Clin Res Cardiol 2024:10.1007/s00392-024-02493-4. [PMID: 39012507 DOI: 10.1007/s00392-024-02493-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2024] [Accepted: 07/04/2024] [Indexed: 07/17/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients undergoing ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation often present with structural heart disease (SHD) and reduced ejection fraction. Inducing VT by programmed electrical stimulation (PES) puts these patients at risk for hemodynamic instability and cerebral hypoperfusion. OBJECTIVE The present study screens for cerebral oxygen desaturation phases (ODPs) in patients undergoing VT ablation. METHODS Forty-seven patients (age 61 ± 14 years, 72% males) underwent ablation of sustained VT with simultaneous neuromonitoring using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). RESULTS Analysis of NIRS signal identified ODPs in 29 patients (62%). ODPs were associated with a higher prevalence of ischemic heart disease (IHD) (45% vs. 11%, p = 0.024), previous VT episodes (n = 16 vs. 4, p = 0.018), and VTs inducible by PES (n = 2.4 vs. 1.2, p = 0.004). Patients with ODPs were more likely to be admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) (78% vs. 33%, p = 0.005) and had more in-hospital VT recurrences (24% vs. 0%, p = 0.034). No differences were observed in VT recurrence rates after hospital discharge (41.4% vs. 44.4%, p = 0.60) and left ventricular ejection fraction (34% vs. 38%, p = 0.567). IHD (OR: 32.837, p = 0.006), ICU admission (OR: 14.112, p = 0.013), and the number of VTs inducible at PES (OR: 2.705, p = 0.015) were independently associated with ODPs. CONCLUSIONS This study registers episodes of cerebral hypoperfusion in 62% of patients undergoing VT ablation and identifies IHD and the number of VTs inducible at PES as possible risk factors for these episodes.

Clin Interv Aging 2024; 19:1067-1078. [PMID: 38911674 PMCID: PMC11192837 DOI: 10.2147/cia.s462471] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 06/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a neurological complication associated with surgery and anesthesia that is commonly observed in older patients, and it can significantly affect patient prognosis and survival. Therefore, predicting and preventing POCD is important. Regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) reflects cerebral perfusion and oxygenation, and decreased intraoperative cerebral oxygen saturation has been reported to increase the risk of POCD. In this review, we elucidated the important relationship between the decline in rSO2 and risk of POCD in older patients. We also emphasized the importance of monitoring rSO2 during surgery to predict and prevent adverse perioperative cognitive outcomes. The findings reveal that incorporating intraoperative rSO2 monitoring into clinical practice has potential benefits, such as protecting cognitive function, reducing perioperative adverse outcomes, and ultimately improving the overall quality of life of older adults.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This exploratory analysis of the randomized controlled Aortic Surgery Cerebral Protection Evaluation CardioLink-3 trial sought to determine if cerebral oximetry desaturation during elective proximal arch repair is associated with detrimental postoperative neuroradiologic and neurofunctional outcomes. METHODS Cerebral oximetry and pre- and postoperative brain magnetic resonance imaging data from 101 participants were analyzed. Oximetry data from the trial allocation groups were compared; the relationships between cerebral oximetry indices and new ischemic cerebral lesions on magnetic resonance imaging and neurologic outcomes were also evaluated. RESULTS Total cerebral desaturation events (>20% decrease from baseline) on the left (median [interquartile range], 1 [1-3] vs 1.5 [0.5-3] with innominate and axillary cannulation; P = .80) were comparable to those on the right (1 [1-3] vs 1 [0-3]; P = .75) as were the total area under the curve of desaturation (left, P = .61; right, P = .84). Seventy patients had new ischemic lesions, among whom 36 had new severe lesions. Total desaturation events and area under the curve of desaturation were similar in patients with and without new ischemic lesions or severe lesions. The nadir regional cerebral saturation was lower on the left (49% [41-56]) than the right (53% [44-59]); left desaturation episodes were associated with lower postoperative cognitive test scores (P = .004). CONCLUSIONS The innominate and axillary cannulation techniques for elective proximal arch repair with unilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion were associated with similar occurrences of cerebral oximetry desaturation and neither were associated with new ischemic lesions.

