dysfunction group (41.2; min 27.91, max 49.47) than in the H group (41.2, min 21.9, max 84.3) p = 0.034, and during cardiopulmonary bypass, blood flow velocity of the middle cerebral artery was lower in the postoperative cognitive dysfunction group (37.35, min 26.6, max 44.02) than the H group (42.3, min 20.1, max 86.5), p = 0.001. After the surgery, blood flow velocity of the middle cerebral artery was lower in the postoperative cognitive dysfunction group (40.7, min 29.7, max 50.4) than in the H group (45.3, min 34.12, max 59.88), p = 0.05. Results of cognitive tests had weak correlation (rho, 0.391) with middle cerebral artery's blood flow velocity after anaesthesia induction (p = 0.001) and during bypass (p = 0.018). The receiver operating characteristic analysis showed that the blood flow velocity of the middle cerebral artery during bypass (area under the curve = 0.735) was a fair predictor for postoperative cognitive dysfunction (p = 0.001). No significant correlations were found among glial fibrillary acidic protein, middle cerebral artery blood flow velocity, and cognitive tests results. CONCLUSION Middle cerebral artery's blood flow velocity was decreased after anaesthesia induction and during cardiopulmonary bypass for patients with postoperative cognitive dysfunction comparing with their blood flow velocity preoperatively. Blood flow velocity during bypass has diagnostic value for postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Brain biomarker glial fibrillary acidic protein is not helpful in diagnosing postoperative cognitive dysfunction.

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).

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. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00981474.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the association between novel pre- and post-operative biomarker levels and 30-day unplanned readmission or mortality after paediatric congenital heart surgery. METHODS Children aged 18 years or younger undergoing congenital heart surgery (n = 162) at Johns Hopkins Hospital from 2010 to 2014 were enrolled in the prospective cohort. Collected novel pre- and post-operative biomarkers include soluble suppression of tumorgenicity 2, galectin-3, N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide, and glial fibrillary acidic protein. A model based on clinical variables from the Society of Thoracic Surgery database was developed and evaluated against two augmented models. RESULTS Unplanned readmission or mortality within 30 days of cardiac surgery occurred among 21 (13%) children. The clinical model augmented with pre-operative biomarkers demonstrated a statistically significant improvement over the clinical model alone with a receiver-operating characteristics curve of 0.754 (95% confidence interval: 0.65-0.86) compared to 0.617 (95% confidence interval: 0.47-0.76; p-value: 0.012). The clinical model augmented with pre- and post-operative biomarkers demonstrated a significant improvement over the clinical model alone, with a receiver-operating characteristics curve of 0.802 (95% confidence interval: 0.72-0.89; p-value: 0.003). CONCLUSIONS Novel biomarkers add significant predictive value when assessing the likelihood of unplanned readmission or mortality after paediatric congenital heart surgery. Further exploration of the utility of these novel biomarkers during the pre- or post-operative period to identify early risk of mortality or readmission will aid in determining the clinical utility and application of these biomarkers into routine risk assessment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Impaired cerebral autoregulation and cerebral hypoperfusion may play a critical role in the high morbidity and mortality in patients with sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE). Bedside assessment of cerebral autoregulation may help individualize hemodynamic targets that optimize brain perfusion. We hypothesize that near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-derived cerebral oximetry can identify blood pressure ranges that enhance autoregulation in patients with SAE and that disturbances in autoregulation are associated with severity of encephalopathy. METHODS Adult patients with acute encephalopathy directly attributable to sepsis were followed using NIRS-based multimodal monitoring for 12 consecutive hours. We used the correlation in time between regional cerebral oxygen saturation and mean arterial pressure (MAP) to determine the cerebral oximetry index (COx) as a measure of cerebral autoregulation. Autoregulation curves were constructed for each patient with averaged COx values sorted by MAP in 3 sequential 4-hour periods; the optimal pressure (MAPOPT), defined as the MAP associated with most robust autoregulation (lowest COx), was identified in each period. Severity of encephalopathy was measured with Glasgow coma scale (GCS). RESULTS Six patients with extracranial sepsis met the stringent criteria specified, including no pharmacological sedation or neurologic premorbidity. Optimal MAP was identified in all patients and ranged from 55 to 115 mmHg. Additionally, MAPOPT varied within individual patients over time during monitoring. Disturbed autoregulation, based on COx, was associated with worse neurologic status (GCS < 13) both with and without controlling for age and severity of sepsis (adjusted odds ratio [OR]: 2.11; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.77-2.52; P < .001; OR: 2.97; 95% CI: 1.63-5.43; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS In this high-fidelity group of patients with SAE, continuous, NIRS-based monitoring can identify blood pressure ranges that improve autoregulation. This is important given the association between cerebral autoregulatory function and severity of encephalopathy. Individualizing blood pressure goals using bedside autoregulation monitoring may better preserve cerebral perfusion in SAE than current practice.

