MENG, Lingzhong e GELB, Adrian W.. Cerebral oximetry: Three questions to ask. Rev. colomb. anestesiol. [online]. 2015, vol.43, suppl.1, pp.52-56. ISSN 0120-3347.
Cerebral oximetry based on near-infrared spectroscopy can non-invasively measure hemoglobin oxygen saturation in mixed arterial, venous and capillary blood in the brain. In order to determine if this is a clinically desirable monitor, we need to answer three questions in order. The first question is if cerebral oximetry monitors an important aspect of physiology. The second question is if the physiology can be optimized based on this monitor. The third question is if the outcome can be improved based on cerebral oximetry-guided clinical care. In this review, we share our answers to these three questions.