Factors Associated with Early Mortality in Acute Type A Aortic Dissection-A Single-Centre Experience. J Clin Med 2024; 13:1023. [PMID: 38398336 PMCID: PMC10889250 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13041023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2024] [Revised: 01/31/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute aortic dissection type A (AADA) is a surgical emergency with relevant mortality and morbidity despite improvements in current management protocols. Identifying patients at risk of a fatal outcome and controlling the factors associated with mortality remain of paramount importance. METHODS In this retrospective observational study, we reviewed the medical records of 117 patients with AADA, who were referred to our centre and operated on between 2005 and 2021. Preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative variables were analysed and tested for their correlation with in-hospital mortality. RESULTS The overall survival rate was 83%. Preoperatively, factors associated with mortality were age (p = 0.02), chronic hypertension (p = 0.02), any grade of aortic valve stenosis in the patient's medical history (p = 0.03), atrial fibrillation (p = 0.04), and oral anticoagulation (p = 0.04). Non-survivors had significantly longer operative times (p = 0.002). During the postoperative phase, mortality was strongly associated with acute kidney injury (AKI) (p < 0.001), acute heart failure (p < 0.001), stroke (p = 0.02), focal neurological deficits (p = 0.02), and sepsis (p = 0.001). In the multivariate regression analysis, the onset of postoperative focal neurological deficits was the best predictor of a fatal outcome after adjusting for ARDS (odds ratio: 5.8, 95%-CI: 1.2-41.7, p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS In this retrospective analysis, atrial fibrillation, oral anticoagulation, hypertension, and age were significantly correlated with mortality. Postoperatively, acute kidney injury, acute heart failure, sepsis, and focal neurological deficits were correlated with in-hospital mortality, and focal neurological deficit has been identified as a significant predictor of fatal outcomes. Early detection and interdisciplinary management of at-risk patients remain crucial throughout the postoperative phase.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Postoperative delirium (POD) is common, costly and associated with long-term morbidity and increased mortality. We conducted a cohort study to assess the contribution of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to the development of POD by means of algorithm-based data processing. METHODS A database was compiled from 3 datasets of patients who underwent cardiac surgery between 2014 and 2019: intensive care unit discharge files, CPB protocols and medical quality management records. Following data extraction and structuring using novel algorithms, missing data were imputed. Ten independent imputations were analysed by multiple logistic regression with stepwise deletion of factors to arrive at a minimal adequate model. RESULTS POD was diagnosed in 456/3163 patients (14.4%). In addition to known demographic risk factors and comorbidities like male sex, age, carotid disease, acute kidney failure and diabetes mellitus, cardiopulmonary parameters like total blood volume at the CPB [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) 1.001; confidence interval (CI) 1.1001-1.002] were independent predictors of POD. Higher values of the minimal blood flow were associated with a lower risk of POD (AOR 0.993; CI 0.988-0.997). Flow rates at least 30% above target did emerge in the minimal adequate model as a potential risk factor, but the confidence interval suggested a lack of statistical significance (AOR 1.819; 95% CI: 0.955-3.463). CONCLUSIONS CPB data processing proved to be a useful tool for obtaining compact information to better identify the roles of individual operational states. Strict adherence to perfusion limits along with tighter control of blood flow and acid-base balance during CPB may help to further decrease the risk of POD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Impairment of cerebral autoregulation (CA) has been observed in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), but little is known about its risks and associations with outcomes. The cerebral oximetry index (COx), which is a moving linear correlation coefficient between regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) and mean blood pressure (MAP), may reflect CA function. When COx approaches 1, it implies that CA is damaged, whereas the CA is functional when the COx value approaches 0. The objective of this study was to analyze the incidence and risks of impaired CA, based on COx assessment, in patients undergoing total aortic arch replacement under systemic moderate hypothermia and circulatory arrest of the lower body (MHCA). We also evaluated the association between impaired CA and patient outcomes. METHODS One hundred and fifty-four adult patients who underwent total aortic arch replacement with stented elephant trunk implantation under MHCA at our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were defined as having new-onset impaired CA if pre-CPB COx < 0.3 and post-CPB COx > 0.3. Pre- and intraoperative factors were tested for independent association with impaired CA. Postoperative outcomes were compared between patients with normal and impaired CA. RESULTS In our 154 patients, 46(29.9%) developed new-onset impaired CA after CPB. Multivariable analysis revealed a prolonged low rScO2 (rScO2 < 55%) independently associated with onset of impaired CA, and receiver operating charactoristic curve showed a cutoff value at 40 min (sensitivity, 89.5%; specificity, 68.0%). Compared with normal CA patients, those with impaired CA showed a significantly higher rates of in-hospital mortality and postoperative complications. CONCLUSIONS Prolonged low rScO2 (rScO2 < 55%) during aortic arch surgery was closely related to onset of impaired CA. Impaired CA remained associated with the increased rates of postoperative complications and in-hospital mortality. TRIAL REGISTRATION ChiCTR1800014545 with registered date 20/01/2018.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Perioperative brain protection in older patients has been the focus of research recently; meanwhile, exploring the relationship between regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) and brain function in the perioperative period has been an emerging and challenging area-the difficulties related to the real-time monitoring of rSO2 and the choice of feasible interventions. As an advanced instrument for intraoperative rSO2 monitoring, the clinical application of near-infrared spectrum (NIRS) cerebral oxygen monitoring has gradually increased in popularity and is being recognized for its beneficial clinical outcomes in patients undergoing cardiac and noncardiac surgery. In addition, although sufficient evidence to support this hypothesis is still lacking, the effect of permissive hypercapnia (PHC) on rSO2 has expanded from basic research to clinical exploration. Therefore, monitoring intraoperative rSO2 in older patients with NIRS technology and exploring possible interventions that may change rSO2 and even improve postoperative cognitive performance is significant and clinically valuable. METHODS This study is a single-center randomized controlled trial (RCT). 76 older patients are enrolled as subjects. Patients who meet the screening criteria will be randomly assigned 1:1 to the control and intervention groups. PHC-based mechanical ventilation will be regarded as an intervention. The primary outcome is the absolute change in the percent change in rSO2 from baseline to the completion of surgery in the intervention and control groups. Secondary outcomes mainly include observations of intraoperative cerebral oxygenation and metabolism, markers of brain injury, and assessments of patients' cognitive function using scale through postoperative follow-up. DISCUSSION The findings of this RCT will reveal the effect of PHC on intraoperative rSO2 in older patients with nonacute fragile brain function (NFBF) and the approximate trends over time, and differences in postoperative cognitive function outcomes. We anticipate that the trial results will inform clinical policy decision-makers in clinical practice, enhance the management of intraoperative cerebral oxygen monitoring in older patients with comorbid NFBF, and provide guidance for clinical brain protection and improved postoperative cognitive function outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Caudal injections commonly used for neuraxial anaesthesia in children can displace cerebrospinal fluid cranially causing safety concerns in terms of raised intracranial pressure. Optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) is a noninvasive surrogate for the measurement of intracranial pressure. Regional cerebral oximetry (CrSO 2 ) can monitor brain oxygenation, which may decrease by a reduction in cerebral flow due to increased intracranial pressure. OBJECTIVES Comparing how caudal injection volumes of 0.8 and 1.25 ml kg -1 influence ONSD and CrSO 2 within the first 30 min after injection. DESIGN Prospective, randomised and parallel group trial. SETTING Operating room. PATIENTS Fifty-eight elective paediatric surgical patients between ages 1 and 7 years old, ASA class I or II, without previous intracranial or ocular pathology and surgery appropriate for single - shot caudal anaesthesia. INTERVENTION Single-shot caudal anaesthesia with 0.8 ml kg -1 (group L, n = 29) and 1.25 ml kg -1 (group H, n = 29) of 2 mg kg -1 bupivacaine solution. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Optic nerve sheath diameter measured with ultrasonography and regional cerebral oximetry measured by near - infrared spectroscopy before (NIRS), immediately after, 10, 20 and 30 min after the block. RESULTS Mean ONSD values increased from a baseline of 4.4 ± 0.2 mm to a maximum of 4.5 ± 0.2 mm 20 min after injection in group L and from a baseline of 4.5 ± 0.3 mm to a maximum of 4.8 ± 0.3 mm 10 min after injection in group H. Eight of 29 patients in group H and none in group L had an ONSD increase by more than 10%. Both groups had a reduction of less than 2.5% in CrSO 2 . CONCLUSION Caudal injection with 1.25 ml kg -1 increased ONSD, an indirect measurement of ICP, more than 0.8 ml kg -1 and neither volume caused a clinically important reduction in CrSO 2 .

Abstract
Complex ascending and aortic arch surgery requires the implementation of different cerebral protection strategies to avoid or limit the probability of intraoperative brain damage during circulatory arrest. The etiology of the damage is multifactorial, involving cerebral embolism, hypoperfusion, hypoxia and inflammatory response. These protective strategies include the use of deep or moderate hypothermia to reduce the cerebral oxygen consumption, allowing the toleration of a variable period of absence of cerebral blood flow, and the use of different cerebral perfusion techniques, both anterograde and retrograde, on top of hypothermia, to avoid any period of intraoperative brain ischemia. In this narrative review, the pathophysiology of cerebral damage during aortic surgery is described. The different options for brain protection, including hypothermia, anterograde or retrograde cerebral perfusion, are also analyzed, with a critical review of the advantages and limitations under a technical point of view. Finally, the current systems of intraoperative brain monitoring are also discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stroke is a feared complication after cardiothoracic surgery, with an incidence of around 2 to 3%. Anaesthesia and postoperative sedation may obscure clinical symptoms of stroke and thus delay diagnosis and timely intervention. OBJECTIVES The objective was to assess the value of intra-operative neuromonitoring and blood pressure monitoring for predicting the occurrence of peri-operative stroke within 3 days after cardiothoracic surgery. DESIGN Single-centre retrospective observational cohort study. SETTING Academic tertiary care medical centre. PATIENTS All consecutive patients with cardiothoracic surgery and intra-operative neuromonitoring admitted postoperatively to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) between 2008 and 2017. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary endpoint was the occurrence of any stroke confirmed by brain imaging within 3 days postcardiothoracic surgery. Areas under the curve (AUC) of intra-operative mean arterial pressure (MAP), cerebral oxygen saturation (ScO2) and bispectral index (BIS) below predefined thresholds were calculated, and the association with early stroke was tested using logistic regression analyses. RESULTS A total of 2454 patients admitted to the ICU after cardiothoracic surgery had complete intra-operative data for ScO2, BIS and MAP and were included in the analysis. In 58 patients (2.4%), a stroke was confirmed. In univariate analysis, a larger AUCMAP greater than 60 mmHg [odds ratio (OR) 1.43; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.21 to 1.68) and larger AUCBIS<25 (OR 1.51; 95% CI, 1.24 to 1.83) were associated with the occurrence of postoperative stroke while ScO2 less than 50% or greater than 20% reduction from individual baseline was not (OR 0.91; 95% CI, 0.50 to 1.67). After multivariable analysis, AUCBIS<25 (OR 1.45; 95% CI, 1.12 to 1.87) and longer duration of MAP less than 60 mmHg (OR 1.52; 95% CI, 1.02 to 2.27) remained independently associated with stroke occurrence. CONCLUSION Cumulative intra-operative BIS values below 25 and longer duration of MAP below 60 mmHg were associated with the occurrence of peri-operative stroke within 3 days after cardiothoracic surgery. Prospective studies are warranted to evaluate a causal relationship between low BIS and stroke to establish whether avoiding intra-operative BIS values below 25 might reduce the incidence of peri-operative stroke.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Detection of neurological complications during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) may be enhanced with non-invasive neuro-monitoring. We investigated the feasibility of non-invasive neuro-monitoring in a paediatric intensive care (PIC) setting. METHODS In a single centre, prospective cohort study we assessed feasibility of recruitment, and neuro-monitoring via somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP), electroencephalography (EEG) and near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) during venoarterial (VA) ECMO in paediatric patients (0-15 years). Measures were obtained within 24h of cannulation, during an intermediate period, and finally at decannulation or echo stress testing. SSEP/EEG/NIRS measures were correlated with neuro-radiology findings, and clinical outcome assessed via the Pediatric cerebral performance category (PCPC) scale 30 days post ECMO cannulation. RESULTS We recruited 14/20 (70%) eligible patients (median age: 9 months; IQR:4-54, 57% male) over an 18-month period, resulting in a total of 42 possible SSEP/EEG/NIRS measurements. Of these, 32/42 (76%) were completed. Missed recordings were due to lack of access/consent within 24 h of cannulation (5/42, 12%) or PIC death/discharge (5/42, 12%). In each patient, the majority of SSEP (8/14, 57%), EEG (8/14, 57%) and NIRS (11/14, 79%) test results were within normal limits. All patients with abnormal neuroradiology (4/10, 40%), and 6/7 (86%) with poor outcome (PCPC ≥4) developed indirect SSEP, EEG or NIRS measures of neurological complications prior to decannulation. No study-related adverse events or neuro-monitoring data interpreting issues were experienced. CONCLUSION Non-invasive neuro-monitoring (SSEP/EEG/NIRS) during ECMO is feasible and may provide early indication of neurological complications in this high-risk population.

