Use of combined cerebral and somatic renal near infrared spectroscopy during noncardiac surgery in children: a proposed algorithm. Paediatr Anaesth 2022; 32:1278-1284. [PMID: 36352522 DOI: 10.1111/pan.14552] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2022] [Revised: 08/27/2022] [Accepted: 08/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
Cerebral near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) monitoring has been extensively applied in neonatology and in cardiac surgery, becoming a standard in many pediatric cardiac centers. However, compensatory physiological mechanisms favor cerebral perfusion to the detriment of peripheral tissue oxygenation. Therefore, simultaneous measurement of cerebral and somatic oxygen saturation has been advocated to ease the differential diagnosis between central and peripheral sources of hypoperfusion, which may go undetected by standard monitoring and not mirrored by cerebral NIRS alone. A clinical algorithm already exists in cardiac surgery, aimed to correct intraoperative cerebral oxygen desaturations. A similar algorithm still lacks in noncardiac pediatric surgery. The goal of this paper is to propose a clinical algorithm for the combined use of cerebral and somatic NIRS monitoring during anesthesia in the pediatric population undergoing noncardiac surgery. A panel of experienced pediatric anesthetists developed the algorithm that is based on the clinical experience and intraoperative observations. It aims to lessen the current variability in interpreting NIRS measurement. Multisite NIRS monitoring was achieved applying one pediatric sensor to the forehead for cerebral tissue perfusion reading and a second one to the decumbent lumbar region for recording somatic renal tissue perfusion. The algorithm describes a sequence of acts aimed to identify the putative cause of intraoperative organ tissue desaturation and suggests clinical interventions expected to restore adequate tissue perfusion. It is composed of two arms: the main arm includes patients with an observed decrease in cerebral perfusion (CrO2), the second one includes those with a stable CrSO2 with declining RrSO2. Described also are five clinical cases of infants and neonates in whom pathological alterations of organ perfusion were detected using intraoperative multisite NIRS monitoring, portrayed in the accompanying figures (Annex).

Abstract
Neurocognitive dysfunction after cardiac surgery can present with diverse clinical phenotypes, which include postoperative delirium, postoperative cognitive dysfunction, and stroke, and it presents a significant healthcare burden for both patients and providers. Neurologic monitoring during cardiac surgery includes several modalities assessing cerebral perfusion and oxygenation (near-infrared spectroscopy, transcranial Doppler and jugular venous bulb saturation monitoring) and those that measure cerebral function (processed and unprocessed electroencephalogram), reflecting an absence of a single, definitive neuromonitor. This narrative review briefly describes the technologic basis of these neuromonitoring modalities, before exploring their use in clinical practice, both as tools to predict neurocognitive dysfunction, and with a bundle of interventions designed to optimize cerebral oxygen supply, with the aim of reducing postoperative delirium and cognitive dysfunction following cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is widely used as a non-invasive method to monitor the hemodynamics of biological tissue. A common approach of NIRS relies on continuous wave (CW) methodology, i.e. utilizing intensity-only measurements, and, in general, assumes homogeneity in the optical properties of the biological tissue. However, in monitoring cerebral hemodynamics within humans, this assumption is not valid due to complex layered structure of the head. The NIRS signal that contains information about cerebral blood hemoglobin levels is also contaminated with extra-cerebral tissue hemodynamics, and any recovery method based on such a priori homogenous approximation would lead to erroneous results. In this work, utilization of hyper-spectral intensity only measurements (i.e., CW) at multiple distances are presented and are shown to recover two-layered tissue properties along with the thickness of top layer, using an analytical solution for a two-layered semi-infinite geometry. It is demonstrated that the recovery of tissue oxygenation index (TOI) of both layers can be achieved with an error of 4.4%, with the recovered tissue thickness of 4% error. When the data is measured on a complex tissue such as the human head, it is shown that the semi-infinite recovery model can lead to uncertain results, whereas, when using an appropriate model accounting for the tissue-boundary structure, the tissue oxygenation levels are recovered with an error of 4.2%, and the extra-cerebral tissue thickness with an error of 11.8%. The algorithm is finally used together with human subject data, demonstrating robustness in application and repeatability in the recovered parameters that adhere well to expected published parameters.

Abstract
Multimodal monitoring has become particularly common in the study of human brain function. In this context, combined, synchronous measurements of functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and electroencephalography (EEG) are getting increased interest. Because of the absence of electro-optical interference, it is quite simple to integrate these two noninvasive recording procedures of brain activity. fNIRS and EEG are both scalp-located procedures. fNIRS estimates brain hemodynamic fluctuations relying on spectroscopic measurements, whereas EEG captures the macroscopic temporal dynamics of brain electrical activity through passive voltages evaluations. The "orthogonal" neurophysiological information provided by the two technologies and the increasing interest in the neurovascular coupling phenomenon further encourage their integration. This review provides, together with an introduction regarding the principles and future directions of the two technologies, an evaluation of major clinical and nonclinical applications of this flexible, low-cost combination of neuroimaging modalities. fNIRS-EEG systems exploit the ability of the two technologies to be conducted in an environment or experimental setting and/or on subjects that are generally not suited for other neuroimaging modalities, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography, and magnetoencephalography. fNIRS-EEG brain monitoring settles itself as a useful multimodal tool for brain electrical and hemodynamic activity investigation.

Abstract
The clinical characteristics of emergence delirium (ED) associated with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among military veterans encompass transient agitation, restlessness, disorientation, and violent verbal and physical behaviors due to re-experiencing of PTSD-related incidents. Two cases of ED after general anesthesia associated with PTSD are presented. Different anesthesia methods were applied for the two cases. A traditional medical approach appeared not to prevent the incidence of ED. In the second case, dexmedetomidine infusion along with verbal coaching was effective in preventing ED for a veteran known to have “wild wake-ups” with prior anesthetics. Further clinical studies in effectively utilizing dexmedetomidine in this population with PTSD at high risk for ED are warranted.

Abstract
Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a highly complex process. We developed a system to capture and study detailed information during cardiac surgery that serves as a framework for understanding variation that occurs during CPB. The system allows the surgical team to link unwanted variation (ie, hypotension) and unwanted events (ie, the production of microemboli) to the processes of care. A more thorough understanding of embolic activity and hemodynamic aberrations, precursors to both stroke and subtle neurologic injury, that occur during CPB, will allow the surgical team to identify high leverage, modifiable aspects of care and abate these precursors to patient injury. Multimodality simultaneous monitoring and recording of physiologic parameters, emboli in the CPB circuit and in the middle cerebral arteries, and cerebral NIRS during surgery was carried out in patients undergoing open heart surgery with CPB. A system was designed that captures physiologic data from the patient monitors and the heart-lung machine at 20-second intervals and time synchronizes all measures with a video recording of the surgical procedure. Emboli counts count in the CPB circuit and right and left middle cerebral arteries were continuously recorded. Video recordings depicting various surgical and perfusion techniques with associated embolic activity were provided to the surgical team. Wide variation in embolic counts, cerebral blood flow velocity, and physiologic parameters were observed. Periods of embolic activity and cerebral desaturation could be related to surgical and CPB processes of care. We have identified increased emboli counts in the CPB circuit and in the middle cerebral arteries related to the method of venous drainage, manipulation of the aorta, and anastomotic techniques. se of this model provides the surgical team detailed information about these precursors to neurologic injury. This system provides a systematic approach to the understanding and redesigning of CPB.

