Abstract
One of the main objectives in neurosurgical procedures is the prevention of cerebral ischemia and hypoxia leading to secondary brain injury. Different methods for early detection of intraoperative cerebral ischemia and hypoxia have been used. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a simple, non-invasive method for monitoring cerebral oxygenation increasingly used today. The aim of this study was to systematically review the brain monitoring with NIRS in neurosurgery. The search process resulted in the detection of 324 articles using valid keywords on the electronic databases, including Embase, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library. Subsequently, the full texts of 34 studies were reviewed, and finally 11 articles (seven prospective studies, three retrospective studies, and one randomized controlled trial) published from 2005 to 2020 were identified as eligible for systematic review. Meta-analysis was not possible due to high heterogeneity in neurological and neurosurgical conditions of patients, expression of different clinical outcomes, and different standard reference tests in the studies reviewed. The results showed that NIRS is a non-invasive cerebral oximetry that provides continuous and measurable cerebral oxygenation information and can be used in a variety of clinical settings.

Cerebral oximetry monitoring in non-intubated patients undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography under propofol-induced sedation: a prospective observational study. Ann Gastroenterol 2021; 34:736-742. [PMID: 34475746 PMCID: PMC8375660 DOI: 10.20524/aog.2021.0637] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2021] [Accepted: 03/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Prolonged propofol-induced deep sedation increases the risk for sedation-related complications. Cerebral oximetry enables prompt assessment of tissue oxygenation by demonstrating the regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation (rSO2) of the cerebral cortex. This study aimed to: evaluate cerebral oxygenation under deep sedation during an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) procedure; determine the cerebral desaturation event (CDE) rate; and assess the predictive capacity of CDEs for sedation-related complications. Methods All consecutive patients who underwent ERCP between September and December 2019 were included prospectively. Propofol monotherapy was used and sedation level was assessed using the bispectral index (BIS). The target level of sedation was deep sedation, defined by BIS values 40-60. Participants were monitored with arterial blood gas analysis and INVOS 5100C cerebral oximeter. RSO2 values were registered prior to sedation (baseline value), every 5 min during the sedation period and at recovery of consciousness. BIS values were recorded simultaneously. CDE was defined as a drop >10% from individual baseline rSO2. Results Sixty patients were enrolled. Mean baseline rSO2 was 65.1% and BIS values ranged from 18-85. No significant correlation was observed between mean rSO2 measurements and mean BIS values throughout the recordings (P = 0.193). Data from patients aged ≥65 years were analyzed separately and the results were similar. The CDE rate was 2.7%, but no CDE was associated with clinical manifestations. Twelve sedation-related complications occurred without the presence of cerebral desaturation. Conclusion Cerebral oxygenation remained independent of changes in sedation depth and cerebral oximetry monitoring did not detect complications earlier than standard monitors.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effects of the apolipoprotein E gene (APOE) on the cerebral oxygen saturation of patients after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods: Clinical data of 114 patients with TBI and 54 normal people were collected. The APOE genotypes of all subjects were determined by quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR). The regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) of TBI patients and normal people were monitored by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Results: The mean rScO2 of patients was (55.06 ± 7.60)% in the early stage of TBI, which was significantly lower than that of normal people (67.21 ± 7.80)% (P < 0.05). Single-factor and multifactor logistic regression analyses showed APOEε4 was an independent risk factor that caused the early decline of rScO2 in TBI patients. Furthermore, in the TBI group, the rScO2 of APOEε4 carriers (52.23 ± 8.02)% was significantly lower than that of non-ε4 carriers (60.33 ± 7.12)% (P < 0.05). But in the normal group, no significant differences in rScO2 were found between APOEε4 carriers and non-carriers. Conclusion: The rScO2 may be significantly decreased after TBI, and APOEε4 may be a risk factor for decreased rScO2 in the early stage of TBI.

Abstract
Cerebral complications are common in perioperative settings even in non-neurosurgical procedures. These include postoperative cognitive dysfunction or delirium as well as cerebrovascular accidents. During surgery, it is essential to ensure an adequate degree of sedation and analgesia, and at the same time, to provide hemodynamic and respiratory stability in order to minimize neurological complications. In this context, the role of neuromonitoring in the operating room is gaining interest, even in the non-neurolosurgical population. The use of multimodal neuromonitoring can potentially reduce the occurrence of adverse effects during and after surgery, and optimize the administration of anesthetic drugs. In addition to the traditional focus on monitoring hemodynamic and respiratory systems during general anesthesia, the ability to constantly monitor the activity and maintenance of brain homeostasis, creating evidence-based protocols, should also become part of the standard of care: in this challenge, neuromonitoring comes to our aid. In this review, we aim to describe the role of the main types of noninvasive neuromonitoring such as those based on electroencephalography (EEG) waves (EEG, Entropy module, Bispectral Index, Narcotrend Monitor), near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) based on noninvasive measurement of cerebral regional oxygenation, and Transcranial Doppler used in the perioperative settings in non-neurosurgical intervention. We also describe the advantages, disadvantage, and limitation of each monitoring technique.

