To prevent brain damage during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), adequate cerebral
perfusion for cerebral oxygen demand should be maintained. We monitored jugular venous …

This study investigates changes of jugular bulb oxygen saturation (Sjo2) measured by
fiberoptic jugular bulb oximetry and changes of intracranial hemodynamics using …

Background Jugular venous hemoglobin desaturation during the rewarming phase of
cardiopulmonary bypass is associated with adverse neuropsychologic outcome and may …

Recent investigations demonstrate that cerebral blood flow (CBF) progressively declines
during hypothermic, nonpulsatile cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). If CBF declines because …

Recent reports have described cerebral venous oxygen desaturation during and after
rewarming from hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass. Additionally, patients undergoing …

Background: To determine the effect of pulsatility during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on
cerebral oxygenation, we measured oxyhaemoglobin (HbO2), deoxyhaemoglobin (Hb) and …

Systemic venous oxygen saturation is clinically used as an indicator of a satisfactory oxygen
supply demand balance on cardiopuimonary bypass (CBP). Cerebral desaturation has been …

Background Jugular venous catheters and near-infrared spectroscopy can measure
cerebral venous blood hemoglobin oxygen saturation (SvO2). We used computer simulation …

Background. In this study, we assessed the effects of normothermia and hypothermia during
cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) both on internal jugular venous oxygen saturation (SjvO2) …
