[Cerebral oximetry in the para-infrared range. The possibilities for its use in a neurological resuscitation department]. / Tserebral'naia oksimetriia v parainfrakrasnom diapazone. Vozmozhnosti ispol'zovaniia v usloviiakh neiroreanimatsionnogo otdeleniia.

The potentialities of cerebral oximetry in the para-infrared band as a means of neuromonitoring are assessed. The method is highly informative for selecting the treatment strategy during the acute period of craniocerebral injury and cerebrovascular diseases. Simultaneous analysis of intracranial pressure, central hemodynamics, and cerebral oximetry permits differentiation of mechanisms of intracranial hypertension and its compensation. Increase of rSO2 in increased intracranial pressure corresponds to brain hyperemia, its decrease to cerebral ischemia. A long trend of rSO2 changes is informative for disease prediction.