Abstract
Introduction: Currently, the most available treatment for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is thrombolytic therapy with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (r-TPA). A challenge in r-TPA therapy is the prediction of recovery in each case. Objective: The aim was to find a possible relationship between the cerebral oximetry indexes and the clinical outcome of r-TPA therapy to assess the cerebral oximetry as a non-invasive monitoring agent for therapy. Methods: The inclusion criteria were all patients with AIS who received r-TPA. The neurologic status was evaluated based on the national institutes of health stroke scale (NIHSS) score at arrival, and after a period of 24 hours. In addition, the levels of brain oxygenation in both hemispheres were measured before and continuously over the first 24 hours after r-TPA injection, using an oximetric sensor in the frontal lobes. The clinical success was defined as a 4-point improvement from the baseline NIHSS. Results: Total 44 patients with the mean age of 58.2 ± 2.18 years were enrolled, of whom 68.18% were male. Twenty-eight patients remained clinically unimproved and 16 patients were improved. A significant difference was found in the mean surface area under the brain oximetric curve in the 24 hour, in the affected hemisphere in the improved group, compared to the unimproved group (P = 0.007). There was a significant difference between the mean increase in brain oxygenation within 24 hours in the improved and unimproved groups (P = 0.002). Conclusion: It is likely that, The cerebral oximetry could contribute to predict the likelihood of r-TPA prognosis in patients with AIS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Noninvasive monitoring of cerebral physiology could potentially guide pre-hospital management of patients with traumatic injuries. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is one such modality but the consistency of monitoring performance remains unclear. This study assessed the proportion of successful signal collection during pre-hospital care. METHODS As part of a prospective observational study, an independent study observer placed three sensors for a Nonin 7610 NIRS device; two on the forehead and one on the forearm. NIRS records were analysed for time of adequate monitoring signal in each sensor (>70% of total pre-hospital time). We also compared pre-hospital scene and transport times for patients with or without NIRS monitoring. RESULTS Sixty-three patients with monitoring sensors applied were compared to 255 patients where no study observer was on board and 97 without NIRS monitoring for various reasons within the same time period. The proportion of pre-hospital time with successful monitoring (>70%) was 71.4% (45 of 63) for all three sensors, with at least two sensors functional in 90.4% (57 of 63). The median (interquartile range) scene time was 19 (11-23) minutes in patients with NIRS monitoring compared to 18 (11-27) minutes without NIRS monitoring (P = .570). There was no difference in the median (interquartile range) total pre-hospital time between patients with or without monitoring sensors (72 [59-89] versus 72 [59-80] minutes; P = .605). CONCLUSIONS In this pre-hospital observational feasibility study with dedicated personnel an acceptable proportion of measurement time was achieved in over 90% of monitored subjects. Addition of NIRS monitoring did not alter pre-hospital scene or transport times in this research setting.

Abstract
Background The monitoring of regional cerebral oxygen saturation (SrO2) using near-infrared spectroscopy is useful method to detect cerebral ischemia during. Sevoflurane and propofol decrease cerebral metabolic rate (CMRO2) in a similar manner, but the effects on the cerebral blood flow (CBF) are different. We hypothesized that the effects of sevoflurane and propofol on SrO2 were different in patients with deficits of CBF. This study compared the effect of sevoflurane and propofol on SrO2 of patients undergoing cerebral endarterectomy (CEA). Method Patients undergoing CEA were randomly assigned to the sevoflurane or propofol group (n = 74). The experiment was preceded in 2 stages based on carotid artery clamping. The first stage was from induction of anaesthesia to immediately before clamping of the carotid artery, and the second stage was until the end of the operation after clamping of the carotid artery. Oxygen saturation (SrO2, SpO2), haemodynamic variables (blood pressure, heart rate), respiratory parameters (end-tidal carbon dioxide tension, inspired oxygen tension), concentration of anesthetics, and anesthesia depth (bispectral index score) were recorded. Results During stage 1 period (before carotid artery clamping), the mean value of the relative changes in SrO2 was higher (P = 0.033) and the maximal decrease in SrO2 was lower in the sevoflurane group compared with the propofol group (P = 0.019) in the contralateral (normal) site. However, there is no difference in ipsilateral site (affected site). SrO2 decreased after carotid artery clamping and increased after declamping, but the difference was not significant between two groups. Changes in mean arterial blood pressure was lower in sevoflurane group than propofol group after the carotid artery declamping (P = 0.048). Conclusion Propofol-remifentanil anesthesia was comparable with sevoflurane-remifentanil anesthesia in an aspect of preserving the SrO2 in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delirium is an acute mental disorder and common postoperative complication. Monitoring regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) in endovascular therapeutic surgery may allow real-time monitoring of cerebral desaturation, avoiding profound cerebral dysfunction, and reducing the incidence of delirium. We sought to examine the incidence of delirium in patients undergoing endovascular surgery. METHODS This was a clinical cohort trial (registered with http://www.clinicaltrials.gov [NCT02356133]). We monitored the rSO2 of 43 patients undergoing general anesthesia and cerebral endovascular surgery. The occurrence of delirium after surgery was recorded with the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM). Multivariate logistic regression was performed to identify the main predictor of delirium. RESULTS rSO2 was significantly different between the delirium and no-delirium groups. The occurrence of delirium was 35% in our cohort, and higher rSO2 desaturation scores were significantly associated with profound delirium (higher CAM score; odds ratio = 1.002; P = 0.021). The maximum declines of systolic blood pressure were 24.86 (21.78-27.93) and 32.98 (28.78-37.19) in the no-delirium and delirium groups, respectively, which were significantly different (P = 0.002) but not closely associated with delirium in multivariate analysis (P = 0.512). Anesthesia, mechanical ventilation duration, and having two vascular risk factors differed significantly between groups but were poorly associated with delirium outcome. CONCLUSIONS Elevated rSO2 desaturation score was predictive of the occurrence of postoperative delirium following endovascular surgery. Monitoring rSO2 is invaluable for managing controlled hypotension during endovascular surgery and reducing postoperative delirium. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02356133 .