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 Neurodevelopmental disability is the most significant complication for survivors of infant surgery for congenital heart disease. In this study we sought to determine if perioperative circulating brain injury biomarker levels are associated with neurodevelopmental outcomes at 12 months. METHODS A secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial of neonates who underwent cardiac surgery was performed. Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) was measured: (1) before skin incision; (2) immediately after bypass; (3) 4 and (4) 24 hours postoperatively. Linear regression models were used to determine an association with the highest levels of GFAP and Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development third edition (BSID) composite scores. RESULTS There were 97 subjects who had cardiac surgery at a mean age of 9 ± 6 days and completed a BSID at 12.5 ± 0.6 months of age. Median (25th-75th percentile) levels of GFAP were 0.01 (0.01-0.02), 0.85 (0.40-1.55), 0.07 (0.05-0.11), and 0.03 (0.02-0.04) ng/mL at the 4 time points, respectively. In univariate analysis GFAP was negatively associated with cognitive, language, and motor composite scores. GFAP levels immediately after bypass differed between institutions; 1.57 (0.92-2.48) versus 0.77 (0.36-1.21) ng/mL (P = .01). After adjusting for center and potential confounders, GFAP was independently associated with BSID motor score (P = .04). CONCLUSIONS Higher GFAP levels at the time of neonatal cardiac operations were independently associated with decreased BSID motor scores at 12 months. GFAP might serve as a diagnostic means to acutely identify perioperative brain-specific injury and serve as a benchmark of therapeutic efficacy for investigational treatments, discriminate center-specific effects, and provide early prognostic information for intervention.

Abstract
Background Low bispectral index (BIS) and low mean arterial pressure (MAP) are associated with worse outcomes after surgery. We tested the hypothesis that a combination of these risk factors, a 'double low', is associated with death and major complications after cardiac surgery. Methods We used data from 8239 cardiac surgical patients from two US hospitals. The primary outcomes were 30-day mortality and a composite of in-hospital mortality and morbidity. We examined whether patients who had a case-averaged double low, defined as time-weighted average BIS and MAP (calculated over an entire case) below the sample mean but not in the reference group, had increased risk of the primary outcomes compared with patients whose BIS and/or MAP were at or higher than the sample mean. We also examined whether a prolonged cumulative duration of a concurrent double low (simultaneous low MAP and BIS) increased the risk of the primary outcomes. Results Case-averaged double low was not associated with increased risk of 30-day mortality {odds ratio [OR] 1.73 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.94-3.18] vs reference; P =0.01} or the composite of in-hospital mortality and morbidity [OR 1.47 (95% CI 0.98-2.20); P =0.01] after correction for multiple outcomes. A prolonged concurrent double low was associated with 30-day mortality [OR 1.06 (95% CI 1.01-1.11) per 10-min increase; P =0.001] and the composite of in-hospital mortality and morbidity [OR 1.04 (95% CI 1.01-1.07), P =0.004]. Conclusions A prolonged concurrent double low, but not a case-averaged double low, was associated with higher morbidity and mortality after cardiac surgery.