Abstract
The aim of systematic review and meta-analysis was to investigate whether APOE4 was associated with postoperative neurologic dysfunction occurrence in short- or medium-term among surgical patients and to study the potential genetic association among these two entities. We searched electronic databases for reserch studies to evaluate the association of APOE4 with postoperative delirium (POD) or short- and medium term postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). Twenty-two trials (16 prospective and six retrospective) with 6734 patients were included. APOE4 alleles was shown significantly associated with POCD within 1 week (odds ratio, OR, 1.89, 95% confidence interval, CI, 1.36 to 2.6278, p < 0.01) in the random-effects model. A significant association was also noted between APOE4 and POCD in medium-term, 1-3 months, after surgery (OR: 1.67, 95% CI: 1.003-2.839, p = 0.049). However, APOE4 was not significantly associated with POCD 1 year after surgery (OR: 0.98, 95% CI: 0.57-1.70, p = 0.9449) and POD (OR: 1.28, 95% CI: 0.85-1.91, p = 0.23). In conclusion, APOE4 alleles was genetically associated with short- and medium-term postoperative neurological dysfunction and future screening or preventive strategies derived is highly potential to improve outcomes.

Abstract
Despite significant advances in surgical technique and strategies for tissue/organ protection, cardiac surgery involving cardiopulmonary bypass is a profound stressor on the human body and is associated with numerous intraoperative and postoperative collateral effects across different tissues and organ systems. Of note, cardiopulmonary bypass has been shown to induce significant alterations in microvascular reactivity. This involves altered myogenic tone, altered microvascular responsiveness to many endogenous vasoactive agonists, and generalized endothelial dysfunction across multiple vascular beds. This review begins with a survey of in vitro studies that examine the cellular mechanisms of microvascular dysfunction following cardiac surgery involving cardiopulmonary bypass, with a focus on endothelial activation, weakened barrier integrity, altered cell surface receptor expression, and changes in the balance between vasoconstrictive and vasodilatory mediators. Microvascular dysfunction in turn influences postoperative organ dysfunction in complex, poorly understood ways. Hence the second part of this review will highlight in vivo studies examining the effects of cardiac surgery on critical organ systems, notably the heart, brain, renal system, and skin/peripheral tissue vasculature. Clinical implications and possible areas for intervention will be discussed throughout the review.

Abstract
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is used to achieve oxygenation and protect lung ventilation. Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) measures cerebral regional tissue oxygenation (rSO 2 ) and may contribute to patient safety during interhospital transport under ECMO support. We evaluated 16 adult ARDS patients undergoing interhospital ECMO transport by measuring cerebral rSO 2 before and after initiation of ECMO support and continuously during transport. To compare peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO 2 ) measurement with rSO 2 , both parameters were analyzed. NIRS monitoring for initiation of ECMO and interhospital transport under ECMO support was feasible, and there was no significant difference in the percentage of achievable valid measurements over time between cerebral rSO 2 (88.4% [95% confidence interval {CI}, 81.3-95.0%]) and standard SpO 2 monitoring 91.7% (95% CI, 86.1-94.2%), p = 0.68. No change in cerebral rSO 2 was observed before 77% (73.5-81%) (median [interquartile range {IQR}]) and after initiation of ECMO support 78% (75-81%), p = 0.2. NIRS for cerebral rSO 2 measurement is feasible during ECMO initiation and interhospital transport. Achievement of valid measurements of cerebral rSO 2 was not superior to SpO 2 . In distinct patients ( e.g. , shock), measurement of cerebral rSO 2 may contribute to improvement of patient safety during interhospital ECMO transport.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Perioperative stroke, delirium, and cognitive impairment could be related to management and to variations in blood pressure control, cerebral hypoperfusion and raised blood volume. Cerebral autoregulation (CAR) is a mechanism to maintain cerebral perfusion through the control of the vascular tone and hemodynamic reactions in the circulation. OBJECTIVE The present systematic review addresses the relationship between impaired CAR and perioperative stroke by evaluating the rate of neurological complications after surgery in studies in which perioperative CAR was tested or monitored. METHODS We included randomized clinical trials and prospective observational studies. All studies had adjusted the relative risk, hazard ratio or 95% confidence interval (95%CI) values. These estimation effects were tested using random-effects models. Heterogeneity among the selected studies was assessed using the Higgins and Thompson I2 statistics. RESULTS The Web of Science, PubMed and EMBASE electronic databases were searched to retrieve articles. A total of 4,476 studies published between 1983 and 2019 were analyzed, but only 5 qualified for the data extraction and were included in the final analysis. The combined study cohort comprised 941 patients who underwent CAR monitoring during surgical procedures. All studies provided information about perioperative stroke, which equated to 16% (158 of 941) of the overall patient population. CONCLUSION The present meta-analysis showed evidence of the impact of CAR impairment in the risk of perioperative stroke. On the pooled analysis, blood fluctuations or other brain insults large enough to compromise CAR were associated with the outcome of stroke (odds ratio [OR]: 2.26; 95%CI: 1.54-2.98; p < 0.0001).

Abstract
Background: There is insufficient evidence to recommend using either intraoperative cerebral oximetry or (processed) electroencephalogram (EEG) alone for preventing perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PNDs).
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of combined use of cerebral oximetry and electroencephalogram-guided anesthesia on the incidence of PNDs in adult patients undergoing cardiac and non-cardiac interventions.
Methods: A PICOS - based systematic review of English articles using Pubmed and Embase (from inception to August 2022) was performed. There were no exclusion criteria regarding the type of the study. Abstract proceedings and new study protocols or ongoing studies were not included. Review articles were analyzed in search of eligible references. All possible terms that were illustrative of PNDs were used.
Results: Among the 63 full manuscripts that were analyzed in detail, 15 met the inclusion criteria. We found 2 retrospective, 8 prospective observational and 5 randomized controlled trials of which 1 did not evaluate the use of neuromonitoring in the randomization process. The definition and the methods used to diagnose PNDs were very heterogeneous. Only 8 studies used an algorithm to avoid/treat cerebral oxygen desaturation and/or to treat EEG abnormalities. Overall, there was a tendency towards less PNDs in studies where such an algorithm was used.
Conclusions: Our results suggest that integrating information obtained from cerebral oximetry and an EEG monitor may reduce the incidence of PNDs whenever an adapted algorithm is used to improve brain function.

