Combined Cerebral and Renal Near-Infrared Spectroscopy After Congenital Heart Surgery
The maintenance of an adequate oxygen supply to tissues after congenital heart surgery is essential for good outcomes. The objective of this study was to assess the usefulness of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) for estimating central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO 2 ) using both cerebral and renal...
