Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Monitoring in Pediatric Anesthesiology: A Pro-Con Discussion.
Curēus 2021 March 15
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been increasingly used as a non-invasive measurement of cerebral tissue oxygen saturation. The aim of this short review is to discuss the benefits and drawbacks of its use in the pediatric anesthesia population. In the context of cardiac surgery, lower intraoperative NIRS values have shown a modest association with neurodevelopmental outcomes while lower neonatal intensive care unit NIRS values have been correlated with reduced neurodevelopment in children. However, it is still unclear if management aimed at increasing cerebral tissue oxygenation would have any benefit on these outcomes. Without prospective research looking into the effects of intervention given proper thresholds, the true benefit of NIRS use is still up for debate. Even with current research gaps, its use in the clinical setting continues.