Abstract
Background:Cerebral hypoxia is one of the most important causes of secondary brain injury during neurosurgical procedures and in neurointensive care. In patients with brain injury, cerebrovascular reactivity may be impaired and a decrease in mean arterial pressure or cerebral perfusion pressure may lead to inadequate cerebral blood flow and secondary ischemia. There are several techniques available to measure brain oxygenation. In particular, near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive neuromonitoring technique and there has been a rapid expansion of clinical evidence that NIRS reduces perioperative neurologic complications. Methods:This systematic review synthesizes prospective and retrospective cohort studies that investigate the benefit of using NIRS in prevention of perioperative neurologic complications. The methodological quality of these studies is appraised.Results:Seven studies were included in this systematic review. The methodological quality of each study was assessed. They had representative patient populations, clear selection criteria and clear descriptions of study designs. Reproducible study protocols with ethics board approval were present. Clinical results were described in sufficient detail and were applicable to patient undergoing neurosurgical procedures and in neurointensive care. Limitations included small sample sizes and lack of reference standard.Conclusions:This systematic review synthesizes the most current evidence of non-invasive, inexpensive, and continuous measurement of cerebral oxygenation by NIRS. Results gained from these studies are clinically useful and shed light on how this neuromonitoring technique is beneficial in preventing perioperative neurological complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various techniques have been employed for the early detection of perioperative cerebral ischaemia and hypoxia. Cerebral near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is increasingly used in this clinical scenario to monitor brain oxygenation. However, it is unknown whether perioperative cerebral NIRS monitoring and the subsequent treatment strategies are of benefit to patients. OBJECTIVES To assess the effects of perioperative cerebral NIRS monitoring and corresponding treatment strategies in adults and children, compared with blinded or no cerebral oxygenation monitoring, or cerebral oxygenation monitoring based on non-NIRS technologies, on the detection of cerebral oxygen desaturation events (CDEs), neurological outcomes, non-neurological outcomes and socioeconomic impact (including cost of hospitalization and length of hospital stay). SEARCH METHODS We searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL 2016, Issue 12), Embase (1974 to 20 December 2016) and MEDLINE (PubMed) (1975 to 20 December 2016). We also searched the World Health Organization (WHO) International Clinical Trials Registry Platform for ongoing studies on 20 December 2016. We updated this search in November 2017, but these results have not yet been incorporated in the review. We imposed no language restriction. SELECTION CRITERIA We included all relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) dealing with the use of cerebral NIRS in the perioperative setting (during the operation and within 72 hours after the operation), including the operating room, the postanaesthesia care unit and the intensive care unit. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two authors independently selected studies, assessed risk of bias and extracted data. For binary outcomes, we calculated the risk ratio (RR) and its 95% confidence interval (CI). For continuous data, we estimated the mean difference (MD) between groups and its 95% CI. As we expected clinical and methodological heterogeneity between studies, we employed a random-effects model for analyses and we examined the data for heterogeneity (I2 statistic). We created a 'Summary of findings' table using GRADEpro. MAIN RESULTS We included 15 studies in the review, comprising a total of 1822 adult participants. There are 12 studies awaiting classification, and eight ongoing studies.None of the 15 included studies considered the paediatric population. Four studies were conducted in the abdominal and orthopaedic surgery setting (lumbar spine, or knee and hip replacement), one study in the carotid endarterectomy setting, and the remaining 10 studies in the aortic or cardiac surgery setting. The main sources of bias in the included studies related to potential conflict of interest from industry sponsorship, unclear blinding status or missing participant data.Two studies with 312 participants considered postoperative neurological injury, however no pooled effect estimate could be calculated due to discordant direction of effect between studies (low-quality evidence). One study (N = 126) in participants undergoing major abdominal surgery reported that 4/66 participants experienced neurological injury with blinded monitoring versus 0/56 in the active monitoring group. A second study (N = 195) in participants having coronary artery bypass surgery reported that 1/96 participants experienced neurological injury in the blinded monitoring group compared with 4/94 participants in the active monitoring group.We are uncertain whether active cerebral NIRS monitoring has an important effect on the risk of postoperative stroke because of the low number of events and wide confidence interval (RR 0.25, 95% CI 0.03 to 2.20; 2 studies, 240 participants; low-quality evidence).We are uncertain whether active cerebral NIRS monitoring has an important effect on postoperative delirium because of the wide confidence interval (RR 0.63, 95% CI 0.27 to 1.45; 1 study, 190 participants; low-quality evidence).Two studies with 126 participants showed that active cerebral NIRS monitoring may reduce the incidence of mild postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) as defined by the original studies at one week after surgery (RR 0.53, 95% CI 0.30 to 0.95, I2 = 49%, low-quality evidence).Based on six studies with 962 participants, there was moderate-quality evidence that active cerebral oxygenation monitoring probably does not decrease the occurrence of POCD (decline in cognitive function) at one week after surgery (RR 0.62, 95% CI 0.37 to 1.04, I2 = 80%). The different type of monitoring equipment in one study could potentially be the cause of the heterogeneity.We are uncertain whether active cerebral NIRS monitoring has an important effect on intraoperative mortality or postoperative mortality because of the low number of events and wide confidence interval (RR 0.63, 95% CI 0.08 to 5.03, I2= 0%; 3 studies, 390 participants; low-quality evidence). There was no evidence to determine whether routine use of NIRS-based cerebral oxygenation monitoring causes adverse effects. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS The effects of perioperative active cerebral NIRS monitoring of brain oxygenation in adults for reducing the occurrence of short-term, mild POCD are uncertain due to the low quality of the evidence. There is uncertainty as to whether active cerebral NIRS monitoring has an important effect on postoperative stroke, delirium or death because of the low number of events and wide confidence intervals. The conclusions of this review may change when the eight ongoing studies are published and the 12 studies awaiting assessment are classified. More RCTs performed in the paediatric population and high-risk patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery (e.g. neurosurgery, carotid endarterectomy and other surgery) are needed.

