During CPR as it is currently administered, treatments are selected from an algorithm derived by monitoring with ECG alone. One of the reasons for this is that no other devices are presently thought to be effective in helping to make treatment determinations. Monitoring of regional cerebral oxygen saturation with near infrared light is non-invasive and provides information on brain tissue oxygenation and hemodynamics. The results of our study suggest that measurements derived from continuously monitoring regional cerebral oxygen saturation during CPR can be considered an effective method of predicting the ROSC in cardiac arrest patients. Methods: In 95 patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, the tissue oxygenation index (TOI) was continuously monitored (NIRO-200NX, Hamamatsu Photonics). We investigated the following parameters with respect to whether or not ROSC was achieved: TOI value at the contact of patients (initial TOI); TOI value just before ROSC (pre-ROSC TOI); and the maximum TOI during CPR (maximum TOI). Results: All the patients monitored received treatment with shocks or drugs and the initial TOI was 35.3±7.3%. For 74 patients who did not achieve ROSC, the maximum TOI was 41.0±7.4%, whereas for 21 patients who did achieve ROSC, the pre-ROSC TOI was 51.3±3.6% and the maximum TOI was 64.3±11.4%. ROSC was not achieved in the patients with maximum TOI below 45%. Conclusion: The pre-ROSC TOI was significantly higher than the maximum TOI in the patients who did not achieve ROSC which suggests the possibility of predicting ROSC by monitoring the increase in TOI. In cases where the TOI remains low, there is a possibility that ROSC should not be expected. In such cases, it may be desirable to attempt to improve the quality of CPR to increase the TOI before delivering shocks or administering drugs.

Objective Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after cardiac surgery and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a noninvasive technique for real-time measurement of cerebral tissue oxygenation. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the correlation of AKI with hemoglobin and regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) measured intraoperatively and postoperatively in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the prospectively collected data of 45 adult patients with normal renal function who underwent isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) from January 2014 to May 2014. Kidney injury was assessed according to the Acute Kidney Injury Network criteria. rScO2 and hemoglobin were measured every hour intraoperatively and for the first 24 hours postoperatively. Results The hemoglobin concentration and rScO2 were significantly lower in patients with than without AKI, and no linear trends were observed. No exact cut-off values were obtained. Conclusion This retrospective study shows that a lower rScO2 and hemoglobin concentration are correlated with AKI after CABG in patients with no peripheral vascular disease or recent myocardial infarction. We suggest that cerebral oximetry alone may predict postoperative AKI well.
