BACKGROUND: Studies with continuous wave near infrared spectroscopy (CW-NIRS) have
shown little difference in brain oxygenation of dead compared to live subjects. We …

Experimental research has shown correlation between near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)
and blood loss, but these findings have not been validated in man. Ten blood donors were …

Reflection near infrared spectroscopy (reNIRS) has been proposed as a novel technique for
the measurement of absolute values of total hemoglobin (tHb), oxygenated hemoglobin …

Broadband near-infrared spectroscopy (bNIRS) is a powerful non-invasive technique for the
measurement of hemoglobin. bNIRS systems are relatively simple to construct compared …

The cost and highly invasive nature of brain monitoring modality in traumatic brain injury
patients currently restrict its utility to specialist neurological intensive care settings. We aim to …

Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is an optical technique that provides information on
cerebral tissue oxygenation and hemodynamics on a continuous, direct, and noninvasive …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) enables continuous non-invasive quantification of blood
and tissue oxygenation, and may be useful for quantification of cerebral blood volume (CBV) …

Abstract Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) is an optical technique that measures tissue
absorbance of light at several wavelengths in the 700-1000 nm spectral region. From 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 …

Neurological complications during critical illness remain a frequent cause of morbidity and
mortality. To date, monitors of cerebral function including electroencephalography, jugular …