Abstract
Endovascular thrombectomy is recommended for a persistent ischemic penumbra if recanalization cannot be achieved by the intravenous (IV) administration of recombinant tissue-plasminogen activator (rt-PA) alone. Although endovascular thrombectomy is a powerful treatment for major cerebral artery occlusion, the monitoring of recanalization and reperfusion during acute ischemic stroke presents a therapeutic challenge, and a previous study reported the usefulness of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) for intraoperative monitoring during emergency endovascular thrombectomy for acute large ischemic stroke. Here we present our experience with a relevant case series. We applied NIRS monitoring during endovascular thrombectomy in two patients with large ischemic stroke following carotid artery occlusion and one patient with a non-large ischemic stroke caused by a distal middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion. In the patients with large ischemic stroke, complete recanalization of the internal carotid artery was achieved, and NIRS revealed a very good regional oxygen saturation (rSO2) response. By contrast, in the patient with non-large ischemic stroke, the rSO2 did not change, despite complete recanalization of the distal MCA. Our findings suggest the limited usefulness of intraoperative NIRS monitoring during emergency endovascular thrombectomy for non-large acute ischemic stroke caused by a distal MCA occlusion. However, intraoperative NIRS monitoring could be used practically to detect recanalization of the major artery during thrombectomy and early IV rt-PA administration in cases involving major artery occlusion.

Abstract
Neurocritical care has two main objectives. Initially, the emphasis is on treatment of patients with acute damage to the central nervous system whether through infection, trauma, or hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke. Thereafter, attention shifts to the identification of secondary processes that may lead to further brain injury, including fever, seizures, and ischemia, among others. Multimodal monitoring is the concept of using various tools and data integration to understand brain physiology and guide therapeutic interventions to prevent secondary brain injury. This chapter will review the use of electroencephalography, intracranial pressure monitoring, brain tissue oxygenation, cerebral microdialysis and neurochemistry, near-infrared spectroscopy, and transcranial Doppler sonography as they relate to neuromonitoring in the critically ill. The concepts and design of each monitor, in addition to the patient population that may most benefit from each modality, will be discussed, along with the various tools that can be used together to guide individualized patient treatment options. Major clinical trials, observational studies, and their effect on clinical outcomes will be reviewed. The future of multimodal monitoring in the field of bioinformatics, clinical research, and device development will conclude the chapter.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Maintenance of adequate blood flow and oxygen to the brain is one of the principal endpoints of all surgery and anesthesia. During operations in general anesthesia, however, the brain is at particular risk for silent ischemia. Despite this risk, the brain still remains one of the last monitored organs in clincial anesthesiology. RECENT FINDINGS Transcranial Doppler (TCD) sonography and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) experience a revival as these noninvasive technologies help to detect silent cerebral ischemia. TCD allows for quantification of blood flow velocities in basal intracranial arteries. TCD-derived variables such as the pulsatility index might hint toward diminished cognitive reserve or raised intracranial pressure. NIRS allows for assessment of regional cerebral oxygenation. Monitoring should be performed during high-risk surgery for silent cerebral ischemia and special circumstances during critical care medicine. Both techniques allow for the assessment of cerebrovascular autoregulation and individualized management of cerebral hemodynamics. SUMMARY TCD and NIRS are noninvasive monitors that anesthesiologists apply to tailor cerebral oxygen delivery, aiming to safeguard brain function in the perioperative period.

