SUMMARY
Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) has become a widely used intraoperative measure to assess rScO2 as a non-invasive marker of cerebral oxygenation, especially during cardiac surgery. rScO2 has also become established in noncardiac surgery involving a risk of cerebral regional hypoperfusion, such as carotid surgery, though its` value for postoperative outcome is still disputed. To an intraoperative use, preoperatively reduced rScO2 was found to be associated with common parameters of cardiac function such as left ventricular function and NYHA Stage in cardiac surgery patients. Based upon this assumption, and the observation that patients undergoing . . .
