Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) can be used to estimate the oxygen saturation of hemoglobin in tissue. The thin skull and scalp of infants is in theory well suited for NIRS measurements of the brain ...
Cerebral oxygenation (rcSO 2) monitoring in preterm infants may identify periods of cerebral hypoxia or hyperoxia. We hypothesised that there was a relationship between rcSO 2 values and short term ...