Abstract
A mechanically switchable solid inhomogeneous phantom simulating localized absorption changes was developed and characterized. The homogeneous host phantom was made of epoxy resin with black toner and titanium dioxide particles added as absorbing and scattering components, respectively. A cylindrical rod, movable along a hole in the block and made of the same material, has a black polyvinyl chloride cylinder embedded in its center. By varying the volume and position of the black inclusion, absorption perturbations can be generated over a large range of magnitudes. The phantom has been characterized by various time-domain diffuse optics instruments in terms of absorption and scattering spectra, transmittance images, and reflectance contrast. Addressing a major application of the phantom for performance characterization for functional near-infrared spectroscopy of the brain, the contrast was measured in reflectance mode while black cylinders of volumes from ≈20 mm3 to ≈270 mm3 were moved in lateral and depth directions, respectively. The new type of solid inhomogeneous phantom is expected to become a useful tool for routine quality check of clinical instruments or implementation of industrial standards provided an experimental characterization of the phantom is performed in advance.

Abstract
Maintenance of adequate oxygenation is a mainstay of intensive care, however, recommendations on the safety, accuracy, and the potential clinical utility of invasive and non-invasive tools to monitor brain and systemic oxygenation in neurocritical care are lacking. A literature search was conducted for English language articles describing bedside brain and systemic oxygen monitoring in neurocritical care patients from 1980 to August 2013. Imaging techniques e.g., PET are not considered. A total of 281 studies were included, the majority described patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). All tools for oxygen monitoring are safe. Parenchymal brain oxygen (PbtO2) monitoring is accurate to detect brain hypoxia, and it is recommended to titrate individual targets of cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP), ventilator parameters (PaCO2, PaO2), and transfusion, and to manage intracranial hypertension, in combination with ICP monitoring. SjvO2 is less accurate than PbtO2. Given limited data, NIRS is not recommended at present for adult patients who require neurocritical care. Systemic monitoring of oxygen (PaO2, SaO2, SpO2) and CO2 (PaCO2, end-tidal CO2) is recommended in patients who require neurocritical care.

Abstract
Neuromonitoring aims to detect harmful physiologic events, early enough to guide the treatment instituted. Evidences encourage us to implement multimodal monitoring, as no single monitor is capable of providing a complete picture of dynamic cerebral state. This review highlights the role of intracranial pressure monitoring, cerebral oxygenation (jugular venous oximetry, brain tissue oxygenation, near infrared oximetry, cerebral microdialysis) and cerebral blood flow monitoring (direct and indirect methods) in the management of neurologically injured patients. In this context, the recent developments of these monitors along with the relevant clinical implications have been discussed. Nevertheless, the diverse range of data obtained from these monitors needs to be integrated and simplified for the clinician. Hence, the future research should focus on identification of a most useful monitor for integration into multimodal system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traumatic brain injury is a major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. It can be worsened by secondary injury particularly with hypoxia or hypotension. Current prehospital guidelines emphasise regular measurement of peripheral oxygen saturation and blood pressure but there is no monitor in use to provide direct information relating to blood flow or oxygen delivery to the brain tissue. This prospective cohort study will assess the utility of near-infrared spectroscopy monitoring in prehospital medicine in demonstrating injury, pathophysiology and associations with long-term functional outcomes. METHODS/DESIGN A prospective cohort study will be conducted in prehospital services where physician/paramedic teams respond rapidly to patients suffering significant traumatic injuries. A study observer accompanying the clinical team will apply non-invasive near-infrared spectroscopy tissue oximetry using a Nonin EQUANOX 7610 Regional Oximetry monitor (TM Nonin Medical, Inc.). This will be applied to patients with traumatic injuries less than 30 minutes old requiring transport. Measurements will be taken at two sites on the forehead and one on the forearm. Clinical teams will be blinded to all monitoring values. Near-infrared spectroscopy tissue oximetry parameters of oxyhaemoglobin%, deoxyhaemoglobin%, total tissue haemoglobin index and regional oxygen saturation will be recorded. Separate statistical analysis relating to time spent with cerebral regional oxygen saturation values < 45% and time series analysis will be performed to demonstrate associations with acute phase outcomes including injuries seen on cerebral imaging, and long-term functional outcomes measured by Glasgow Outcome Score and Extended Glasgow Outcome Score will then be undertaken. DISCUSSION This prospective cohort study will demonstrate associations evident from the earliest stages of prehospital treatment between near-infrared spectroscopy tissue oximetry values and both acute and long-term outcomes of patients suffering traumatic injuries. This may provide the basis for future interventional studies utilising near-infrared spectroscopy tissue oximetry to guide prehospital trauma care. TRIAL REGISTRATION This trial is registered with the Australian and New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry. The registration number is ACTRN12611001124921 .

