Brain injury is one of the most consequential problems facing neonates, with many preterm
and term infants at risk for cerebral hypoxia and ischemia. To develop effective …

Adequate oxygen delivery to a tissue depends on sufficient oxygen content in arterial blood
and blood flow to the tissue. Oximetry is a technique for the assessment of blood …

Background Near-infrared spectroscopy non-invasively measures regional cerebral oxygen
saturation. Intraoperative cerebral desaturations have been associated with worse …

We describe the validation methodology for the NIRS based FORE-SIGHT ELITE®(CAS
Medical Systems, Inc., Branford, CT, USA) tissue oximeter for cerebral and somatic tissue …

Delirium is common during critical illness and is associated with morbidity and mortality, but
its pathophysiology is unknown. We tested whether dysfunctional cerebral autoregulation …

Aim Predicting the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) during cardiopulmonary
resuscitation in victims of cardiac arrest (CA) remains challenging. Cerebral regional oxygen …

Aim The prediction of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) during resuscitation of
patients suffering of cardiac arrest (CA) is particularly challenging. Regional cerebral oxygen …

Cerebral and somatic near-infrared spectroscopy monitors are commonly used to detect
tissue oxygenation in various circumstances. This form of monitoring is based on tissue …

Purpose Previous studies have found that most cerebral oximeters are subject to
inaccuracies secondary to extracranial contamination of the cerebral oximetric signals. We …

We summarize the available in vivo validation of cerebral near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)
oximetry to inform future in vivo validation strategies. In particular, to establish a way forward …