Abstract
For half a century, it has been known that some patients experience neurocognitive dysfunction after cardiac surgery; however, defining its incidence, course, and causes remains challenging and controversial. Various terms have been used to describe neurocognitive dysfunction at different times after cardiac surgery, ranging from "postoperative delirium" to "postoperative cognitive dysfunction or decline." Delirium is a clinical diagnosis included in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5). Postoperative cognitive dysfunction is not included in the DSM-5 and has been heterogeneously defined, though a recent international nomenclature effort has proposed standardized definitions for it. Here, the authors discuss pathophysiologic mechanisms that may underlie these complications, review the literature on methods to prevent them, and discuss novel approaches to understand their etiology that may lead to novel treatment strategies. Future studies should measure both delirium and postoperative cognitive dysfunction to help clarify the relationship between these important postoperative complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcranial Doppler (TCD) noninvasively measures cerebral blood flow (CBF) velocity and is a well-studied method to monitor cerebral autoregulation (CA). Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has emerged as a promising noninvasive method to determine CA continuously by using regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) as a surrogate for CBF. Little is known about its accuracy to determine CA in patients with intracranial lesions. The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy of rSO2-based CA monitoring with TCD methods in comatose patients with acute neurological injury. METHODS Thirty-three comatose patients were monitored at the bedside to measure CA using both TCD and NIRS. Patients were monitored daily for up to three days from coma onset. The cerebral oximetry index (COx) was calculated as the moving correlation between the slow waves of rSO2 and mean arterial pressure (MAP). The mean velocity index (Mx) was calculated as a similar coefficient between slow waves of TCD-measured CBF velocity and MAP. Optimal blood pressure was defined as the MAP with the lowest Mx and COx. Averaged Mx and COx as well as optimal MAP, based on both Mx and COx, were compared using Pearson's correlation. Bias analysis was performed between these same CA metrics. RESULTS The median duration of monitoring was 60 min (interquartile range [IQR] 48-78). There was a moderate correlation between the averaged values of COx and Mx (R = 0.40, p = 0.005). Similarly, there was a strong correlation between optimal MAP calculated for COx and Mx (R = 0.87, p < 0.001). Bland-Altman analysis showed moderate agreement with bias (±standard deviation) of -0.107 (±0.191) for COx versus Mx and good agreement with bias of 1.90 (±7.94) for optimal MAP determined by COx versus Mx. CONCLUSIONS Monitoring CA with NIRS-derived COx is correlated and had good agreement with previously validated TCD-based method. These results suggest that COx may be an acceptable substitute for Mx monitoring in patients with acute intracranial injury.

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 In cardiac surgical patients little is known about different phenotypes of delirium and how the symptoms fluctuate over time. OBJECTIVES Evaluate risk factors, incidence, fluctuations, phenotypic characteristics and impact on patients' outcomes of delirium. METHODS Prospective longitudinal study. In postoperative intensive care unit 199 patient were assessed three-times a day through an adapted versions of the Intensive Care Delirium Screening Checklist. RESULTS Delirium and subsyndromal delirium incidence were 30.7% and 31.2%, respectively. Delirium manifested mostly in the hypoactive form and showed a fluctuating trend for several days. Atrial fibrillation, benzodiazepine/opioids dosages, hearing impairment, extracorporeal circulation length, SAPS-II and mean arterial pressure were independent predictors for delirium. Delirium was a statistically significant predictor of chemical/physical restraint use and hospital length of stay. CONCLUSIONS Given the fluctuating and phenotypic characteristics, delirium screening should be a systematic/intentional activity. Multidisciplinary prevention strategies should be implemented to identify and treat the modifiable risk factors.

