Abstract
Purpose: Patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgery are at risk of developing perioperative stroke, but residual effects of anesthesia may hamper timely detection. This study aims to determine if there is an association between intraoperative regional cerebral oxygenation (ScO2) monitoring using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and the occurrence of early perioperative stroke within three days after cardiothoracic surgery.
Methods: We performed a single-center retrospective observational cohort study including all consecutive cardiothoracic surgery patients with routinely perioperative ScO2 monitoring admitted postoperatively to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) between 2008 and 2017. Patients with a confirmed stroke in the anterior cerebral circulation on brain imaging were included in the analysis. Intraoperative area under the curve (AUC), duration, and total ScO2 excursions below predefined thresholds (< 50% ScO2 or > 20% reduction below baseline) were calculated for each hemisphere. Stroke-affected and non-affected hemispheres were compared using logistic regression analyses to investigate a potential association between ScO2 values and stroke.
Results: Of the 2454 cardiothoracic surgery patients with perioperative ScO2 monitoring, 39 had a anterior stroke on brain imaging. ScO2 readings of 44 affected hemispheres were compared to 34 non-affected hemispheres. Only the duration of ScO2 < 50% or a > 20% drop from baseline were significantly associated with global ischemia (OR 1.30 (0.95%CI; 1.09-2.30)) when comparing affected (72 [5 to 33] min.) versus non-affected (28 [4 to 44] min.) hemispheres.
Conclusion: The duration of ScO2 values < 50% or a drop > 20% from baseline were associated with the occurrence of early perioperative global cerebral ischemia within three days after cardiothoracic surgery.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing is a clinical journal publishing papers related to technology in the fields of anaesthesia, intensive care medicine, emergency medicine, and peri-operative medicine.
The journal has links with numerous specialist societies, including editorial board representatives from the European Society for Computing and Technology in Anaesthesia and Intensive Care (ESCTAIC), the Society for Technology in Anesthesia (STA), the Society for Complex Acute Illness (SCAI) and the NAVAt (NAVigating towards your Anaestheisa Targets) group.
The journal publishes original papers, narrative and systematic reviews, technological notes, letters to the editor, editorial or commentary papers, and policy statements or guidelines from national or international societies. The journal encourages debate on published papers and technology, including letters commenting on previous publications or technological concerns. The journal occasionally publishes special issues with technological or clinical themes, or reports and abstracts from scientificmeetings. Special issues proposals should be sent to the Editor-in-Chief. Specific details of types of papers, and the clinical and technological content of papers considered within scope can be found in instructions for authors.