Abstract
The long-term neurodevelopmental outcome has been a great concern for cardiac surgeons although it is still unclear. There are some risks regarding the neurological and neuropsychological deficits before, during and after cardiovascular surgery. Current status of brain protection during congenital heart surgery could be reported. The incidence of neurologic outcome and the appropriate CPB strategy for brain protection are stated, and the latest data of neurodevelopmental outcome after pediatric cardiac surgery are clarified.

Abstract
Surgical correction of congenital cardiac malformations mostly implies the use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). However, a possible negative impact of CPB on cerebral structures like the hippocampus cannot be neglected. Therefore, we investigated the effect of CPB on hippocampus CA1 and CA3 regions without or with the addition of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) or minocycline. We studied 42 piglets and divided them into six experimental groups: control without or with EGCG or minocycline, CPB without or with EGCG or minocycline. The piglets underwent 90 minutes CPB and subsequently, a 120-minute recovery and reperfusion phase. Thereafter, histology of the hippocampus was performed and the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content was measured. Histologic evaluation revealed that CPB produced a significant peri-cellular edema in both CA regions. Moreover, we found an increased number of cells stained with markers for hypoxia, apoptosis and nitrosative stress. Most of these alterations were significantly reduced to or near to control levels by application of EGCG or minocycline. ATP content was significantly reduced within the hippocampus after CPB. This reduction could not be antagonized by EGCG or minocycline. In conclusion, CPB had a significant negative impact on the integrity of hippocampal neural cells. This cellular damage could be significantly attenuated by addition of EGCG or minocycline.

Abstract
The use of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been increasingly adopted in cardiac surgery to measure regional cerebral oxygen saturation. This method takes advantage of the fact that light in the near-infrared spectrum penetrates tissue, including bone and muscle. Sensors are placed at fixed distances from a light emitter, and algorithms subtract superficial light absorption from deep absorption to provide an index of tissue oxygenation. Although the popularity of NIRS monitoring is growing, definitive data that prove outcome benefits with its use remain sparse. Therefore, widespread, routine use of NIRS as a standard-of-care monitor cannot be recommended at present. Recent investigations have focused on the use of NIRS in subgroups that may benefit from NIRS monitoring, such as pediatric patients. Furthermore, a novel application of processed NIRS information for monitoring cerebral autoregulation and tissue oxygenation (e.g., kidneys and the gut) is promising.

Abstract
We re-determined the near infrared (NIR) spectral signatures (650–980 nm) of the different cytochrome c oxidase redox centres, in the process separating them into their component species. We confirm that the primary contributor to the oxidase NIR spectrum between 700 and 980 nm is cupric CuA, which in the beef heart enzyme has a maximum at 835 nm. The 655 nm band characterises the fully oxidised haem a3/CuB binuclear centre; it is bleached either when one or more electrons are added to the binuclear centre or when the latter is modified by ligands. The resulting ‘perturbed’ binuclear centre is also characterised by a previously unreported broad 715–920 nm band. The NIR spectra of certain stable liganded species (formate and CO), and the unstable oxygen reaction compounds P and F, are similar, suggesting that the latter may resemble the stable species electronically. Oxidoreduction of haem a makes no contribution either to the 835 nm maximum or the 715 nm band. Our results confirm the ability of NIRS to monitor the CuA centre of cytochrome oxidase activity in vivo, although noting some difficulties in precise quantitative interpretations in the presence of perturbations of the haem a3/CuB binuclear centre. The NIR spectrum of cytochrome oxidase was deconvoluted into its component species. The dominant feature between 700 and 980 nm was confirmed as the CuA chromophore. There was no significant contribution from the haem a iron centre. A new feature between 715 and 920 nm was assigned to the haem a3/CuB binuclear centre. Changes in concentrations of oxygen intermediates P and F may be measurable in vivo.

Abstract
The safety of anesthesia has improved greatly in the past three decades. Standard perioperative monitoring, including pulse oximetry, has practically eliminated unrecognized arterial hypoxia as a cause for perioperative injury. However, most anesthesia-related cardiac arrests in children are now cardiovascular in origin, and standard monitoring is unable to detect many circulatory abnormalities. Near-infrared spectroscopy provides noninvasive continuous access to the venous side of regional circulations that can approximate organ-specific and global measures to facilitate the detection of circulatory abnormalities and drive goal-directed interventions to reduce end-organ ischemic injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Near-infrared spectroscopy is used during cardiac surgery to monitor the adequacy of cerebral perfusion. In this systematic review, we evaluated available data for adult patients to determine (1) whether decrements in cerebral oximetry during cardiac surgery are associated with stroke, postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD), or delirium; and (2) whether interventions aimed at correcting cerebral oximetry decrements improve neurologic outcomes. METHODS We searched PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase databases from inception until January 31, 2012, without restriction on languages. Each article was examined for additional references. A publication was excluded if it did not include original data (e.g., review, commentary) or if it was not published as a full-length article in a peer-reviewed journal (e.g., abstract only). The identified abstracts were screened first, and full texts of eligible articles were reviewed independently by 2 investigators. For eligible publications, we recorded the number of subjects, type of surgery, and criteria for diagnosis of neurologic end points. RESULTS We identified 13 case reports, 27 observational studies, and 2 prospectively randomized intervention trials that met our inclusion criteria. Case reports and 2 observational studies contained anecdotal evidence suggesting that regional cerebral O(2) saturation (rSco(2)) monitoring could be used to identify cardiopulmonary bypass cannula malposition. Six of 9 observational studies reported an association between acute rSco(2) desaturation and POCD based on the Mini-Mental State Examination (n = 3 studies) or more detailed cognitive testing (n = 6 studies). Two retrospective studies reported a relationship between rSco(2) desaturation and stroke or type I and II neurologic injury after surgery. The observational studies had many limitations, including small sample size, assessments only during the immediate postoperative period, and failure to perform risk adjustments. Two randomized studies evaluated the efficacy of interventions for treating rSco(2) desaturation during surgery, but adherence to the protocol was poor in one. In the other study, interventions for rSco(2) desaturation were associated with less major organ injury and shorter intensive care unit hospitalization compared with nonintervention. CONCLUSIONS Reductions in rSco(2) during cardiac surgery may identify cardiopulmonary bypass cannula malposition, particularly during aortic surgery. Only low-level evidence links low rSco(2) during cardiac surgery to postoperative neurologic complications, and data are insufficient to conclude that interventions to improve rSco(2) desaturation prevent stroke or POCD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) offers continuous non-invasive monitoring of regional tissue oxygenation. We evaluated NIRS monitoring during the postoperative course after superior cavopulmonary anastomosis in patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome and anatomically related malformations. METHODS Cerebral (cSO(2)) and somatic (sSO(2)) tissue oxygenations were recorded for 48 h and compared with routine measures of intensive care monitoring. Changes in parameters in the case of postoperative complications were evaluated. RESULTS Data were obtained from 32 patients. Median age at operation was 2.9 (1.5-10.0) months and weight was 5.3 ± 1.0 kg. Postoperative complications occurred in 7 patients (pulmonary artery thrombus n = 4, pneumothorax n = 1, cardiopulmonary resuscitation n = 1 and low-cardiac output n = 1). cSO(2) was 44 ± 14% at the end of the operation and reached its minimum of 40 ± 11% 2 h later (P = 0.018). Overall, cSO(2) was depressed early after surgery and increased from a mean of 42 ± 11% during the first 4 postoperative hours to 57 ± 8% in the last 4 h of the study period (P < 0.001). The sSO(2) decreased from 77 ± 11% during the early postoperative course to 68 ± 9% within the later course (P < 0.001). The cSO(2) correlated with the arterial partial pressure of oxygen (pO(2), r = 0.364, P < 0.001), with the arterial oxygen saturation (SaO(2), r = 0.547, P < 0.001) and with the central venous oxygen saturation providing the strongest correlation (SvO(2), r = 0.686, P < 0.001). Analysis of agreement between cSO(2) and SvO(2) measurements revealed a mean bias of 0.97 with limits of agreement between 19.8 and -17.9%. Inclusion of both cSO(2) and sSO(2) into a linear regression model slightly improved the prediction of SvO(2) from NIRS values (r = 0.706, P < 0.001). The mean values of cSO(2), sSO(2), SaO(2) and SvO(2) during the early postoperative period were lower in patients with complications (cSO(2): 45 ± 9 vs 29 ± 5%, P < 0.001; sSO(2): 80 ± 11 vs 70 ± 6%, P = 0.004; SaO(2): 76 ± 8 vs 66 ± 6%, P = 0.004; SvO(2): 48 ± 14 vs 32 ± 6%, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS NIRS technology allows inferring the global oxygenation from continuous non-invasive measurements of regional tissue oxygenation. The cSO(2) is lowered in the early postoperative course. Lower cSO(2) values in the early postoperative course may be predictive of postoperative complications.

