Abstract
Measurement of regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in cardiac surgery is known to be useful in reducing postoperative neurological complications. We here present a case of a 71-year-old man in whom severe decrease in unilateral rSO2 was observed after induction of general anesthesia for percutaneous mitral valve clipping, although no neurological abnormalities were found. NIRS does not always predict postoperative neurological complications.
期刊介绍:
Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia (ACA) is the official journal of the Indian Association of Cardiovascular Thoracic Anaesthesiologists. The journal is indexed with PubMed/MEDLINE, Excerpta Medica/EMBASE, IndMed and MedInd. The journal’s full text is online at www.annals.in. With the aim of faster and better dissemination of knowledge, we will be publishing articles ‘Ahead of Print’ immediately on acceptance. In addition, the journal would allow free access (Open Access) to its contents, which is likely to attract more readers and citations to articles published in ACA. Authors do not have to pay for submission, processing or publication of articles in ACA.
