Near infrared spectroscopy for evaluation of skeletal muscle tissue oxygenation in different types of shock
نویسندگان
چکیده
Clinical examination is non-invasive, but has well-recognized limitations in detecting compensated and uncompensated low flow states and their severity. This paper describes the principles of near infra-red spectroscopy (NIRS) and the basis for its proposed use, in hypovolaemic, cardiogenic and septic shock, for assessing global and regional tissue oxygenation. The vascular occlusion test is explained. Limitations of NIRS, current controversies, and what is necessary in the future to make this technology a part of the initial and ongoing assessment of a patient, are discussed as well. The ultimate goal of such techniques is to prevent miss-assessment and inadequate resuscitation of patients, two major initiators in the development of multisystem organ failure and death.

Measurement of skeletal muscle tissue oxygenation in the critically ill
Shock is a state of acutely reduced tissue oxygenation. In cardiogenic shock oxygen delivery (DO2) is reduced, but oxygen extraction is preserved. In septic shock DO2 is preserved, but oxygen extraction is decreased because of microvascular changes and disturbed metabolism. Global assessment of DO2 and oxygen consumption does not tell us enough about adequacy of regional perfusion. The aim of t...

Arts speech therapy (AST) is a therapeutic method within complementary medicine and has been practiced for decades for various medical conditions. It comprises listening and the recitation of different forms of speech exercises under the guidance of a licensed speech therapist. The aim of our study was to noninvasively investigate whether different types of recitation influence hemodynamics and...
متن کاملNear-infrared spectroscopy for monitoring peripheral tissue perfusion in critically ill patients.
Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive technique that allows determination of tissue oxygenation based on spectro-photometric quantitation of oxy- and deoxyhemoglobin within a tissue. This technique has gained acceptance as a tool to monitor peripheral tissue perfusion in critically ill patient. NIRS principle is based on the use of near-infrared electromagnetic waves for qualitati...
متن کاملNoninvasive assessment of sympathetic vasoconstriction in human and rodent skeletal muscle using near-infrared spectroscopy and Doppler ultrasound.
The precise role of the sympathetic nervous system in the regulation of skeletal muscle blood flow during exercise has been challenging to define in humans, partly because of the limited techniques available for measuring blood flow in active muscle. Recent studies using near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to measure changes in tissue oxygenation have provided an alternative method to evaluate vas...
متن کاملNear-infrared spectroscopy for monitoring muscle oxygenation.
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive method for monitoring oxygen availability and utilization by the tissues. In intact skeletal muscle, NIRS allows semi-quantitative measurements of haemoglobin plus myoglobin oxygenation (tissue O2 stores) and the haemoglobin volume. Specialized algorithms allow assessment of the oxidation-reduction (redox) state of the copper moiety (CuA) of m...