Abstract
Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) provides assessment of the integrative responses involving the pulmonary, cardiovascular, and skeletal muscle systems. Application of exercise testing remains limited to children who are able to understand and cooperate with the exercise protocol. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) provides a noninvasive, continuous method to monitor regional tissue oxygenation (rSO2). Our specific aim was to predict anaerobic threshold (AT) during CPET noninvasively using two-site NIRS monitoring. Achievement of a practical noninvasive technology for estimating AT will increase the compatibility of CPET. Patients without structural or acquired heart disease were eligible for inclusion if they were ordered to undergo CPET by a cardiologist. Data from 51 subjects was analyzed. The ventilatory anaerobic threshold (VAT) was computed on [Formula: see text] and respiratory quotient post hoc using the standard V-slope method. The inflection points of the regional rSO2 time-series were identified as the noninvasive regional NIRS AT for each of the two monitored regions (cerebral and kidney). AT calculation made using an average of kidney and brain NIRS matched the calculation made by VAT for the same patient. Two-site NIRS monitoring of visceral organs is a predictor of AT.

Abstract
Exercise creates a physiologic burden with recovery from such effort crucial to adaptation. Excess postexercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) refers to the body's increased metabolic need after work. This investigation was designed to determine the role of near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in the description of exercise recovery in healthy controls (NL) and children with congenital heart disease (CHD). Subjects were recruited with exercise testing performed to exhaustion. Exercise time (EXT), heart rate (HR), and oxygen consumption (VO(2)) were measured. Four-site NIRS (brain, kidney, deltoid, and vastus lateralis) were measured during exercise and into recovery to establish trends. Fifty individuals were recruited for each group (NL = 26 boys and 24 girls; CHD = 33 boys and 17 girls). Significant differences existed between EXT, VO(2), and peak HR (P < 0.01). NIRS values were examined at four distinct intervals: rest, peak work, and 2 and 5 min after exercise. Significant cerebral hyperemia was seen in children with CHD post exercise when compared to normal individuals in whom redistribution patterns were directed to somatic muscles. These identified trends support an immediate compensation of organ systems to re-establish homeostasis in peripheral beds through enhanced perfusion. Noninvasive NIRS monitoring helps delineate patterns of redistribution associated with EPOC in healthy adolescents and children with CHD.

Abstract
The acute onset of a neurological deficit is the key clinical feature of stroke. In most cases, however, pathophysiological changes in the cerebral vasculature precede the event, often by many years. Persisting neurological deficits may also require long-term rehabilitation. Hence, stroke may be considered a chronic disease, and diagnostic and therapeutic efforts must include identification of specific risk factors, and the monitoring of and interventions in the acute and subacute stages, and should aim at a pathophysiologically based approach to optimize the rehabilitative effort. Non-invasive optical techniques have been experimentally used in all three stages of the disease and may complement the established diagnostic and monitoring tools. Here, we provide an overview of studies using the methodology in the context of stroke, and we sketch perspectives of how they may be integrated into the assessment of the highly dynamic pathophysiological processes during the acute and subacute stages of the disease and also during rehabilitation and (secondary) prevention of stroke.

Abstract
Introduction: Inadequate cerebral oxygen balance during cardiopulmonary bypass may cause neuropsychological dysfunction. Milrinone, a phosphodiesterase III inhibitor, augments cerebral blood flow by direct vasodilatation. We conducted a prospective, randomized study in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass to clarify the clinical efficacy of milrinone in the imbalance of cerebral oxygen supply and demand during the rewarming period of cardiopulmonary bypass. Methods: This is a prospective, randomized and placebo-controlled study. After anesthesia, a 5.5 F fiberoptic oximeter catheter was inserted into the right jugular bulb retrogradely for monitoring the jugular venous oxyhemoglobin saturation (SjO2). Patients were randomly assigned to two groups, one receiving a continuous infusion of milrinone, 0.5 µg/kg/min during hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass, and the other receiving saline as control. Results: Milrinone significantly prevented the reduction of the jugular venous oxyhemoglobin saturation at 10 minutes from the start of rewarming compared with the control group, but did not do so from 10 to 20 minutes after rewarming. Conclusion: Milrinone suppresses the reduction of SjO2 and improves the balance of cerebral oxygen supply and demand during the early rewarming period of hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate cognitive functions in patients undergoing extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass surgery for cerebral ischemia. POPULATION AND METHODS From August 2003 to January 2009, 276 patients with occluded internal carotid arteries (ICA) were screened. Forty of these met the criteria for a low-flow EC-IC bypass. These patients were identified based on evidence of exhausted vasomotor reactivity (VMR) using the Doppler CO(2) test and CT perfusion. These patients were invited to have a complete battery of neuropsychological tests preoperatively and 12 months after surgery. Complete neurocognitive testing was finished in 20 patients. RESULTS This group of 20 patients showed preoperative cognitive impairment ranging from mild to medium-severe. There were no cases of stroke ipsilateral to the operated side during the follow-up period. VMR improvement was seen in all patients within 6 months of surgery. A comparison using a paired t-test demonstrated significant improvement 12 months after surgery in the following neuropsychological tests: WAIS-R (p = 0.01), Number Collection Test (p = 0.02), Trail Making Test (p = 0.03), and Benton Visual Retention Test (p = 0.05). Repeat analysis of variance (ANOVA) suggested the following predictors associated with cognitive improvement:the presence of ophthalmic collateral flow (p = 0.04), preoperative amaurosis fugax (p = 0.02), and external watershed infarction detected by MRI (p = 0.04). CONCLUSION Patients with occlusion of the ICA and exhausted VMR have cognitive impairment prior to EC-IC bypass surgery. Twelve months after surgery, there is significant improvement in various areas of cognition.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Significant depression in cerebral oxygen saturation has been observed in patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) undergoing Norwood operations. We monitored cerebral oxygen saturation with near-infrared spectroscopy before and after this procedure. Patients with transposition of great arteries (TGA) before and after arterial switch operation were also studied to elucidate whether post-cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) changes in cerebral oxygen saturation are related to CPB or hemodynamic alterations inherent in single-ventricle physiology. METHODS We monitored 33 patients with HLHS and 20 with TGA 24 hours before and 48 hours after CPB. In addition to cerebral oxygen saturation, routine measurements of oxygen transport and delivery were performed. RESULTS Preoperatively, cerebral oxygen saturation was higher in patients with HLHS than with TGA (61% ± 7% vs 56% ± 8%, P = .04). After CPB, cerebral oxygen saturation was markedly depressed in both groups but increased toward end of monitoring (HLHS vs TGA minimal value 42% ± 12% vs 54% ± 11%, P < .001, value 48 hours after CPB 62% ± 7% vs 80% ± 8%, P < .0001). Routine measures of oxygen delivery, such as arterial and central venous oxygen saturations, were similar at minimal cerebral oxygen saturation and 48 hours after CPB. CONCLUSIONS Depression of cerebral oxygen saturation is prevalent among neonates with congenital heart disease regardless of whether univentricular or biventricular circulation is present, suggesting that cerebral desaturation is mainly induced by CPB's effect on cerebral blood flow. Routine measures of oxygen delivery fail to indicate cerebral desaturation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Non-invasive cerebral monitoring with the INVOS cerebral oximeter is an accepted good indicator of cerebral metabolism. In recent years, it has been used in the monitoring of patients who underwent cardiac surgery. Herein, we describe the INVOS trend during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in a cohort of patients operated in our institution for congenital heart disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between December 2009 and March 2010, 40 patients (mean age 8.4 years; range 11 days-60 years) underwent cardiac surgical procedures using CPB. Values of INVOS cerebral parameter, pH, oxygen saturation, and CO(2) level were collected pre CPB, during cooling, re-warming and weaning, and post CPB. INVOS parameters were evaluated according to CPB priming, age and preoperative oxygen saturation. RESULTS Patients were divided according to CPB priming (haematic vs clear), age (≤1 vs >1 year of age) and oxygen saturation (≤92% vs >92%). During the operations, the trend demonstrated a reduction in INVOS value at the institution of CPB and a further reduction during the cooling phase in all groups.This has been correlated to the loss of pulsatile flow. However, the value recovered during re-warming, weaning and CPB discontinuation. Cyanotic patients presented a lower cerebral oximetry compared to acyanotic patients during the whole CPB period. Between age and priming groups, we noticed a statistical difference in cerebral oximetry, with a lower value in the younger patients and in the haematic priming group. This might be interrelated because all patients younger than 1 year old always received haematic CPB priming. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated that cerebral oximetry decreases with the loss of pulsatile flow regardless of the mean arterial pressure and, furthermore, is not directly related to the haematocrit value in patients with reduced pulmonary blood flow.