Abstract
We report on oxygenation changes noninvasively recorded by multichannel continuous-wave near infrared spectroscopy (CW-NIRS) during endovascular neuroradiologic interventions requiring temporary balloon occlusion of arteries supplying the cerebral circulation. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) provides reference data on the site, timing, and effectiveness of the flow stagnation as well as on the amount and direction of collateral circulation. This setting allows us to relate CW-NIRS findings to brain specific perfusion changes. We focused our analysis on the transition from normal perfusion to vessel occlusion, i.e., before hypoxia becomes clinically apparent. The localization of the maximal response correlated either with the core (occlusion of the middle cerebral artery) or with the watershed areas (occlusion of the internal carotid artery) of the respective vascular territories. In one patient with clinically and angiographically confirmed insufficient collateral flow during carotid artery occlusion, the total hemoglobin concentration became significantly asymmetric, with decreased values in the ipsilateral watershed area and contralaterally increased values. Multichannel CW-NIRS monitoring might serve as an objective and early predictive marker of critical perfusion changes during interventions-to prevent hypoxic damage of the brain. It also might provide valuable human reference data on oxygenation changes as they typically occur during acute stroke.

Abstract
Measurement of intracranial pressure (ICP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) is used to derive cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) and to guide targeted therapy of acute brain injury (ABI) during neurointensive care. Here we provide a narrative review of the evidence for ICP monitoring, CPP estimation, and ICP/CPP-guided therapy after ABI. Despite its widespread use, there is currently no class I evidence that ICP/CPP-guided therapy for any cerebral pathology improves outcomes; indeed some evidence suggests that it makes no difference, and some that it may worsen outcomes. Similarly, no class I evidence can currently advise the ideal CPP for any form of ABI. 'Optimal' CPP is likely patient-, time-, and pathology-specific. Further, CPP estimation requires correct referencing (at the level of the foramen of Monro as opposed to the level of the heart) for MAP measurement to avoid CPP over-estimation and adverse patient outcomes. Evidence is emerging for the role of other monitors of cerebral well-being that enable the clinician to employ an individualized multimodality monitoring approach in patients with ABI, and these are briefly reviewed. While acknowledging difficulties in conducting robust prospective randomized studies in this area, such high-quality evidence for the utility of ICP/CPP-directed therapy in ABI is urgently required. So, too, is the wider adoption of multimodality neuromonitoring to guide optimal management of ICP and CPP, and a greater understanding of the underlying pathophysiology of the different forms of ABI and what exactly the different monitoring tools used actually represent.

Abstract
Endoscopic procedures performed in the United States routinely involve the use of conscious sedation as standard of care. The use of sedation reduces patient discomfort and anxiety while improving the technical quality of the procedure, and as a result, over 98% of clinicians have adopted the practice. The tremendous benefits of sedation are offset by heightened costs, increased patient discharge time, and cardiopulmonary complication risks. The inherent liabilities of putting patients under sedation have necessitated a large number of physiological monitoring systems in order to ensure patient comfort and safety. Currently American Society of Anesthesiologist (ASA) guidelines recommend monitoring of pulse oximetry, blood pressure, heart rate, and end-tidal CO2; although important safeguards, these physiological measurements do not allow for the reliable assessment of patient sedation. Proper monitoring of patient state ensures procedure quality and patient safety; however no "gold-standard" is available to determine the depth of sedation which is comparable to the anesthesiologist's professional judgment. Developments in functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) over the past two decades have introduced cost-effective, portable, and non-invasive neuroimaging tools which measure cortical hemodynamic activity as a correlate of neural functions. Anesthetic drugs, such as propofol, operate by suppressing cerebral metabolism. fNIRS imaging methods have the ability to detect these drug related effects as well as neuronal activity through the measurement of local cerebral hemodynamic changes. In the present study, 41 patients were continuously monitored using fNIRS while undergoing outpatient elective colonoscopy with propofol sedation. The preliminary results indicated that oxygenated hemoglobin changes in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, as assessed by fNIRS were correlated with changes in response to bolus infusions of propofol, whereas other standard physiological measures were not significantly associated.