Abstract
Background The function and viability of the brain depend on adequate oxygen supply. A decrease in cerebral blood supply causing cerebral desaturation may lead to many neurological complications. Direct measurement of regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) assists in early detection and management. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been introduced for measuring rScO2. A pair of sensors are attached to the right and left forehead. However, there are some situations where the forehead of the patient is not accessible for sensor attachment (e.g., neurosurgery involving the frontal area; a bispectral index (BIS) sensor already attached, or a wound to the forehead); therefore, alternate sites for sensor attachment are required. The temporal area was proposed as an alternate site. The objective of this study was to assess the correlation and agreement of rScO2 measured at the forehead vs. the temporal area. Methods Adult patients undergoing cardiothoracic or vascular surgery were monitored for rScO2 using two pairs of ForeSight sensors. The first pair (A1 and A2) were attached to the right and left forehead, while the second pair (B1 and B2) were attached to the right and left temporal area. The rScO2 values measured from A1 vs. B1 and A2 vs. B2 were assessed for correlation and agreement using the Bland-Altman analysis. Results Data from 19 patients with 14,364 sets of data were analyzed. The data from A1 vs. B1 and A2 vs. B2 showed moderate positive correlation (r = 0.627; P < 0.0001 and r = 0.548; P < 0.0001). The biases of A1 vs. B1 and A2 vs. B2 were -2.3% (95% CI [-2.5 to -2.2]; P < 0.0001) and 0.7% (95% CI [0.6-0.8]; P < 0.0001). The lower and upper limits of agreement of A1 vs. B1 were -17.5% (95% CI [-17.7 to -17.3]) and 12.8% (95% CI [12.6-13.0]). The lower and upper limits of agreement of A2 vs. B2 were -14.6% (95% CI [-14.8 to -14.4]) and 16.0% (95% [CI 15.8-16.3]). Conclusions The rScO2 values measured from sensors at the frontal and temporal areas show a moderate correlation with sufficiently good agreement. The temporal area may be an alternative to the frontal area for cerebral oximetry monitoring.

Abstract
Cardiopulmonary bypass-associated acute kidney injury (CPB-AKI) is a pediatric cardiac surgery postoperative complication that is associated with a longer duration of mechanical ventilation and length of hospital stay. Identifying an early predictor of CPB-AKI is critical. Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), which can provide real-time monitoring of regional tissue oxygen saturation (rSO2) during CPB, may predict CPB-AKI in an early phase of surgical treatment. This study analyzed clinical data from 87 children who underwent an elective surgical repair of ventricular septal defect (VSD) from January 2013 to March 2019. NIRS sensors were placed on the patients' forehead, abdomen, and thighs. The pediatric modified risk, injury, failure, loss, and end-stage (p-RIFLE) score was determined for each patient postoperatively. The incidence of AKI based on the p-RIFLE classification was 11.5% at the end of surgery, 23.0% at 24 h after surgery, and 5.7% at 48 h after surgery. The AKI incidence rate was highest at 24 h after surgery. Multiple regression analysis revealed that femoral oxygenation (rSO2) during CPB, CPB time, oxygen delivery index (DO2i), and lactate at the end of CPB were independent risk factors for AKI. Receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that femoral oxygenation of 74% or less predicted AKI development within 24 h after surgery. In conclusion, rSO2 measured at the thigh during CPB is highly predictive of CPB-AKI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive approach that measures cerebral regional oxygen saturation (rScO2). In this study, we evaluated the evidence on the validity of NIRS and the interchangeability between NIRS and common invasive approaches by exploring the correlation and consistency and comparing the mean and standard deviation between the NIRS rScO2 and jugular bulb venous oxygen saturation (SjvO2) as well as central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) in the perioperative period of children with congenital heart disease (CHD). METHODS We searched electronic bibliographic databases (PubMed, The Cochrane Library and Embase) and screened the studies that met the inclusion criteria. We included cross-sectional studies of CHD pediatric patients in the perioperative period receiving both tests for NIRS rScO2 and SjvO2 or NIRS rScO2 and ScvO2. Methodological quality assessment and heterogeneity analyses were performed. We qualitatively summarized the results of Bland-Altman's analysis. Meta-regression, subgroup analyses, and sensitivity analyses were carried out to explore the causes of heterogeneity. RESULTS There was no significant difference in Cohen's d between rScO2 and ScvO2 or between rScO2 and SjvO2 (Cohen's d =0.06, 95% CI: -0.16 to 0.28; Cohen's d =0.03, 95% CI: -0.25 to 0.31, respectively) and notable heterogeneity existed (I2=76.0%, P<0.001; I2=73.6%, P<0.001, respectively). A positive linear correlation was present between rScO2 and ScvO2 or between rScO2 and SjvO2 (r=0.58, 95% CI: 0.54 to 0.63; r=0.60, 95% CI: 0.54 to 0.66, respectively) and the heterogeneity was not significant (I2=36.7%, P=0.065; I2=12.7%, P=0.328, respectively). In most studies, the 95% limits of agreements of Bland-Altman's analysis were large. No evidence of publication bias was observed. CONCLUSIONS The rScO2 measured by NIRS reflected the SjvO2 and ScvO2 monitored by invasive measurements in the perioperative period of children with CHD to some extent. However, wide limits of agreements between rScO2 and SjvO2 as well as ScvO2 indicated that NIRS and SjvO2 as well as ScvO2 are not interchangeable. Whether NIRS plays a prominent role in monitoring cerebral oxygen saturation in children with CHD needs further research.

Abstract
AIMS Selective antegrade cerebral perfusion technique is a method of cerebral protection used worldwide during aortic arch surgery. This study was designed to identify a potential correlation between perfusion flows and the development of postoperative transient neurological dysfunctions. METHODS From January 2015 to May 2020, 175 patients underwent elective surgical replacement of the aortic arch using selective antegrade cerebral perfusion at the Cardiac Surgery Unit of Sant'Orsola Hospital in Bologna. Considering that patients who developed a permanent neurological dysfunction and those who died before a possible evaluation of neurological status were excluded, the study population included 160 patients. The perfusion flows were collected and analyzed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the statistical risk factors involved in the onset of transient neurological dysfunctions. RESULTS The study population was divided into two groups: 138 patients (86.3%) without and 22 (13.8%) with postoperative transient neurological complications. Among the intra-operative parameters collected in the study, the univariate analysis showed that the indexed medium perfusion flow of selective antegrade cerebral perfusion was significantly lower in the transient neurological dysfunctions group (11.63 ± 2.41 ml/kg/min vs 12.62 ± 2.39 ml/kg/min, P -value = 0.03). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the female gender ( P = 0.004, OR = 4.816, IC = 1.636-14.174) was predictor of transient neurological dysfunctions. CONCLUSION The results of the study showed that lower perfusion flows seem to be related to a higher probability of developing transient neurological dysfunctions. However, the analysis of a wider population is required to confirm these preliminary data.

Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction and Cardiogenic Shock. Rev Cardiovasc Med 2022; 23:237. [PMID: 39076918 PMCID: PMC11266756 DOI: 10.31083/j.rcm2307237] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2022] [Revised: 05/05/2022] [Accepted: 05/10/2022] [Indexed: 07/31/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated by cardiogenic shock (CS) remains associated with a high rate of mortality and disabling morbidity. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is seldom considered in this setting due to the fear of peri-operative complications. Here, we analysed the outcome of CS patients undergoing CABG within 48 hours after diagnosed with AMI. Methods A single-center, retrospective data analysis was performed in 220 AMI patients with CS that underwent CABG within 48 hours between 01/2001 and 01/2018. Results 141 patients were diagnosed with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), 79 with non-STEMI (NSTEMI). Median age was 67 (60; 72) for STEMI, and 68 (60.8; 75.0) years for NSTEMI patients (p = 0.190). 52.5% of STEMI patients and 39.2% of NSTEMI patients had suffered from cardiac arrest (CA) pre-operatively (p = 0.049). Coronary 3-vessel disease was present in most patients (78.0% STEMI vs 83.5% NSTEMI; p = 0.381). Percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) were performed in 32.6% STEMI and 27.8% NSTEMI patients (p = 0.543) prior to surgery. Time from diagnosis to surgery was shorter in STEMI patients (3.92 (2.67; 5.98) vs 7.50 (4.78; 16.74) hours; p < 0.001). A complete revascularization was achieved in 82.3% of STEMI and 73.4% of NSTEMI cases (p = 0.116). Post-operative low cardiac output occurred in 14.2% of STEMI vs 8.9% of NSTEMI patients (p = 0.289). The rate of cerebrovascular injury-including hypoxic brain damage was 12.1% for STEMI and 10.1% among NSTEMI patients. (p = 0.825). 30-day mortality was 32.6% after STEMI vs 31.6% in NSTEMI cases (p = 0.285). Conclusions In contrast to the discouraging data concerning the role of PCI in AMI patients with CS and complex coronary artery disease, CABG may represent a treatment option worth considering.

Abstract
Background Identifying useful markers is essential for diagnosis and prevention of perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PNDs). Here, we attempt to understand the research basis and status, potential hotspots and trends of predictive markers associated with PNDs after cardiac surgery via bibliometric analysis. Methods A total of 4,609 original research articles and reviews that cited 290 articles between 2001 and 2021 were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) as the data source. We used the software CiteSpace to generate and analyze visual networks of bibliographic information, including published years and journals, collaborating institutions, co-cited references, and co-occurring keywords. Results The number of annual and cumulative publications from 2001 to 2021 has been increasing on the whole. The Harvard Medical School was a very prolific and important institution in this field. The journal of Ann Thorac Surg (IF 4.33) had the most publications, while New Engl J Med was the most cited journal. Neuron-specific enolase (NSE), S100b and kynurenic acid (KYNA) were frequently discussed as possible markers of PNDs in many references. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was a keyword with high frequency (430) and sigma (6.26), and inflammation was the most recent burst keyword. Conclusion Potential markers of PNDs has received growing attention across various disciplines for many years. The research basis mainly focuses on three classic biomarkers of S100b, NSE, and KYNA. The most active frontiers are the inflammation-related biomarkers (e.g., inflammatory cells, cytokines, or mediators) and surgery-related monitoring parameters (e.g., perfusion, oxygen saturation, and the depth of anesthesia).

Abstract
A superior sinus venosus atrial septal defect and partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection was corrected by a minimally invasive approach by permanently ligating the superior vena cava and a single pericardial patch for rerouting the flow through the enlarged interatrial communication. The patient had persistency of the left superior vena cava draining in the coronary sinus but no innominate vein. This anatomy poses a risk of developing right-sided superior vena cava syndrome. In this article, we describe our intraoperative strategy to assess the safety of this approach in such cases, which facilitates minimally invasive repair and avoids the most important complications of conventional repair.

Abstract
Although the prevalence of cognitive impairment and depression is higher in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) than in the general population, the mechanism has not been fully examined and impact of catheter ablation (CA) of AF also remains unclear. Recently, the development of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has enabled noninvasive measurements of regional cerebral blood volume and brain activity, in terms of cerebral oxyhemoglobin in the cerebral cortex. We assessed brain activities by NIRS, depressive symptoms by the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) and cognitive function by Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). We then compared the results between AF patients (paroxysmal AF n = 18 and persistent AF n = 14) and control subjects (n = 29). Next, we also followed up persistent AF patients who kept sinus rhythm at 3 months after CA (n = 8) and measured their brain activities using NIRS, CES-D and MMSE after CA to investigate the associations of changes in brain activities with changes in both CES-D and MMSE. Our results showed that (1) frontal and temporal brain activities were lower in patients with persistent AF than both in control subjects and paroxysmal AF patients (P < 0.01), (2) frontal and temporal brain activities were improved in more than half of the persistent AF patients who kept sinus rhythm at 3 months after CA, especially in those who presented impaired brain activity before CA, and (3) improvement of frontal brain activity was associated with improvement of CES-D (R = − 0.793, P = 0.019), whereas improvement of temporal brain activity was associated with improvement of MMSE (R = 0.749, P = 0.033). NIRS measurement showed reduced frontal and temporal brain activities in the persistent AF patients, CA improved frontal and temporal brain activities in some of these patients, and associated with improvement of depressive state and/or improvement of cognitive function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to analyse risk factors for postoperative stroke, evaluate the underlying mechanisms and report on outcomes of patients suffering a postoperative stroke after total aortic arch replacement using the frozen elephant trunk technique. METHODS Two-hundred and fifty patients underwent total aortic arch replacement via the frozen elephant trunk technique between March 2013 and November 2020 for acute and chronic aortic pathologies. Postoperative strokes were evaluated interdisciplinarily by a cardiac surgeon, neurologist and radiologist, and subclassified to each's cerebral territory. We conducted a logistic regression analysis to identify any predictors for postoperative stroke. RESULTS Overall in-hospital was mortality 10% (25 patients, 11 with a stroke). A symptomatic postoperative stroke occurred in 42 (16.8%) of our cohort. Eight thereof were non-disabling (3.3%), whereas 34 (13.6%) were disabling strokes. The most frequently affected region was the arteria cerebri media. Embolism was the primary underlying mechanism (n = 31; 73.8%). Mortality in patients with postoperative stroke was 26.2%. Logistic regression analysis revealed age over 75 (odds ratio = 3.25; 95% confidence interval 1.20-8.82; P = 0.021), a bovine arch (odds ratio = 4.96; 95% confidence interval 1.28-19.28; P = 0.021) and an acute preoperative neurological deficit (odds ratio = 19.82; 95% confidence interval 1.09-360.84; P = 0.044) as predictors for postoperative stroke. CONCLUSIONS Stroke after total aortic arch replacement using the frozen elephant trunk technique remains problematic, and most lesions are of embolic origin. Refined organ protection strategies, and sophisticated monitoring are mandatory to reduce the incidence of postoperative stroke, particularly in older patients presenting an acute preoperative neurological deficit or bovine arch.

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.

