Summary

The aim of the study was investigated the cerebral tissue oxygenation index (c-TOI) measured by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)in the preterm infants with intracranial haemorrhagia.

Conditions

• Cerebral Oxygenation, Intracranial Haemorrhagia

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	device:INVOS 5100	Continuous wave NIRS is a method for measurement of cerebral oxygenation and haemodynamics. This method is non-invasive, continuous, and can also be used as bedside monitoring. With continuous wave NIRS only changes in concentration of oxyhaemoglobin (O2Hb) and deoxyhaemoglobin (HHb) can be measured, not the absolute level of these parameters. It has been shown that changes in concentration of HbD (O2Hb - HHb) reflect changes in CBF. So, continuous monitoring of changes in concentration of HbD can be used as an indicator of changes in CBF, but changes in CBV will also influence the HbD signal, as will changes in arterial O2 saturation (saO2) and changes in cerebral metabolic rate for oxygen.