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
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a life-saving technique that is widely being used in centers throughout the world. However, there is a paucity of literature surrounding the mechanisms affecting cerebral physiology while on ECMO. Studies have shown alterations in cerebral blood flow characteristics and subsequently autoregulation. Furthermore, the mechanical aspects of the ECMO circuit itself may affect cerebral circulation. The nature of these physiological/pathophysiological changes can lead to profound neurological complications. This review aims at describing the changes to normal cerebral autoregulation during ECMO, illustrating the various neuromonitoring tools available to assess markers of cerebral autoregulation, and finally discussing potential neurological complications that are associated with ECMO.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerebrovascular reactivity monitoring has been used to identify the lower limit of pressure autoregulation in adult patients with brain injury. We hypothesise that impaired cerebrovascular reactivity and time spent below the lower limit of autoregulation during cardiopulmonary bypass will result in hypoperfusion injuries to the brain detectable by elevation in serum glial fibrillary acidic protein level. METHODS We designed a multicentre observational pilot study combining concurrent cerebrovascular reactivity and biomarker monitoring during cardiopulmonary bypass. All children undergoing bypass for CHD were eligible. Autoregulation was monitored with the haemoglobin volume index, a moving correlation coefficient between the mean arterial blood pressure and the near-infrared spectroscopy-based trend of cerebral blood volume. Both haemoglobin volume index and glial fibrillary acidic protein data were analysed by phases of bypass. Each patient's autoregulation curve was analysed to identify the lower limit of autoregulation and optimal arterial blood pressure. RESULTS A total of 57 children had autoregulation and biomarker data for all phases of bypass. The mean baseline haemoglobin volume index was 0.084. Haemoglobin volume index increased with lowering of pressure with 82% demonstrating a lower limit of autoregulation (41±9 mmHg), whereas 100% demonstrated optimal blood pressure (48±11 mmHg). There was a significant association between an individual's peak autoregulation and biomarker values (p=0.01). CONCLUSIONS Individual, dynamic non-invasive cerebrovascular reactivity monitoring demonstrated transient periods of impairment related to possible silent brain injury. The association between an impaired autoregulation burden and elevation in the serum brain biomarker may identify brain perfusion risk that could result in injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autoregulation monitoring has been proposed as a means to identify optimal arterial blood pressure goals during cardiopulmonary bypass, but it has been observed that cerebral blood flow is pressure passive during hypothermic bypass. When neonates cooled during cardiopulmonary bypass are managed with vasodilators and controlled hypotension, it is not clear whether hypothermia or hypotension were the cause of impaired autoregulation. AIM We sought to measure the effect of both arterial blood pressure and hypothermia on autoregulation in a cohort of infants cooled for bypass, hypothesizing a collinear relationship between hypothermia, hypotension, and dysautoregulation. METHODS Cardiopulmonary bypass was performed on 72 infants at Texas Children's Hospital during 2015 and 2016 with automated physiologic data capture, including arterial blood pressure, nasopharyngeal temperature, cerebral oximetry, and a cerebral blood volume index derived from near infrared spectroscopy. Cooling to 18°C, 24°C, and 30°C was performed on 33, 12, and 22 subjects, respectively. The hemoglobin volume index was calculated as a moving correlation coefficient between mean arterial blood pressure and the cerebral blood volume index. Positive values of the hemoglobin volume index indicate impaired autoregulation. Relationships between variables were assessed utilizing a generalized estimating equation approach. RESULTS Hypothermia was associated with hypotension, dysautoregulation, and increased cerebral oximetry. Comparing the baseline temperature of 36°C with 18°C, arterial blood pressure was 44 mm Hg (39-52) vs 25 mm Hg (21-31); the hemoglobin volume index was 0.0 (-0.02 to 0.004) vs 0.5 (0.4-0.7) and cerebral oximetry was 59% (57-61) vs 88% (80-92) (Median, 95% CI of median; P<.0001 for all three associations by linear regression with generalized estimation of equations with data from all temperatures measured). CONCLUSIONS Arterial blood pressure, temperature, and cerebral autoregulation were collinear in this cohort. The conclusion that hypothermia causes impaired autoregulation is thus confounded. The effect of temperature on autoregulation should be delineated before clinical deployment of autoregulation monitors to prevent erroneous determination of optimal arterial blood pressure. Showing the effect of temperature on autoregulation will require a normotensive hypothermic model.