Transfusion 2022; 62:826-837. [PMID: 35244229 DOI: 10.1111/trf.16844] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2021] [Revised: 01/20/2022] [Accepted: 02/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) is a blood conservation strategy in cardiac surgery, predominantly used in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) and/or valve procedures. Although higher complexity cardiac procedures may benefit from ANH, concerns for hemodynamic instability, and organ injury during hemodilution hinder its wider acceptance. Laboratory and physiological parameters during hemodilution in complex cardiac surgeries have not been described. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS This observational cohort (2019-2021) study included 169 patients who underwent thoracic aortic repair, multiple valve procedure, concomitant CABG with the aforementioned procedure, and/or redo sternotomies. Patients who received allogeneic blood were excluded. Statistical comparisons were performed between ANH (N = 66) and non-ANH controls (N = 103). ANH consisted of removal of blood at the beginning of surgery and its return after cardiopulmonary bypass. RESULTS Intraoperatively, the ANH group received more albumin (p = .04) and vasopressor medications (p = .01), while urine output was no different between ANH and controls. Bilateral cerebral oximetry (rSO2 ) values were similar before and after hemodilution. During bypass, rSO2 were discretely lower in the ANH versus control group (right rSO2 p = .03, left rSO2 p = .05). No differences in lactic acid values were detected across the procedural continuum. Postoperatively, no differences in extubation times, intensive care unit length of stay, kidney injury, stroke, or infection were demonstrated. DISCUSSION This study suggests hemodilution to be a safe and comparable blood conservation technique, even without accounting for potential benefits of reduced allogenic blood administration. The study may contribute to better understanding and wider acceptance of ANH protocols in high-risk cardiac surgeries.

Performance Assessment of a Commercial Continuous-Wave Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Tissue Oximeter for Suitability for Use in an International, Multi-Center Clinical Trial. SENSORS 2021; 21:s21216957. [PMID: 34770264 PMCID: PMC8587042 DOI: 10.3390/s21216957] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2021] [Revised: 09/27/2021] [Accepted: 10/08/2021] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
Despite the wide range of clinical and research applications, the reliability of the absolute oxygenation measurements of continuous wave near-infrared spectroscopy sensors is often questioned, partially due to issues of standardization. In this study, we have compared the performances of 13 units of a continuous wave near-infrared spectroscopy device (PortaMon, Artinis Medical Systems, NL) to test their suitability for being used in the HEMOCOVID-19 clinical trial in 10 medical centers around the world. Detailed phantom and in vivo tests were employed to measure the precision and reproducibility of measurements of local blood oxygen saturation and total hemoglobin concentration under different conditions: for different devices used, different operators, for probe repositioning over the same location, and over time (hours/days/months). We have detected systematic differences between devices when measuring phantoms (inter-device variability, <4%), which were larger than the intra-device variability (<1%). This intrinsic variability is in addition to the variability during in vivo measurements on the forearm muscle resulting from errors in probe positioning and intrinsic physiological noise (<9%), which was also larger than the inter-device differences (<3%) during the same test. Lastly, we have tested the reproducibility of the protocol of the HEMOCOVID-19 clinical trial; that is, forearm muscle oxygenation monitoring during vascular occlusion tests over days. Overall, our conclusion is that these devices can be used in multi-center trials but care must be taken to characterize, follow-up, and statistically account for inter-device variability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence and types of interventions triggered during a drop of baseline near-infraredspectroscopy (NIRS) values in consecutive cardiac surgical patients. DESIGN A single-center, retrospective observational study. SETTING A university-affiliated tertiary care center. PARTICIPANTS Three thousand three hundred two consecutive cardiac surgical patients from October 2016 to August 2017 Interventions: None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Of the 1,972 patients who met the inclusion criteria, 576 (29.2%) patients showed NIRS deviation of -20% from baseline. Interventions performed during the drop of baseline NIRS values were documented in 285 (14.4%) patients, with a total of 391 interventions. Three hundred fifteen (80%) interventions were triggered by a deviation in NIRS and concomitant changes in standard monitoring parameters. Seventy-six (20%) interventions were triggered by NIRS deviation alone, with no concomitant pathologic deviation in standard monitoring. A total of 279 (71%) interventions were performed on patients who had no recommendation for NIRS monitoring by current national guidelines. Out of these, 30 (7.7%) interventions (1.3% of all patients) were performed based on NIRS monitoring alone. The higher risk deviation group had longer intensive care unit and hospital lengths of stays (one and 15 days) and postoperative delirium when compared with the no-deviation group (zero and 13 days) Conclusions: The authors' data suggested that most interventions triggered during the drop of baseline values during routine use of NIRS would have also been triggered by the concomitant changes in standard monitoring parameters. Routine use of NIRS for all cardiac surgical patients still is debatable and needs to be evaluated in a large prospective trial.

Prolonged postoperative cerebral oxygen desaturation after cardiac surgery: A prospective observational study. Eur J Anaesthesiol 2021; 38:966-974.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is used routinely to monitor cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (SctO2) during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) but is rarely employed outside the operating room. Previous studies indicate that patients are at risk of postoperative cerebral oxygen desaturation after cardiac surgery. OBJECTIVES We aimed to assess perioperative and postoperative changes in NIRS-derived SctO2 in cardiac surgery patients. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING The study was conducted in a tertiary referral university hospital in Australia from December 2017 to December 2018. PATIENTS We studied 34 adult patients (70.6% men) undergoing cardiac surgery requiring CPB and a reference group of 36 patients undergoing non-cardiac surgical procedures under general anaesthesia. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES We measured SctO2 at baseline, during and after surgery, and then once daily until hospital discharge, for a maximum of 7 days. We used multivariate linear mixed-effects modelling to adjust for all relevant imbalances between the two groups. RESULTS In the cardiac surgery group, SctO2 was 63.7% [95% confidence interval (CI), 62.0 to 65.5] at baseline and 61.0% (95% CI, 59.1 to 62.9, P = 0.01) on arrival in the ICU. From day 2 to day 7 after cardiac surgery, SctO2 progressively declined. At hospital discharge, SctO2 was significantly lower than baseline, at 53.5% (95% CI, 51.8 to 55.2, P < 0.001). In the reference group, postoperative SctO2 was not significantly different from baseline. On multivariable analysis, cardiac surgery, peripheral vascular disease and time since the operation were associated with greater cerebral desaturation, whereas higher haemoglobin concentrations were associated with slightly better cerebral oxygenation. CONCLUSION After cardiac surgery on CPB, but not after non-cardiac surgery, most patients experience prolonged cerebral desaturation. Such postoperative desaturation remained unresolved 7 days after surgery. The underlying mechanisms and time to resolution of such cerebral desaturations require further investigation.

Abstract
Rationale: Studies suggest that reduced cerebral perfusion may contribute to delirium development in the intensive care unit (ICU). However, evidence is limited because of factors including small sample size and limited inclusion of covariates.Objectives: To assess the feasibility of a multicenter prospective observational study using a multimodal data collection platform. Feasibility was assessed by enrollment, data-capture, and follow-up rates. The full study will aim to assess the association between noninvasively derived surrogate markers of cerebral perfusion, delirium development, and long-term cognitive outcomes in critically ill patients.Methods: Adult patients in the ICU were enrolled if they had shock and/or respiratory failure requiring invasive mechanical ventilation for >24 hours. For the first 72 hours, a near-infrared spectroscopic sensor was placed on the forehead to continuously monitor regional cerebral oxygenation (rSo2) and high-frequency (1 Hz) vital signs were concurrently captured via an arterial line. Cerebral perfusion was estimated using three variables, including mean rSo2, duration of disturbed autoregulation, and time/magnitude away from optimal mean arterial pressure (MAP). Patients were screened for delirium in the ICU and ward daily for up to 30 days. Cognitive function was assessed 3 and 12 months after ICU admission to identify cognitive impairment.Results: Fifty-nine patients were enrolled across four sites in 1 year. Data-capture rates varied across modalities but exceeded 80% for rSo2, blood gas, and delirium data capture. Vital-sign capture and 3-month follow-up rates were lower at 53% and 55%, respectively. Eighty-three percent (49 of 59) of patients experienced delirium, with a median severity of 0.56 in the ICU. Mean physiological (±standard deviation) values were: rSo2 (70.4% ± 7.0%), heart rate (83.9 ± 16.45 beats/min), MAP (76.4 ± 12.8 mm Hg), peripheral oxygenation saturation (96.5% ± 2.1%), proportion of recording time spent with disturbed autoregulation (10.1% ± 7.3%) and proportion of area under the curve outside optimal MAP (39.6% ± 22.4%). Thirty-two (54%) individuals had cerebral autoregulation curves where a targeted optimal MAP was identified. Barriers to data collection included missing vital-sign data and low follow-up rates.Conclusions: Given our current protocol, a multicenter study examining the association between cerebral oxygenation, delirium, and long-term cognitive impairment is not feasible. However, by performing an early assessment of feasibility, we identified strategies to increase capture rates to ensure success as the study begins the next phase of study recruitment.Clinical trial registered with clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03141619).