Abstract
Neuropsychological dysfunction with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) may be facilitated by inadequate cerebral oxygen balance during CPB. Olprinone, a phosphodiesterase III inhibitor, augments cerebral blood flow by a direct vasodilator effect on cerebral arteries. We conducted the present randomized study in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB to investigate whether olprinone improved the balance of cerebral oxygen supply and demand during the rewarming period of CPB. After anesthesia, a 5.5 F fiberoptic oximeter catheter was inserted into the right jugular bulb retrogradely for monitoring the jugular venous oxyhemoglobin saturation (SjO2), and a probe of transcranial near-infrared spectroscopy was placed over the forehead for monitoring the bilateral regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2). Patients were randomly assigned to 3 groups, and olprinone was administered at 0, 0.2, or 0.4 μg·kg(-1)·min(-1) after establishment of hypothermic CPB. Olprinone significantly prevented the reduction of the SjO2 at 5 and 10 minutes after the start of rewarming, although it did not alter rSO2. Furthermore, there was a minor reduction of the bilateral rSO2 at low doses of olprinone (0.2 μg·kg(-1)·min(-1)). We conclude that olprinone prevents the decrease of the SjO2 at the rewarming period and improves the balance of cerebral oxygen supply and demand during the rewarming period of CPB. In addition, a future extended study may be required to elucidate the effect of low dose of olprinone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Delirium after cardiac surgery is a serious complication that results in higher morbidity and mortality rates, and prolongs hospitalisation. However, the knowledge base regarding the issue of postoperative delirium is still limited. Therefore, in the current study, we evaluated the incidence and independent perioperative risk factors of delirium after cardiac surgery. METHODS The IPDACS Study recruited 563 consecutive patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. The subjects were preoperatively examined by psychiatrists using the Mini-Mental State Examination and the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview to assess psychiatric comorbidity. Additionally, other variables connected to the patients' medical condition and surgical and anaesthetic procedures were evaluated. A diagnosis of delirium following surgical intervention was based on Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition (DSM-IV) criteria. RESULTS The incidence of postoperative delirium according to DSM-IV criteria was 16.3% (95% confidence interval: 13.5-19.6). Multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis revealed that advanced age, preoperative cognitive impairment, an ongoing episode of major depression, anaemia, atrial fibrillation, prolonged intubation and postoperative hypoxia were independently associated with delirium after cardiac surgery. CONCLUSION According to the current analysis, the aforementioned conditions independently predispose to delirium following cardiac surgery. Since some of these factors can be successfully treated and eliminated preoperatively and postoperatively, this study should be helpful in reducing the risk of delirium and in improving the medical care of patients undergoing cardiac surgery (Clinical Trials Identifier: NCT00784576).

Abstract
Syncope is transient loss of consciousness. Neurocardiogenic syncope (NCS) is the most common cause of syncope. Head-up tilt-table test (HUTT) has been used to demonstrate physiologic events during graded orthostatic challenge in individuals with significant handicap from NCS. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) provides a noninvasive, continuous method to monitor trends of regional tissue oxygenation (rSO2). We hypothesize that multisite NIRS monitoring will show differential desaturation patterns in the brain and renal vascular beds during postural stresses. All patients age 7-21 years old scheduled to undergo HUTT were recruited. Two probes for NIRS monitoring were placed on the forehead and above the left paravertebral level at the T10 to L1 space. These leads were attached to the Somanetics monitor (Somanetics, Troy MI). Tissue saturations (rSO2) obtained at two sites were recorded at rest, during the test, and throughout a 5-min recovery period. All data routinely obtained in HUTT were included in the research study database. Thirteen patients were recruited. The average age was 12.9 years. Five patients had a positive tilt-table test. The patients with syncope had rSO2 trends distinctly different from the normal subjects. In these patients, cerebral rSO2 showed a sudden decreasing trend from hypoperfusion, soon followed by various clinical symptoms. The cerebral rSO2 trend, which showed a dramatic increase, was paralleled by renal rSO2. These rSO2 trends were progressive until the patient was brought back to the supine position, which resulted in the rSO2 in both beds returning to baseline. Multisite NIRS-guided HUTT shows differential trends in the different vascular beds during postural gravitational stresses, and these patterns underlie the systemic oxygen consumption to flow-coupling dynamics observed during syncope.

