Key result
Intraoperative cerebral desaturation during major non-cardiac surgery is linked to postoperative cognitive dysfunction.
Why the study?
Does intraoperative reduction in rScO2 during non-cardiac surgery influence postoperative outcomes such as cognitive dysfunction?
Systematic Review
Does intraoperative reduction in rScO2 during non-cardiac surgery influence postoperative outcomes such as cognitive dysfunction?
Certain non-cardiac surgical procedures are associated with an increased risk of cerebral desaturation, which may be related to postoperative cognitive dysfunction.

Certain non-cardiac procedures reduce rScO2; leaves open whether monitoring prevents postoperative cognitive dysfunction.
Henning B. Nielsen (2014) conducted a systematic review in Non-cardiac surgery. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) determined cerebral oxygenation was evaluated on Reduction in rScO2 and its influence on postoperative outcome. Intraoperative cerebral desaturation occurs during specific non-cardiac procedures, such as thoracic, major abdominal, and hip surgeries, and may be associated with postoperative cognitive dysfunction.