Abstract
Accumulating evidence indicates that cerebral desaturation in the perioperative period occurs more frequently than recognized. Combining monitoring modalities that reflect different aspects of cerebral perfusion status, such as near-infrared spectroscopy, jugular bulb saturation, and transcranial Doppler ultrasonography, may provide an extended window for prevention, early detection, and prompt intervention in ongoing hypoxic/ischemic neuronal injury and, thereby, improve neurologic outcome. Such an approach would minimize the impact of limitations of each monitoring modality, while individual components complement each other, enhancing the accuracy of acquired information. Current literature has failed to demonstrate any clear-cut clinical benefit of these modalities on outcome prognosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This systematic review aims to provide an up-to-date summary of the current literature examining the relationship between intraoperative regional cerebral oxygen saturation and neurological complications after cardiac surgery. METHODS Observational and interventional studies investigating the link between regional cerebral oxygen saturation and postoperative delirium, cognitive dysfunction and stroke were included. After database searching and study screening, study characteristics and major findings were extracted. RESULTS Twenty-seven studies were identified. Of the observational studies (n = 17), 8 reported that regional cerebral oxygen desaturations were significantly associated with neurological complications after cardiac surgery. Of the interventional studies (n = 10), 3 provided evidence for monitoring cerebral oximetry during cardiac surgery as a means of reducing incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction or stroke. There was significant heterogeneity in the tools and rigor used to diagnose neurological complications. CONCLUSIONS Studies to date show an inconsistent relationship between regional cerebral oxygen saturation and neurological outcomes after cardiac surgery, and lack of clear benefit of targeting cerebral oximetry to minimize neurological complications. Standardized assessments, definitions of impairment and desaturation thresholds will help determine the benefits of cerebral oximetry monitoring during cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Hypothermia is defined as a decrease in body core temperature to below 35 °C. In cardiac surgery, four stages of hypothermia are distinguished: mild, moderate, deep, and profound. The organ protection offered by deep hypothermia (DH) enables safe circulatory arrest as a prerequisite to carrying out cardiac surgical intervention. In adult cardiac surgery, DH is mainly used in aortic arch surgery, surgical treatment of pulmonary embolism, and acute type-A aortic dissection interventions. In surgery treating congenital defects, DH is used to assist aortic arch reconstructions, hypoplastic left heart syndrome interventions, and for multi-stage treatment of infants with a single heart ventricle during the neonatal period. However, it should be noted that a safe duration of circulatory arrest in DH for the central nervous system is 30 to 40 min at most and should not be exceeded to prevent severe neurological adverse events. Personalized therapy for the patient and adequate blood temperature monitoring, glycemia, hematocrit, pH, and cerebral oxygenation is a prerequisite and indispensable part of DH.

Abstract
Cardiothoracic surgeries are life-saving procedures but often it results in various complications. Intraoperative cerebral oximetry monitoring used to detect regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) is a non-invasive method that provides prognostic importance in cardiac surgery. The main aim of the present study was to evaluate the association of intraoperative cerebral oxygen monitoring during cardiac surgery on postoperative complications. This was a case-controlled retrospective study conducted on adult patients, who underwent open-heart surgery in National Heart Institute, Malaysia. The case group comprised patients on protocolized cerebral oximetry monitoring. They were treated using a standardized algorithm to maintain rScO2 not lower than 20% of baseline rScO2. The control group comprised patients with matched demographic background, preoperative risk factors, and type of surgical procedures. Propensity score stratification was utilized to contend with selection bias. Retrospective analysis was performed on 240 patients (case group) while comparing it to 407 patients (control group). The non-availability of cerebral oximetry monitoring during surgery was the prominent predictor for all outcome of complications; stroke (OR: 7.66), renal failure needing dialysis (OR: 5.12) and mortality (OR: 20.51). Postoperative complications revealed that there were significant differences for risk of mortality (p<0.001, OR = 20.51), renal failure that required dialysis (p<0.001, OR = 5.12) and stroke (p <0.05, OR = 7.66). Protocolized cerebral oximetry monitoring during cardiothoracic surgeries was found to be associated with lower incidence of stroke, renal failure requiring dialysis and mortality rate.

Abstract
Besides passive recording of brain electric or magnetic activity, also non-ionizing electromagnetic or optical radiation can be used for real-time brain imaging. Here, changes in the radiation's absorption or scattering allow for continuous in vivo assessment of regional neurometabolic and neurovascular activity. Besides magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), over the last years, also functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) was successfully established in real-time metabolic brain imaging. In contrast to MRI, fNIRS is portable and can be applied at bedside or in everyday life environments, e.g., to restore communication and movement. Here we provide a comprehensive overview of the history and state-of-the-art of real-time optical brain imaging with a special emphasis on its clinical use towards neurofeedback and brain-computer interface (BCI) applications. Besides pointing to the most critical challenges in clinical use, also novel approaches that combine real-time optical neuroimaging with other recording modalities (e.g. electro- or magnetoencephalography) are described, and their use in the context of neuroergonomics, neuroenhancement or neuroadaptive systems discussed.

Abstract
Objectives Covert stroke is a complication of coronary artery bypass graft surgery that is increasingly recognized as a serious problem. In noncardiac surgery settings, covert stroke is associated with the development of delirium, long-term cognitive decline, and future clinical stroke. Therefore, we sought to determine the feasibility of conducting a large, prospective cohort study of the influence of covert stroke on neurocognitive outcomes in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Methods NeuroVISION Cardiac pilot was a prospective cohort study enrolling patients aged ≥21 years undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgery to receive diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging of the brain after surgery to identify patients with covert stroke. Patients were screened for postoperative delirium in-hospital and were administered questionnaires of cognitive and global function (once before and twice after surgery). Regional cerebral oxygen saturation was recorded during surgery using near-infrared spectroscopy. Results Between March 27, 2017, and February 11, 2018, 50 of 66 patients enrolled (76%) completed the brain magnetic resonance imaging (1 patient per week). Among the 49 patients included in the analysis, 19 (39%; 95% confidence interval, 26%-53%) experienced perioperative covert stroke and 3 (6%) had a clinical stroke within 30 days of surgery. Postoperative delirium occurred in 5 (26%) patients with covert stroke and in 3 (10%) patients who did not experience covert stroke. Conclusions The NeuroVISION Cardiac pilot study established the feasibility of conducting a large, prospective cohort study of the determinants and consequences of covert stroke in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

Abstract
Despite advances in cardiac surgery and anesthesia, the rates of brain injury remain high in aortic arch surgery requiring circulatory arrest. The mechanisms of brain injury, including permanent and temporary neurologic dysfunction, are multifactorial, but intraoperative brain ischemia is likely a major contributor. Maintaining optimal cerebral perfusion during cardiopulmonary bypass and circulatory arrest is the key component of intraoperative management for aortic arch surgery. Various brain monitoring modalities provide different information to improve cerebral protection. Electroencephalography gives crucial data to ensure minimal cerebral metabolism during deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, transcranial Doppler directly measures cerebral arterial blood flow, and near-infrared spectroscopy monitors regional cerebral oxygen saturation. Various brain protection techniques, including hypothermia, cerebral perfusion, pharmacologic protection, and blood gas management, have been used during interruption of systemic circulation, but the optimal strategy remains elusive. Although deep hypothermic circulatory arrest and retrograde cerebral perfusion have their merits, there have been increasing reports about the use of antegrade cerebral perfusion, obviating the need for deep hypothermia. With controversy and variability of surgical practices, moderate hypothermia, when combined with unilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion, is considered safe for brain protection in aortic arch surgery performed with circulatory arrest. The neurologic outcomes of brain protection in aortic arch surgery largely depend on the following three major components: cerebral temperature, circulatory arrest time, and cerebral perfusion during circulatory arrest. The optimal brain protection strategy should be individualized based on comprehensive monitoring and stems from well-executed techniques that balance the major components contributing to brain injury.