Abstract
Objective. The aim of our prospective study was to investigate the applicability and the diagnostic value of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in SAH patients using the cerebral oximeter INVOS 5100C. Methods. Measurement of cerebral oximetry was done continuously after spontaneous SAH. Decrease of regional oxygen saturation (rSO2) was analyzed and interpreted in view of the determined intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Changes of rSO2 values were matched with the values of ICP, tipO2, and TCD and the results of additional neuroimaging. Results. Continuous measurement of rSO2 was performed in nine patients with SAH (7 females and 2 males). Mean measurement time was 8.6 days (range 2–12 days). The clinical course was uneventful in 7 patients without occurrence of CVS. In these patients, NIRS measured constant and stable rSO2 values without relevant alterations. Special findings are demonstrated in 3 cases. Conclusion. Measurement of rSO2 with NIRS is a safe, easy to use, noninvasive additional measurement tool for cerebral oxygenation, which is used routinely during vascular and cardiac surgical procedures. NIRS is applicable over a long time period after SAH, especially in alert patients without invasive probes. Our observations were promising, whereby larger studies are needed to answer the open questions.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has potential as a noninvasive brain monitor across a spectrum of disorders. In the last decade, there has been a rapid expansion of clinical experience using NIRS to monitor cerebral oxygenation, and there is some evidence that NIRS-guided brain protection protocols might lead to a reduction in perioperative neurologic complications after cardiac surgery. However, there are no data to support the wider application of NIRS during routine surgery under general anesthesia, and its application in brain injury, where it might be expected to have a key monitoring role, is undefined. Although increasingly sophisticated apparatuses, including broadband and time-resolved spectroscopy systems, provide insights into the potential of NIRS to measure regional cerebral oxygenation, hemodynamics, and metabolism in real-time, these innovations have yet to translate into effective monitor-guided brain protection treatment strategies. NIRS has many potential advantages over other neuromonitoring techniques, but further investigation and technological advances are necessary before it can be introduced more widely into clinical practice.

Abstract
Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) can noninvasively measure cerebral saturation in oxygen, that permits to estimate brain oxygenation and metabolism. This technique could be incorporated into a multimodal monitoring for severely brain-injured patients. This review presents the principles of NIRS, its limits, the main results from clinical studies and its perspectives. More clinical studies are needed before recommending the routine use of NIRS in the ICU.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant cause of death and severe disability from trauma. Pre-hospital care of patients with TBI may be aided by non-invasive monitoring of cerebral tissue oxygenation. This pilot observational study was designed to assess if cerebral tissue oximetry using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is feasible in the pre-hospital and transport environment. METHODS After ethics committee review, we undertook a feasibility trial in healthy volunteers, transported by road ambulance or helicopter, to assess if monitoring signals could be obtained in the outside environment and during patient transport. RESULTS A total of 33 road ambulance transports and 32 helicopter transports were undertaken. For monitoring commenced outdoors, 33 of 66 probes applied (50%) provided adequate monitoring signal. For road transports, 33 out of 33 transports (100%) resulted in successful bilateral monitoring for more than 70% of the sampling period. For helicopter transports, four transports were cut short by battery failure during the mission and 24 of 28 transports (85.7%) resulted in successful bilateral monitoring for more than 70% of the sampling period. While patient and transport platform movement did not impact on monitoring signals, exposure to ambient light provided a challenge in obtaining monitoring signals that is nevertheless manageable with increased probe shielding. CONCLUSIONS NIRS monitoring is feasible in the pre-hospital environment, opening up the possibility for further research of the role of this modality in this setting.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has potential as a non-invasive brain monitor in a wide range of clinical scenarios. In the last decade, there has been a rapid expansion of clinical experience using NIRS to monitor cerebral oxygenation, particularly in cardiac surgery, where there is some evidence that NIRS-guided brain protection protocols might lead to a reduction in peri-operative neurological complications. There are no data to support the wider application of NIRS to monitor cerebral oxygenation during routine anaesthesia and surgery, and its application in brain injury, where it might be expected to have a key monitoring role, is as yet undefined. Technological developments, including the introduction of broadband and time-resolved spectrometers that are capable of reliably measuring changes in oxidized cytochrome c oxidase, offer real potential for a single NIRS-based device to provide multi-site, regional monitoring of cerebral metabolic status as well as oxygenation and haemodynamics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Both the Trendelenburg position and pneumoperitoneum with carbon dioxide have been reported to increase intracranial pressure (ICP) and to alter cerebral blood flow or cerebral blood volume. Also anesthetic agents have variable effects on cerebral hemodynamics and ICP. The present study was conducted to determine whether regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO(2)) values differ between propofol and sevoflurane anesthesia during laparoscopic surgery in the Trendelenburg position. METHODS Thirty-two adult women undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery were divided into sevoflurane and propofol groups. rSO(2) values were recorded at 10 min after induction in the neutral position (Tpre), 10 min after the pneumoperitoneum in the Trendelenburg position (Tpt) and 10 min after desufflation in the neutral position (Tpost). For analysis of rSO(2), we did ANOVA and univariate two-way ANCOVA with covariates being mean arterial pressure and end tidal carbon dioxide tension. RESULTS Between sevoflurane and propofol groups, the change in rSO(2) was significantly different even after ANCOVA. rSO(2) at Tpt (76.3 ± 5.9% in sevoflurane vs 69.4 ± 5.8% in propofol) and Tpost (69.5 ± 7.1% in sevoflurane vs 63.8 ± 6.6% in propofol) were significantly higher in the sevoflurane group compared with the propofol group. In the propofol group, rSO(2) at Tpost was significantly lower than at Tpre (71.1 ± 4.8%) and cerebral oxygen desaturation occurred in two patients (14.3%). CONCLUSIONS Significantly lower rSO(2) values were observed in the propofol group during gynecological laparoscopic surgery. The possibility of cerebral oxygen desaturation should not be overlooked during propofol anesthesia even after desufflation of the abdomen in the neutral position.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND:
Accidental vessel occlusion is one major risk of intracranial aneurysm surgery potentially causing cerebral ischemia. The intraoperative assessment of cerebral ischemia remains a technological challenge.
OBJECTIVE:
As a novel approach, cortical tissue integrity was monitored using simultaneous measurements of regional capillary-venous cerebral blood flow (rvCBF), oxygen saturation (Srvo2), and hemoglobin amount (rvHb) during aneurysm surgery.
METHODS:
Fifteen patients scheduled for aneurysm surgery of the anterior and posterior circulation were included. A fiber optic probe was placed on the cortex associated with the distal branch of the aneurysmatic vessel. Blinded measurements by combined laser-Doppler flowmetry (rvCBF) and photospectrometry (Srvo2, rvHb) were performed before and after surgical clipping or trapping of the aneurysm. Data were correlated with postoperative imaging and neurological outcome.
RESULTS:
Cortical measurements could be successfully performed in all patients. Significant increase (>25% change from baseline) or decrease (<25% change from baseline) of rvCBF, Srvo2, and rvHb was detectable in 33 to 46% of patients after surgical intervention. Severe decrease (>50% change from baseline) of all parameters or solitary of rvCBF was correlated to reduced cerebral perfusion and neurological deficits in 2 patients.
CONCLUSION:
Combined laser-Doppler flowmetry and photospectrometry provides real-time information on cortical microcirculation. Intraoperative alterations of parameters (rvCBF, Srvo2, rvHb) might reflect changes of cerebral tissue integrity during intracranial aneurysm surgery.