Abstract
In recent years, the feasibility of near-infrared spectroscopy to continuously assess cerebral autoregulation has gained increasing interest. By plotting cerebral oxygen saturation over blood pressure, clinicians can generate an index of autoregulation: the cerebral oximetry index (COx). Successful integration of this monitoring ability in daily critical care may allow clinicians to tailor blood pressure management to the individual patient's need and might prove to be a major step forward in terms of patient outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We sought to define the lower and upper limits of cerebral blood flow autoregulation and the optimal blood pressure during cardiopulmonary bypass. We further sought to identify variables predictive of these autoregulation end points. METHODS Cerebral autoregulation was monitored continuously with transcranial Doppler in 614 patients during cardiopulmonary bypass enrolled in 3 investigations. A moving Pearson's correlation coefficient was calculated between cerebral blood flow velocity and mean arterial pressure to generate the variable mean velocity index. Optimal mean arterial pressure was defined as the mean arterial pressure with the lowest mean velocity index indicating the best autoregulation. The lower and upper limits of cerebral blood flow autoregulation were defined as the mean arterial pressure at which mean velocity index was increasingly pressure passive (ie, mean velocity index ≥0.4) with declining or increasing blood pressure, respectively. RESULTS The mean (± standard deviation) lower and upper limits of cerebral blood flow autoregulation, and optimal mean arterial pressure were 65 ± 12 mm Hg, 84 ± 11 mm Hg, and 78 ± 11 mm Hg, respectively, after adjusting for study enrollment. In 17% of patients, though, the lower limit of cerebral autoregulation was above this optimal mean arterial pressure, whereas in 29% of patients the upper limit of autoregulation was below the population optimal mean arterial pressure. Variables associated with optimal mean arterial pressure based on multivariate regression analysis were nonwhite race (increased 2.7 mm Hg; P = .034), diuretics use (decreased 1.9 mm Hg; P = .049), prior carotid endarterectomy (decreased 5.5 mm Hg; P = .019), and duration of cardiopulmonary bypass (decreased 1.28 per 60 minutes of cardiopulmonary bypass). The product of the duration and magnitude that mean arterial pressure during cardiopulmonary bypass was below the lower limit of cerebral autoregulation was associated with the risk for stroke (P = .02). CONCLUSIONS Real-time monitoring of autoregulation may improve individualizing mean arterial pressure during cardiopulmonary bypass and improving patient outcomes.

Abstract
Abstract
This comprehensive review summarizes the evidence regarding use of cerebral autoregulation-directed therapy at the bedside and provides an evaluation of its impact on optimizing cerebral perfusion and associated functional outcomes. Multiple studies in adults and several in children have shown the feasibility of individualizing mean arterial blood pressure and cerebral perfusion pressure goals by using cerebral autoregulation monitoring to calculate optimal levels. Nine of these studies examined the association between cerebral perfusion pressure or mean arterial blood pressure being above or below their optimal levels and functional outcomes. Six of these nine studies (66%) showed that patients for whom median cerebral perfusion pressure or mean arterial blood pressure differed significantly from the optimum, defined by cerebral autoregulation monitoring, were more likely to have an unfavorable outcome. The evidence indicates that monitoring of continuous cerebral autoregulation at the bedside is feasible and has the potential to be used to direct blood pressure management in acutely ill patients.

