We propose the use of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to monitor neonatal brain
temperature non-invasively and continuously during hypothermic treatment by measuring …

Mild hypothermia (HT 32° C− 33° C) is an effective neuroprotective strategy for a variety of
acute brain injuries. However, the wide clinical adaptation of HT 32− 33° C has been …

Near-infrared spectroscopy is a new technique for noninvasive monitoring of tissue
oxygenation and hemodynamics. Until now, it has been used solely for research into the …

The technique of near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is based on the principle of light
attenuation by the chromophores oxyhaemoglobin (HbO 2), deoxyhaemoglobin (Hb) and …

Heatstroke, a form of hyperthermia, is a life-threatening condition characterized by an
elevated core body temperature that rises above 40° C (104° F) and central nervous system …

Optical determinations of tissue temperature by near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy provides
the basis for measuring localized changes in tissue metabolism associated with congnition …

Describes the construction, fluid dynamics and optical properties of an in vitro model of the
neonatal brain for testing near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) instruments. The brain model is …

Near-infrared spectroscopy is a new technique for noninvasive monitoring of tissue
oxygenation and haemodynamics. Quantitative measurements can be made of …

Adult near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a potential method for noninvasively assessing
changes in cerebral oxygenation. Unlike neonatal NIRS, access of light to the adult brain …

The principle of near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was first clearly defined by Jobsis in
1977, and recent technical and methodological advances have made it possible to use …