Abstract
Background: Having previously demonstrated in a prospective study of 200 coronary artery bypass (CAB) patients that by using the brain as an index organ, interventions to improve cerebral oxygenation would have systemic outcome benefits, we undertook a post hoc analysis of the diabetic subset (n = 57) of the overall study group to determine whether the outcomes of these patients were similarly improved.Methods: Case-report forms for the 200 CAB patients study patients with a preoperative diagnosis of diabetes mellitus were stratified to intraoperative cerebral regional oxygen saturation (rSO2) monitoring with active display and a treatment intervention protocol (intervention group, n = 28) or to blinded rSO2 monitoring (control group, n = 29) and analyzed.Results: There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in overall risk factors, although there were trends toward a higher body mass index, a worse angina score, a worse grade of ventricle, and greater use of off-pump coronary revascularization in the control group of patients. The 2 groups were similar with respect to overall insulin dosage and perioperative blood glucose concentrations. Significantly more diabetic patients in the control group demonstrated profound cerebral desaturation, with an area under the curve of 2 postoperative complications (P = .006; = 0.37). An analysis after removing the patients who underwent off-pump surgery revealed that the control group had significantly more patients with sternal wound infections (5 versus 0; P = .047) and 2 postoperative complications (6 versus 0; P = .008) than the intervention group, as well as a trend toward longer ICU and postoperative hospitalization stays in the control group.Conclusion: Monitoring and management of cerebral rSO2 in diabetic CAB patients avoid profound cerebral desaturation and are associated with significantly lower incidences of complications and shorter postoperative lengths of stay.Implication Statement: A post hoc analysis of the diabetic cohort of a prospective, randomized, and blinded study of CAB patients revealed that those in whom cerebral oxygen saturation was actively monitored and maintained demonstrated significantly lower incidences of complications, resulting in shorter ICU and postoperative hospital stays compared with an unmonitored control group.

Abstract
Continuous real-time monitoring of the adequacy of cerebral perfusion can provide important therapeutic information in a variety of clinical settings. The current clinical availability of several non-invasive near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-based cerebral oximetry devices represents a potentially important development for the detection of cerebral ischaemia. In addition, a number of preliminary studies have reported on the application of cerebral oximetry sensors to other tissue beds including splanchnic, renal, and spinal cord. This review provides a synopsis of the mode of operation, current limitations and confounders, clinical applications, and potential future uses of such NIRS devices.