Abstract
RATIONALE Delirium is common following lung transplant and is associated with poorer clinical outcomes. The extent to which intraoperative hemodynamic alterations may contribute to postoperative delirium among lung transplant recipients has not been examined. OBJECTIVES To examine the impact of intraoperative hemodynamic changes on neurobehavioral outcomes among lung transplant recipients. METHODS Intraoperative hemodynamic function during lung transplant was assessed in a consecutive series of patients between March and November 2013. Intraoperative cerebral perfusion pressure was assessed every minute in all patients. Following lung transplant, patients were monitored for the presence and severity of delirium using the Confusion Assessment Method and the Delirium Rating Scale until hospital discharge. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Sixty-three patients received lung transplants, of whom 23 (37%) subsequently developed delirium. Lower cerebral perfusion pressure was associated with increased risk of delirium (odds ratio [OR], 2.08 per 10-mm Hg decrease; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02-4.24; P = 0.043), longer duration of delirium (OR, 1.7 d longer per 10-mm Hg decrease; 95% CI, 1.1-2.7; P = 0.022), and greater delirium severity (b = -0.81; 95% CI, -1.47 to -0.15; P = 0.017). CONCLUSIONS Poorer cerebral perfusion pressure during lung transplant is associated with greater risk for delirium following transplant, as well as greater duration and severity of delirium, independent of demographic and medical predictors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Protecting the brain during cardiac surgery is a major challenge. We evaluated associations between nadir oxygen delivery (DO2) during paediatric cardiac surgery and a biomarker of brain injury, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). METHODS Blood samples were obtained during a prospective, single-centre observational study of children undergoing congenital heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) (2010-2011). Remnant blood samples, collected serially prior to cannulation for bypass and until incision closure, were analysed for GFAP levels. Perfusion records were reviewed to calculate nadir DO2. Linear regression analysis was used to assess the association between nadir DO2 and GFAP levels. RESULTS A total of 116 consecutive children were included, with the median age of 0.75 years (interquartile range: 0.42-8.00) and the median weight of 8.3 kg (5.8-20.0). Single-ventricle anatomy was present in 19 patients (16.4%). Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) was used in 14 patients (12.1%). On univariable analysis, nadir DO2 was significantly associated with GFAP values measured during rewarming on CPB (P = 0.005) and after CPB decannulation (P = 0.02). On multivariable analysis controlling for CPB time, DHCA and procedure risk category, a significant negative relationship remained between nadir DO2 and post-CPB GFAP (P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Lower nadir DO2 is associated with increased GFAP levels, suggesting that diminished DO2 during paediatric heart surgery may be contributing to neurological injury. The DO2-GFAP relationship may provide a useful measure for the implementation of neuroprotective strategies in paediatric heart surgery, including goal-directed perfusion.

Perioperative optimal blood pressure as determined by ultrasound tagged near infrared spectroscopy and its association with postoperative acute kidney injury in cardiac surgery patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Perioperative blood pressure management by targeting individualized optimal blood pressure, determined by cerebral blood flow autoregulation monitoring, may ensure sufficient renal perfusion. The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in the optimal blood pressure for individual patients, determined during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and during early postoperative period in intensive care unit (ICU). A secondary aim was to examine if excursions below optimal blood pressure in the ICU are associated with risk of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI). METHODS One hundred and ten patients undergoing cardiac surgery had cerebral blood flow monitored with a novel technology using ultrasound tagged near infrared spectroscopy (UT-NIRS) during CPB and in the first 3 h after surgery in the ICU. The correlation flow index (CFx) was calculated as a moving, linear correlation coefficient between cerebral flow index measured using UT-NIRS and mean arterial pressure (MAP). Optimal blood pressure was defined as the MAP with the lowest CFx. Changes in optimal blood pressure in the perioperative period were observed and the association of blood pressure excursions (magnitude and duration) below the optimal blood pressure [area under the curve (AUC) < OptMAP mmHgxh] with incidence of CSA-AKI (defined using Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes criteria) was examined. RESULTS Optimal blood pressure during early ICU stay and CPB was correlated (r = 0.46, P < 0.0001), but was significantly higher in the ICU compared with during CPB (75 ± 8.7 vs 71 ± 10.3 mmHg, P = 0.0002). Thirty patients (27.3%) developed CSA-AKI within 48 h after the surgery. AUC < OptMAP was associated with CSA-AKI during CPB [median, 13.27 mmHgxh, interquartile range (IQR), 4.63-20.14 vs median, 6.05 mmHgxh, IQR 3.03-12.40, P = 0.008], and in the ICU (13.72 mmHgxh, IQR 5.09-25.54 vs 5.65 mmHgxh, IQR 1.71-13.07, P = 0.022). CONCLUSIONS Optimal blood pressure during CPB and in the ICU was correlated. Excursions below optimal blood pressure (AUC < OptMAP mmHgXh) during perioperative period are associated with CSA-AKI. Individualized blood pressure management based on cerebral autoregulation monitoring during the perioperative period may help improve CSA-AKI-related outcomes.

