This randomized, double-blind study compared rapid (30-second) versus slow (180-second) initiation of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) during coronary artery bypass surgery. Researchers evaluated cerebral tissue
This prospective observational study evaluated whether intraoperative renal (SrO₂) and thenar muscle oxygen saturation (SmO₂), measured using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), could predict post-operative increases
This BMJ Open study outlines a prospective cohort trial evaluating near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to monitor cerebral and renal oxygen saturation during pediatric cardiopulmonary bypass
This study assessed whether intraoperative renal near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) could predict acute renal failure (ARF) in 357 cardiac surgery patients. It found that longer
This randomized clinical study assessed how varying sweep gas flow rates affect respiratory alkalosis and cerebral oxygenation during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in 84 open-heart
This study evaluates the role of continuous monitoring of venous drainage flow and oxygen extraction (ERiO2) using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in cerebral perfusion during
This study investigates the impact of pulsatile and non-pulsatile cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) techniques on cerebral perfusion in coronary artery bypass grafting surgeries. Using near-infrared
