Validation of Cerebral Non-invasive Monitoring and Prediction of Post-operative Delirium and Outcomes: A Prospective Observational Study
In Brief
An observational study for Delirium and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 153 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Brain monitoring using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) started in 2002 in the operating room of the Montreal heart Institute (MHI). This was followed by the use of somatic NIRS in 2010, transcranial Doppler in 2015 and processed electroencephalogram (pEEG) using Sedline (Masimo, Irvine CA) in 2017. The introduction of those modalities led to significant change in intraoperative management. The goal of these devices is to improve our ability to detect and predict post-operative complications as well as offering insights on how to prevent them. The current project explores in further detail the impact of the introduction of pEEG in the operating room and in the intensive care unit (ICU) on post-operative delirium.