Abstract
Patients who have had the Fontan procedure report poor exercise performance. Fontan subjects can tolerate a higher level of sub maximal activity than might be anticipated from VO2, suggesting a different mechanism of exercise limitation. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) provides a non-invasive, continuous method to monitor regional tissue oxygenation (rSO2) and thereby a window into regional oxygen supply-demand relationships. We hypothesized that Fontan patients would have altered rSO2 trends from normal population that might reflect the mechanisms of exercise limitation. All the patients without structural or acquired heart disease and Fontan patients were eligible for inclusion if they were ordered to undergo cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET). Four-site regional rSO2 were recorded continuously during exercise. The difference between the oxyhemoglobin saturation measured by pulse oximetry (SpO2) and NIRS (rSO2) was computed as the regional arterial-venous saturation difference (AVDO2). A total of 33 normal subjects and five Fontan subjects scheduled for CPET were recruited. None of the Fontan subjects had a fenestration of the conduit. In the cerebral circulation, the Fontan patients have a significantly higher initial slope of increasing AVDO2 compared with normals. After vAT, the AVDO2 slope is flat for Fontan patients (p = 0.02). There is also a substantially larger rebound of cerebral rSO2 than in normal subjects after QT (p < 0.0001). Reduced anaerobic exercise capacity in Fontan patients may be secondary to limitation of cerebral blood flow, secondary to low systemic venous compliance due to absence of a sub-pulmonary ventricle, and augmented hyperventilatory response during exercise.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is limited to children able to tolerate the equipment. Modification of instrumentation to reduce invasiveness will open CPET to a wider population. Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) devices measure regional oxyhemoglobin saturation (rSO2). We aim to predict anaerobic threshold (AT) during CPET using multiorgan NIRS monitoring. METHODS AND RESULTS Nineteen subjects were recruited. NIRS probes were placed on the forehead, para vertebral space, vastus lateralis, and deltoid muscle (rSO2 C, rSO2 R, rSO2 L and rSO2 A). rSO2 was recorded at six second intervals at rest, exercise, and through a five minute recovery period. The AT was computed using the v-slope method. AT was also predicted using NIRS data by identifying the inflection point of the rSO2 trends for all the four sites. AT can be estimated by the point of slope change of rSO2 R, rSO2 C and the four-site composite measure. CONCLUSIONS Multisite NIRS monitoring of visceral organs is a potential predictor of AT. This allows for monitoring in all forms of exercise over a wide age range.

Abstract
Despite reductions in surgical mortality, neurologic sequelae remain a devastating complication after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. Neurologic complications may be induced by a massive air embolism during cardiopulmonary bypass, even with extensive monitoring. This report describes a patient who had a fatal cerebral infarct during aortic valve and ascending aorta replacement surgery. We monitored jugular venous O2 saturation (SjvO2) and cerebral oximetry using near-infrared spectroscopy in the perioperative period. The operation and anesthesia were uneventful until the deep hypothermic total arrest for the replacement of the ascending aorta. However, restarting the cardiopulmonary bypass after deep hypothermic total arrest produced a brief (less than 10 seconds) but large amount of air in the root cannula. At this time, although cerebral oximetry did not show any changes, the SjvO2 decreased to 21% for about 3 minutes and then normalized. At 8 hours after surgery, the patient showed seizures and severe edema in both cerebral hemispheres on the MRI. The patient died 21 days after surgery.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a cerebral monitoring method that noninvasively and continuously measures cerebral hemoglobin oxygenation and the redox state of cytochrome oxidase using highly tissue-permeable near-infrared light. This technique now has wide clinical application, and its usefulness in the measurement of cerebral hemoglobin oxygenation has been confirmed under global cerebral injury and/or hypoxemic hypoxia; however, regional cerebral infarction located far from the monitoring site may not be detected by NIRS. Furthermore, the specificity and accuracy of the measurement of the redox state of cytochrome oxidase remain controversial. We apply NIRS to both animal and clinical investigations. Based on these results, we discuss the significance of the measurement of cerebral hemoglobin oxygenation and cytochrome oxidase in vivo and in clinical medicine. Using our algorithm, cytochrome oxidase signals are unaffected by hemoglobin signals, even when hematocrit values change from 35 to 5% under cardiopulmonary bypass in a dog model. In the clinical study, cytochrome oxidase during surgery is likely to be a good (though not perfect) predictor of postoperative cerebral outcome. NIRS appears to be a promising technology, but additional investigations are required to establish its clinical efficacy and justify its routine use during operative and perioperative periods.

Abstract
Improving survival from congenital cardiac repairs using cardiopulmonary bypass has appropriately shifted focus to neurologic outcomes. Hypoxic-ischemic mechanisms are the major cause of neurologic injury in neonatal cardiac surgery, and modifications of techniques of cardiopulmonary bypass can affect organ oxygen delivery and the propensity to injury both during and after surgery. Through successive refinements in the techniques of cardiopulmonary bypass, the risk factors for hypoxic-ischemic injury have been reduced, but not eliminated. The application of specific monitoring to enhance detection of hypoxic conditions associated with neurologic injury would both allow intervention on individual patients and drive refinements in strategies to further reduce risk. Specific neurologic monitoring techniques that can be used during cardiopulmonary bypass include near-infrared spectroscopy, transcranial Doppler ultrasonography, and electroencephalographic techniques. Of these, only near-infrared spectroscopy provides a continuous quantitative signal of the physiologic variable most related to injury and most amenable to intervention. This review will advocate wide adoption of near-infrared spectroscopy monitoring throughout the perioperative period, to enhance detection of hypoxic conditions and to drive patient-specific interventions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cardiac surgery is associated with intraoperative cerebral emboli, which can result in postoperative neurological complications. A new ultrasonic transducer (EmBlocker) can be positioned on the ascending aorta and activation of the EmBlocker is expected to divert emboli to the descending aorta, thereby decreasing emboli in the cerebral arteries. In this preliminary animal study, safety and efficiency of this technology were examined. METHODS In 14 pigs (+/-70 kg), a median sternotomy was performed and the EmBlocker was positioned on the aorta ascendens at the level of the bifurcation of the aorta and the innominate artery. In one animal temperature measurements were performed. During these measurements, the EmBlocker was activated for four periods of 120 s of high power (1.5 W/cm(2)) and for four periods of 600 s of low power (0.5 W/cm(2)). In the safety study (n=6), the EmBlocker was activated twice the expected clinical duration (eight periods of 120 s of high power and, subsequently, one period of 20 min of low power). Tissue samples (control and sonicated) were collected after 1 week for histopathological evaluation (aorta, trachea, esophagus, vagus nerves). In the efficiency study (n=7), extracorporeal circulation was installed. Emboli (air and solid (1200, size 500 microm-750 microm)) were introduced in the proximal ascending aorta and the EmBlocker was alternately activated with high power for solid emboli injections and low power for air emboli injections. Transcranial Doppler (TCD) was used to analyse middle cerebral artery blood flow for occurrence of embolic signals, which were manually counted offline. RESULTS Histopathology revealed no difference between control and sonicated tissue. There is a rise in temperature during EmBlocker activation, but in all measured tissues it was within limits; less then 42 degrees C for 2 min in the aorta wall directly under the EmBlocker. Use of the EmBlocker significantly reduced emboli in the cerebral arteries in an animal model; air emboli with 65% (left) and 69% (right) and solid emboli with 49% (left) and 50% (right). CONCLUSIONS The new ultrasound technology can safely be applied and is capable of reducing emboli in the cerebral arteries during extracorporeal circulation. Use of the EmBlocker in cardiac surgery bears the potential to lower the risk of postoperative neurological complications. Clinical feasibility studies are in progress.

