Noninvasive Optical Measurement of Microvascular Cerebral Hemodynamics and Autoregulation in the Neonatal ECMO Patient

Our pilot results suggest that systemic measures alone cannot distinguish impaired CA from intact CA during ECMO. Furthermore, optical neuromonitoring could help determine patient-specific ECMO pump flows for optimal CA integrity, thereby reducing risk of secondary brain injury.