Abstract
Background Cerebral oximetry has been widely used to measure regional oxygen saturation in brain tissue, especially during cardiac surgery. Despite its popularity, there have been inconsistent results on the use of cerebral oximetry during cardiac surgery, and few studies have evaluated cerebral oximetry during off pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery (OPCAB). Methods To evaluate the relationship between intraoperative cerebral oximetry and postoperative delirium in patients who underwent OPCAB, we included 1439 patients who underwent OPCAB between October 2004 and December 2016 and among them, 815 patients with sufficient data on regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) were enrolled in this study. We retrospectively analyzed perioperative variables and the reduction in rSO2 below cut-off values of 75, 70, 65, 60, 55, 50, 45, 40, and 35%. Furthermore, we evaluated the relationship between the reduction in rSO2 and postoperative delirium. Results Delirium occurred in 105 of 815 patients. In both univariable and multivariable analyses, the duration of rSO2 reduction was significantly longer in patients with delirium at cut-offs of < 50 and 45% (for every 5 min, adjusted odds ratio (OR) 1.007 [95% Confidence interval (CI) 1.001 to 1.014] and adjusted OR 1.012 [1.003 to 1.021]; p = 0.024 and 0.011, respectively). The proportion of patients with a rSO2 reduction < 45% was significantly higher among those with delirium (adjusted OR 1.737[1.064 to 2.836], p = 0.027). Conclusions In patients undergoing OPCAB, intraoperative rSO2 reduction was associated with postoperative delirium. Duration of rSO2 less than 50% was 40% longer in the patients with postoperative delirium. The cut-off value of intraoperative rSO2 that associated with postoperative delirium was 50% for the total patient population and 55% for the patients younger than 68 years.

Abstract
Despite three decades of advancements in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) methods and post-resuscitation care, neurological prognosis remains poor among survivors of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, and there are no reliable methods for predicting neurological outcomes in patients with cardiac arrest (CA). Adopting more effective methods of neurological monitoring may aid in improving neurological outcomes and optimizing therapeutic interventions for each patient. In the present review, we summarize the development, evolution, and potential application of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in adults with CA, highlighting the clinical relevance of NIRS brain monitoring as a predictive tool in both pre-hospital and in-hospital settings. Several clinical studies have reported an association between various NIRS oximetry measurements and CA outcomes, suggesting that NIRS monitoring can be integrated into standardized CPR protocols, which may improve outcomes among patients with CA. However, no studies have established acceptable regional cerebral oxygen saturation cut-off values for differentiating patient groups based on return of spontaneous circulation status and neurological outcomes. Furthermore, the point at which resuscitation efforts can be considered futile remains to be determined. Further large-scale randomized controlled trials are required to evaluate the impact of NIRS monitoring on survival and neurological recovery following CA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the performance of a novel NeurOs cerebral oximetry monitor against the INVOS monitor during the entire intraoperative phase of cardiac surgery, including periods of known fluctuation in brain oxygenation, such as preoxygenation, induction, cannulation, and cardiopulmonary bypass. DESIGN This study was a prospective, nonrandomized, healthcare-provider and outcome-assessor blinded study. SETTING Tertiary care university hospital; single institutional study. PARTICIPANTS Twenty-three patients who underwent cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. INTERVENTIONS Both self-adhesive INVOS sensors and the assembled NeurOs sensors were placed accordingly when the patient arrived in the operating room. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Ten out of 13 cases under the normal mode and eight out of the 10 cases under the high- sensitivity mode showed significant correlations between the NeurOs and INVOS groups (p < 0.05, r value from 0.24-0.88). When all cases were combined, NeurOs demonstrated significant correlation with INVOS (r = 0.5, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.44-0.56, p < 0.01 for normal mode; r = 0.69, 95% CI 0.64 to 0.74, p < 0.01 for high-sensitivity mode) in both modes. To evaluate the data diversity, the authors performed a cluster analysis and found much less variation existed in the NeurOs normal mode when compared with INVOS (standard deviation [SD] 16.6% in INVOS, 4% in NeurOs normal mode) but similar patterns in the high-sensitivity mode (SD 17.6% in INVOS, 15.2% in NeurOs high-sensitivity mode). Bland-Altman plot analysis showed that most of the data fell between ± 1.96 SD lines, which demonstrated good consistency between these two methods under both modes of NeurOs (-28.8 to 30.8 in the normal mode; -36.6 to 32.7 in high-sensitivity mode). In the normal mode of NeurOs monitoring, receiver operating characteristic analysis suggested a 2% cutoff point was most optimal from the baseline for detecting hyperoxia (sensitivity 73%; specificity 66%) and minus 1% (sensitivity 66%; specificity 67%) for detecting hypoxia. Whereas in the high-sensitivity mode, the optimal cutoff point was 3% from baseline for detecting hyperoxia (sensitivity 75%; specificity 68%), and minus 3% for detecting hypoxia (sensitivity 90%; specificity 45%). CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, the novel NeurOs system was found to correlate with INVOS cerebral oximetry measurements during cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Background: Rectal prolapse (RP) is primarily a disease of the elderly, where treatment may be associated with significant postoperative morbidity including that related to anesthesia. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of a novel abdominal approach to RP repair under sedation and local anesthesia and to assess short- and long-term clinical outcomes in elderly patients (>70 years). Design Settings: This is a prospective pilot study with 10 patients using a novel RP repair. The anesthesia type was local or epidural with sedation. Follow-up was done at 30 days, 12, and 24 months. Patients: Patients were men and women >70 years of age with RP. Main Outcome Measures: (1) Feasibility: successful completion of RP repair using the novel abdominal approach with laparoscopic assistance. (2) Safety: safety was measured by the incidence of the intraoperative complications (bowel perforation, organ injury, and bleeding requiring blood transfusion). (3) Sedation and local anesthesia feasibility: surgery was safely completed without patient intubation. Results: Ten female patients >70 years of age underwent RP repair using the novel abdominal approach. General anesthesia was not required in any of the 10 patients. Two patients recurred within 6 months. One of the patients with recurrence of RP subsequently underwent laparoscopic rectopexy, and the other was minimal and required no further treatment. One mortality occurred at 3 months unrelated to the procedure. No other anesthetic or surgical intraoperative and postoperative complications were observed. Limitations: This is a single-institution pilot study. Conclusions: Abdominal RP repair under sedation and regional anesthesia appears feasible and safe in elderly patients and may, in the future, provide an effective alternative to current treatment options for RP, avoiding general anesthesia.

Abstract
Perioperative stroke is one of the most severe and feared complications of cardiac surgery. Based on the timing of onset and detection, perioperative stroke can be classified as intraoperative or postoperative. The pathogenesis of perioperative stroke is multifactorial, which makes prediction and prevention challenging. However, information on its incidence, mechanisms, diagnosis, and treatment can be helpful in minimizing the perioperative neurological risk for individual patients. We herein provide suggestions on preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative strategies aimed at reducing the risk of perioperative stroke and at improving the outcomes of patients who experience a perioperative stroke.