Abstract
The near-IR cytochrome c oxidase (CCO) signal has potential as a clinical marker of changes in mitochondrial oxygen utilization. We examine the CCO signal response to reduced oxygen delivery in the healthy human brain. We induced a reduction in arterial oxygen saturation from baseline levels to 80% in eight healthy adult humans, while minimizing changes in end tidal carbon dioxide tension. We measured changes in the cerebral concentrations of oxidized CCO (Delta[oxCCO]), oxyhemoglobin (Delta[HbO(2)]), and deoxyhemoglobin (Delta[HHb]) using broadband near-IR spectroscopy (NIRS), and estimated changes in cerebral oxygen delivery (ecDO(2)) using pulse oximetry and transcranial Doppler ultrasonography. Results are presented as median (interquartile range). At the nadir of hypoxemia ecDO(2) decreased by 9.2 (5.4 to 12.1)% (p<0.0001), Delta[oxCCO] decreased by 0.24 (0.06 to 0.28) micromoles/l (p<0.01), total hemoglobin concentration increased by 2.83 (2.27 to 4.46) micromoles/l (p<0.0001), and change in hemoglobin difference concentration (Delta[Hbdiff]=Delta[HbO(2)]-Delta[HHb]) decreased by 12.72 (11.32 to 16.34) micromoles/l (p<0.0001). Change in ecDO(2) correlated with Delta[oxCCO] (r=0.78, p<0.001), but not with either change in total hemoglobin concentration or Delta[Hbdiff]. This is the first description of cerebral Delta[oxCCO] during hypoxemia in healthy adults. Studies are ongoing to investigate the clinical relevance of this signal in patients with traumatic brain injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been used during cardiac surgery to monitor cerebral oxygenation although the validity of this technique has yet to be established. Although optical pathlength included in the algorithm for calculating NIRS values is supposed to be constant, recent evidence has suggested that optical pathlength could be affected by acute hemodilution in animals. We conducted the present study to investigate whether optical pathlength changes during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and whether these changes affect NIRS values in adult patients. METHODS Nine patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery with CPB were enrolled in this study. Optical pathlength and cerebral NIRS values (oxyhemoglobin [DeltaO(2)Hb] and tissue oxygen index) were measured by phase-resolved spectroscopy and NIRO 100, respectively. Optical pathlength, hemoglobin concentration, and NIRS values were measured at the following points: 1) after the induction of anesthesia, 2) 10 min after the start of CPB, 3) 60 min after the start of CPB, and 4) 1 h after CPB. The associations between optical pathlength and other variables were analyzed by Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple regression analysis. RESULTS Optical pathlength significantly increased starting at 27.7-30.8 cm at 10 min, and 31.3 cm at 60 min after the start of CPB (P < 0.0001). Hemoglobin concentrations significantly decreased (from 11.2 to 7.1 g/dL at 10 min and 7.7 g/dL at 60 min P < 0.0001). There was a significant correlation (r = 0.55, P < 0.001) between percentage changes in pathlength and hemoglobin concentration. Multiple regression analysis showed that optical pathlength was a significant determinant of DeltaO2Hb. CONCLUSION The results indicate that optical pathlength can change during CPB and its changes may affect DeltaO2Hb.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The effect of hemodilution on neurologic outcome after cardiopulmonary bypass remains unclear. We studied the influences of hematocrit on cerebral oxygenation and neuropathologic outcome in a piglet model. METHODS Eleven piglets (9.3 +/- 1.1 kg) were randomized into 2 groups. Five piglets (group H) received a total blood prime resulting in a high hematocrit (33.0% +/- 2.3%), and 6 piglets (group L) received a crystalloid prime resulting in a low hematocrit (14.0% +/- 3.2%). Both groups underwent 90 minutes of moderate hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (28 degrees C) with alpha-stat strategy. Cerebral oxygenation was monitored by near-infrared spectroscopy. Group L received a blood transfusion immediately after cardiopulmonary bypass to reach the postoperative target hematocrit of 30%. The brain was fixed in situ 6 hours after weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass, and a histologic score for neurologic injury was assessed. RESULTS There were no significant differences in arterial blood gas analyses throughout the experiment between the groups. Mean arterial pressure, mixed venous oxygen saturation, and heart rate were significantly higher in group H compared with group L during hypothermia. Oxyhemoglobin and total hemoglobin signals detected by near-infrared spectroscopy were significantly lower in group L (analysis of variance, P < .0001), although the tissue oxygenation index was not different during cardiopulmonary bypass. Group L showed a poorer histologic score compared with group H (P = .0071). CONCLUSIONS Excessive hemodilution, such as a hematocrit of less than 15%, may be associated with a high incidence of neurologic injury. Further studies are required to determine the safety limits of hematocrit during pediatric cardiopulmonary bypass.

Abstract
We have previously used a continuous four-wavelength near-infrared spectrometer to measure changes in the cerebral concentrations of oxy-haemoglobin (Delta[HbO(2)] and deoxy-haemoglobin (Delta[HHb]) during head-up tilt in patients with primary autonomic failure. The measured changes in light attenuation also allow calculation of changes in the concentration of oxidized cytochrome-c-oxidase (Delta[(ox)CCO]), and this paper analyses the Delta[(ox)CCO] during the severe episodes of orthostatic hypotension produced by this experimental protocol. We studied 12 patients during a passive change in position from supine to a 60 degrees head-up tilt. The challenge caused a reduction in mean blood pressure of 59.93 (+/-26.12) mmHg (Mean (+/-SD), p < 0.0001), which was associated with a reduction in the total concentration of haemoglobin (Delta[HbT] = Delta[HbO(2)] + Delta[HHb]) of 5.02 (+/-3.81) microM (p < 0.0001) and a reduction in the haemoglobin difference concentration (Delta[Hb(diff)] = Delta[HbO(2)] - Delta[HHb]) of 14.4 (+/-6.73) microM (p < 0.0001). We observed a wide range of responses in Delta[(ox)CCO]. Six patients demonstrated a drop in Delta[(ox)CCO] (0.17 +/- 0.15 microM); four patients demonstrated no change (0.01 +/- 0.12 microM) and two patients showed an increase in Delta[(ox)CCO] (0.21 +/- 0.01 microM). Investigation of the association between the changes in concentrations of haemoglobin species and the Delta[(ox)CCO] for each patient show a range of relationships. This suggests that a simple mechanism for crosstalk, which might produce artefactual changes in [(ox)CCO], is not present between the haemoglobin and the (ox)CCO NIRS signals. Further investigation is required to determine the clinical significance of the changes in [(ox)CCO].

