Spinal anaesthesia in neonates and infants: What about the cerebral oxygen saturation?

British Journal of Anesthesia Nov 06, 2017

Sola C, et al. - Researchers undertook this investigation to determine the haemodynamic consequences of spinal anaesthesia (SA) in infants, especially focusing on its effect on cerebral perfusion using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-based cerebral oximetry (rScO2). In findings, no clinically significant variation in cerebral oxygen saturation was highlighted as a result of SA administration in neonate and infants. Though mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) decreased significantly, cerebral auto-regulation seemed to remain effective in neonates and not changed by spinal anaesthesia.