Blood Pressure Deviations From Optimal Mean Arterial Pressure During Cardiac Surgery Measured With a Novel Monitor of Cerebral Blood Flow and Risk for Perioperative Delirium: A Pilot Study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate whether excursions of blood pressure from the optimal mean arterial pressure during and after cardiac surgery are associated with postoperative delirium identified using a structured examination. DESIGN Prospective, observational study. SETTING University hospital. PARTICIPANTS The study included 110 patients undergoing cardiac surgery. INTERVENTIONS Patients were monitored using ultrasound-tagged near-infrared spectroscopy to assess optimal mean arterial pressure by cerebral blood flow autoregulation monitoring during cardiopulmonary bypass and the first 3 hours in the intensive care unit. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The patients were tested preoperatively and on postoperative days 1 to 3 with the Confusion Assessment Method or Confusion Assessment Method for the Intensive Care Unit, the Delirium Rating Scale-Revised-98, and the Mini Mental State Examination. Summative presence of delirium on postoperative days 1 through 3, as defined by the consensus panel following Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-IV-TR criteria, was the primary outcome. Delirium occurred in 47 (42.7%) patients. There were no differences in blood pressure excursions above and below optimal mean arterial pressure between patients with and without summative presence of delirium. Secondary analysis showed blood pressure excursions above the optimal mean arterial pressure to be higher in patients with delirium (mean±SD, 33.2±26.51 mmHgxh v 23.4±16.13 mmHgxh; p = 0.031) and positively correlated with the Delirium Rating Scale score on postoperative day 2 (r = 0.27, p = 0.011). CONCLUSIONS Summative presence of delirium was not associated with perioperative blood pressure excursions; but on secondary exploratory analysis, excursions above the optimal mean arterial pressure were associated with the incidence and severity of delirium on postoperative day 2.

Rewarming Rate During Cardiopulmonary Bypass Is Associated With Release of Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein. Ann Thorac Surg 2015; 100:1353-8. [PMID: 26163357 DOI: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2015.04.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2015] [Revised: 03/27/2015] [Accepted: 04/01/2015] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rewarming from hypothermia during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) may compromise cerebral oxygen balance, potentially resulting in cerebral ischemia. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether CPB rewarming rate is associated with cerebral ischemia assessed by the release of the brain injury biomarker glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). METHODS Blood samples were collected from 152 patients after anesthesia induction and after CPB for the measurement of plasma GFAP levels. Nasal temperatures were recorded every 15 min. A multivariate estimation model for postoperative plasma GFAP level was determined that included the baseline GFAP levels, rewarming rate, CPB duration, and patient age. RESULTS The mean rewarming rate during CPB was 0.21° ± 0.11°C/min; the maximal temperature was 36.5° ± 1.0°C (range, 33.1°C to 38.0°C). Plasma GFAP levels increased after compared with before CPB (median, 0.022 ng/mL versus 0.035 ng/mL; p < 0.001). Rewarming rate (p = 0.001), but not maximal temperature (p = 0.77), was associated with higher plasma GFAP levels after CPB. In the adjusted estimation model, rewarming rate was positively associated with postoperative plasma log GFAP levels (coefficient, 0.261; 95% confidence intervals, 0.132 to 0.390; p < 0.001). Six patients (3.9%) experienced a postoperative stroke. Rewarming rate was higher (0.3° ± 0.09°C/min versus 0.2° ± 0.11°C/min; p = 0.049) in the patients with stroke compared with those without a stroke. CONCLUSIONS Rewarming rate during CPB was correlated with evidence of brain cellular injury documented with plasma GFAP levels. Modifying current practices of patient rewarming might provide a strategy to reduce the frequency of neurologic complications after cardiac surgery.