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to determine a marker that predicts delirium using preoperative oxidative processes in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass surgery. METHOD Twelve of the 50 patients included in the study showed signs of delirium during postoperative follow-up. The Delirium Rating Scale was used in patients with delirium according to DSM-IV-TR in the postoperative period. Venous blood samples were obtained from the patients the day before and the day after the surgery to determine plasma antioxidant enzyme levels. RESULTS While there were no differences in preoperative superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in both groups, catalase (CAT) levels were significantly lower in the delirium group. Postoperative SOD and MDA levels were also higher in the delirium group, while the GSH-Px levels were found to be lower when compared with those during the preoperative period. In the nondelirium group, the postoperative MDA and GSH-Px levels were found to be lower than preoperative levels, and postoperative SOD levels were found to be higher than preoperative levels. CAT levels were lower in the delirium group when the pre- and postoperative levels were compared in both groups. The postoperative levels of SOD, GSH-Px and CAT in the nondelirium group and MDA in the delirium group were significantly higher than preoperative levels. CONCLUSION Patients with low preoperative CAT levels appeared to be more susceptible to delirium than patients with higher CAT levels.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the clinical utility of near-infrared spectroscopic (NIRS) monitoring of cerebral (ScO2) and splanchnic (SsO2) oxygen saturations for estimation of systemic oxygen transport after the Norwood procedure. METHODS ScO2 and SsO2 were measured with NIRS cerebral and thoracolumbar probes (in humans). Respiratory mass spectrometry was used to measure systemic oxygen consumption (O2). Arterial (SaO2), superior vena caval (SvO2) and pulmonary venous oxygen saturations were measured at 2 to 4 h intervals to derive pulmonary (Qp) and systemic blood flow (Qs), systemic oxygen delivery (DO2) and oxygen extraction ratio (ERO2). Mixed linear regression was used to test correlations. A study of 7 pigs after cardiopulmonary bypass (study 1) was followed by a study of 11 children after the Norwood procedure (study 2). RESULTS Study 1. ScO2 moderately correlated with SvO2, mean arterial pressure, Qs, DO2 and ERO2 (slope 0.30, 0.64. 2.30, 0.017 and -32.5, p < 0.0001) but not with SaO2, arterial oxygen pressure (PaO2), haemoglobin and O2. Study 2. ScO2 correlated well with SvO2, SaO2, PaO2 and mean arterial pressure (slope 0.43, 0.61, 0.99 and 0.52, p < 0.0001) but not with haemoglobin (slope 0.24, p > 0.05). ScO2 correlated weakly with O2 (slope -0.07, p = 0.05) and moderately with Qs, DO2 and ERO2 (slope 3.2, 0.03, -33.2, p < 0.0001). SsO2 showed similar but weaker correlations. CONCLUSIONS ScO2 and SsO2 may reflect the influence of haemodynamic variables and oxygen transport after the Norwood procedure. However, the interpretation of NIRS data, in terms of both absolute values and trends, is difficult to rely on clinically.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass carries a risk for neurologic complications because of cerebral hypoperfusion and microembolization. The basic goals of a novel closed minimized extracorporeal circulation are to prevent excessive hemodilution and to avoid blood-air interface. The aim of this prospective randomized study was to determine the effect of using the minimized extracorporeal circulation system compared with open conventional extracorporeal circulation on cerebral tissue oxygenation and microembolization. METHODS Forty patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (20 in each group) were continuously monitored for changes in cerebral oxygenated hemoglobin and tissue oxygenation index by using near-infrared spectroscopy. Total microembolic count and gaseous embolic count in both median cerebral arteries were monitored with multifrequency transcranial Doppler instrumentation. RESULTS In the conventional extracorporeal circulation group there was a highly significant reduction in both cerebral oxygenated hemoglobin and tissue oxygenation index from the start to the end of cardiopulmonary bypass (P < .01). The rate of decrease in cerebral oxygenated hemoglobin after aortic cannulation was faster in the conventional extracorporeal circulation group (F test = 9.03, P < .001). No significant changes with respect to cerebral oxygenated hemoglobin or tissue oxygenation index occurred in the minimized extracorporeal circulation group, except at the beginning of rewarming (P < .01). Total embolic count, as well as gaseous embolic count, in the left and right median cerebral arteries was significantly lower in the minimized extracorporeal circulation group (all P < .05). Postoperative bleeding was greater (P < .05) and the transfusion rate was higher (P < .05) in the conventional extracorporeal circulation group. CONCLUSIONS Use of closed minimized cardiopulmonary bypass compared with conventional open cardiopulmonary bypass preserves cerebral tissue oxygenation and reduces cerebral microembolization.

Abstract
Cerebral revascularization continues to evolve as an option in the setting of ischemia. The potential to favorably influence stroke risk and the natural history of cerebrovascular occlusive disease is being evaluated by the ongoing Carotid Occlusion Surgery Study and the Japanese Extracranial-Intracranial Bypass Trial. For those patients who undergo bypass in the setting of ischemia, four key areas of follow-up include functional neurological status, neurocognitive status, bypass patency, and status of cerebral blood flow and perfusion. Several stroke scales that can be used to assess functional status include the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, Bathel Index, Modified Rankin Scale, and Stroke Specific Quality of Life. Neurocognition can be checked using the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status, among other tests. Bypass patency is checked intraoperatively using various flow probes and postoperatively using magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) or computed tomographic angiography (CTA). Cerebral blood flow and perfusion can be assessed using a host of modalities that include positron emission tomography (PET), xenon CT, single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), transcranial Doppler (TCD), CT, and MR. Paired blood flow studies after a cerebral vasodilatory stimulus using one of these modalities can determine the state of autoregulatory vasodilation (Stage 1 hemodynamic compromise). However, only PET with oxygen extraction fraction measurements can reliably assess for Stage 2 compromise (misery perfusion). This article discusses the various clinical, neuropsychological, and radiographic techniques available to assess a patient's clinical state and cerebral blood flow before and after cerebral revascularization.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relationship between cerebral oxygen saturation and neuropsychological dysfunction after cardiac surgery. DESIGN Prospective and observational study. SETTING Operating room and cardiac floor of a university hospital. PARTICIPANTS One hundred one patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass INTERVENTION Bilateral noninvasive cerebral oxygen saturations were monitored over the forehead. The anesthetic and surgical techniques were performed as usual, and no interventions were attempted based on the monitor. Neuropsychological outcome was assessed by the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and the antisaccadic eye movement test (ASEM). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Preoperative baseline values of cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO(2)) were 58.6% +/- 10.2%. Patients with the nadir rSO(2) <35% had significantly higher incidences of postoperative ASEM and MMSE impairments than those with rSO(2) always above 35% (44% and 33% v 12% and 9%, respectively). Patients with areas of rSO(2) <40% for more than 10 minutes . % presented with a significantly higher incidence of postoperative ASEM and MMSE impairments than those with areas of rSO(2) <40% for less than 10 minutes . % (42% and 32% v 13% and 10%, respectively). Patients with postoperative ASEM or MMSE impairment had significantly lower nadir rSO(2) and significantly larger areas of rSO(2) <40%, <45%, and <50% than those with normal postoperative neuropsychological outcome. However, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that areas of rSO(2) <40% were the only predictor for both postoperative ASEM and MMSE impairments. CONCLUSIONS Intraoperative cerebral oxygen desaturation is associated with early postoperative neuropsychological dysfunction in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. However, it remains to be determined whether interventions to maintain adequate cerebral oxygenation may improve neuropsychological outcome.

Cytochrome-c-oxidase redox changes during visual stimulation measured by near-infrared spectroscopy cannot be explained by a mere cross talk artefact. Neuroimage 2004; 22:109-19. [PMID: 15110001 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2003.09.053] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2003] [Revised: 09/22/2003] [Accepted: 09/26/2003] [Indexed: 10/26/2022] Open
Abstract
The detection of redox changes in cytochrome-c-oxidase ([Cyt-ox]) in response to cerebral activation by non-invasive NIRS is hampered by methodological spectroscopic issues related to the modification of the Beer-Lambert law. Also, the question whether a change in the enzyme's redox-state is elicited by functional stimulation is unresolved. In a previous study, we found physiological evidence in favour of an activation-induced increase in oxidation of the enzyme [J. Cereb. Blood Flow Metab. 19 (1999) 592], while in a second study on spectroscopic cross talk, we found that the [Cyt-ox] changes to potentially be an artefact of the spectroscopic approach [J. Biomed. Opt. 7 (2002) 51]. Here, we use two different stimuli which differentially activate areas either rich or poor in [Cyt-ox] content (blob/interblob in visual cortex V1 and pale/thin stripes in V2) to further clarify this apparent discrepancy. In a first experiment, two stimuli were presented in an alternating fashion for 20 s and all stimulation periods were separated by resting periods of 40 s. We observed similar changes in [Cyt-ox] for both stimuli. To become more sensitive to the potentially very small optical changes related to changes in [Cyt-ox], we tried to minimise global haemodynamic and metabolic effects in a second experiment by omitting the resting periods. Our hypothesis was that [Cyt-ox] changes could be fully explained by cross talk as it is predicted from our last study [J. Biomed. Opt. 7 (2002) 51]. However, in more than half of the experiments, we were not able to model the changes in Cyt-ox calculated from measured attenuation spectra as a cross talk artefact. We interpret this finding as an argument in favour of the existence of [Cyt-ox] changes in response to functional stimulation. This finding, however, does not lessen the liability of the [Cyt-ox] changes to cross talk and calls for great caution when [Cyt-ox] changes are derived from NIRS measurements based on the modified Beer-Lambert approach. Further (invasive) validation studies are required.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to show the influence of cerebral oxygenation (regional cerebral oxygen saturation rSO(2) by near infrared spectroscopy) and of the nocturnal arterial oxygen saturation (SatO(2) by pulse oximetry) on the restitution of cognitive functions in patients aged between 40 and 85 years scheduled for elective hip arthroplasty. METHODS A total of 40 patients (ASA II) were randomized to be operated either in general anaesthesia or regional anaesthesia. The patients were additionally classified by age (40-64 years and 65-85 years). Cognitive functions were tested 14-16 h pre-operatively (t0), 1.5 h post-operatively (t1) and at the first and third postoperative days (t2 and t3). During testing, as well as during surgery and postoperatively until t1, rSO(2) was continuously measured. SatO(2) was measured in the night before surgery (N0) and for 3 nights after surgery (N1, N2, N3) between 22.00 p.m. and 5.00 a.m. These measurements were divided into interval groups (80-83%, 84-87%, 88-91%, 92-95%, 96-100%). RESULTS Almost all cognitive functions were significantly reduced at t1 in all groups compared to t0, but recovered up to the third postoperative day (t3). RSO(2) in contrast was significantly reduced in all groups compared to t0 at the third postoperative day (t3). The relative proportion of the intervals compared to the total measurement time for SatO(2) shifted in both anaesthesia procedures: before surgery (N0) the most frequented interval was 96-100%, after surgery (N1, N2) it was 88-91%. There was no correlation between rSO(2), the restitution of the tested cognitive functions and SatO(2). CONCLUSIONS Cognitive functions recovered completely during the first 3 postoperative days in patients scheduled for elective hip surgery under general or regional anaesthesia regardless of age and type of anaesthesia. This restitution of cognition occurred despite a significant decrease of cerebral oxygenation (rSO(2)) and despite an increase of nocturnal hypoxaemic intervals. Changes of the rsO(2) up to 3% below the baseline values (measured by NIRS) do not predict cognitive restitution. A minimal limiting value of the rSO(2) could not be defined.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerebral oxygen saturation (ScO2) can be assessed by near-infrared spectroscopy. We investigated the correlation between early postoperative cognitive performance and intraoperative ScO2 in a prospective observational setting. METHODS Forty-seven patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass underwent preoperative and postoperative neuropsychological evaluation. Patients were classified according to the presence or absence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Cognitive dysfunction was defined as an individual test score decrease of more than one standard deviation in two or more of the five tests. During operation ScO2 was continuously measured using an INVOS 4100 device. Cerebral oxygen saturation values were analyzed with reference to two cutoff points, which should reflect low cerebral oxygenation: an ScO2 less than 40% and a drop of more than 25% from individual baseline values. The duration and extent of ScO2 values below these two cutoff points was compared between the patients with and without cognitive dysfunction. RESULTS Sixteen patients (34%) showed postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Cerebral oxygen saturation values less than 40% occurred in 17 patients for a mean (+/- standard error of the mean) of 17.2 +/- 6.5 minutes, whereas a decrease of more than 25% from baseline values occurred in 37 patients for 52.7 +/- 7.8 minutes. The duration and extent below the two cutoff ScO2 values was similar in patients with and without cognitive dysfunction. CONCLUSIONS Intraoperative regional ScO2 as assessed by near-infrared spectroscopy with the INVOS 4100 device is not predictive for postoperative cognitive performance in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass.

Abstract
UNLABELLED This study was conducted to investigate whether jugular bulb venous oxygen saturation (SjVO(2)) predicted cognitive decline after cardiac surgery with hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). We studied 35 patients undergoing cardiac surgery. After the induction of anesthesia, a 5.5F fiberoptic oximetry catheter was retrogradely inserted into the jugular bulb, and SjVO(2) and other cerebral oxygenation variables were analyzed before, during, and after CPB. At each point, an oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve was drawn, and the P(50) value of jugular bulb venous blood was calculated by computer analysis. Cognitive function was assessed with the revised version of Hasegawa's Dementia Scale and the Benton Revised Visual Retention Test before and early after the operation. In 15 patients (the Decline group), cognitive function was declined after surgery, whereas it remained unchanged in 20 patients (the Normal group). SjVO(2) was significantly higher and cerebral oxygen extraction was significantly lower before and during CPB in the Decline group than in the Normal group (P < 0.05). The oxygen pressure at an oxygen saturation of 50% was significantly lower before and after CPB in the Decline group than in the Normal group (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that high SjVO(2) was a predictor of cognitive decline after cardiac surgery. We conclude that high SjVO(2) was associated with cognitive decline after cardiac surgery with hypothermic CPB. IMPLICATIONS Jugular bulb venous oxygen desaturation has been suggested as a predictor of cognitive decline after cardiac surgery. However, the clinical value of jugular bulb venous oxygen saturation (SjVO(2)) may be limited during hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) when oxygen affinity to hemoglobin is increased. This study shows that high SjVO(2) before and during hypothermic CPB is a predictor of subsequent cognitive decline.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy assessment of cytochrome oxygenation could be a valuable technique to monitor cerebral intraneuronal oxygen delivery during cardiopulmonary bypass. However, the validity of the cytochrome signal has been questioned as it could easily be overwhelmed by the Hb signal. Five- to six-week-old control piglets (n = 5) underwent cardiopulmonary bypass at 37 degrees C. Study animals (n = 10) received 100 mg/kg of sodium cyanide to uncouple cytochrome from HB: Hematocrit was then decreased in steps of 5% from 35 to 5% with crystalloid hemodilution. In study piglets, the initiation of cardiopulmonary bypass was associated with oxygenated Hb increasing from 0 to 62.9 +/- 25.6 microM times the differential path-length factor, and oxidized cytochrome a,a3 increasing to 1.9 +/- 1.8 microM times the differential path-length factor. Cyanide caused oxygenated Hb to increase further to 132.3 +/- 48.9 microM times the differential path-length factor, and oxidized cytochrome c decreased to -7.0 +/- 2.6 microM times the differential path-length factor as anticipated, confirming uncoupling of electron transport. However, hemodilution subsequently resulted in linear decreases in oxidized cytochrome a,a3 (F = 8.57, p < 0.001) suggesting important cross-talk between the Hb and cytochrome signals as cytochrome is only intracellular. In control piglets, tissue oxygenation index showed a positive correlation with pump flow (r = 0.986, p = 0.013). The cytochrome signal as presently measured by near-infrared spectroscopy is highly dependent on hematocrit.
