Initiatives Webinar series with support from Medtronic* & Phillips* presents…“Monitoring Regional Oxygen Saturation: Assessing the Value of NIRS in Clinical Practice”

Conventional cardiovascular monitoring may not detect tissue hypoxia, and conventional cardiovascular support aiming at global hemodynamics may not restore tissue oxygenation. This webinar will review the use of Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Systems (NIRS) to detect cerebral desaturation and how guided detection and correction of cerebral desaturation may assist clinicians in reducing the perioperative incidence and depth of cerebral desaturation and improving postoperative outcomes in the cardiovascular surgery.

Presenter: Jeffrey A. Green, MD MSHA, FASA  |  Vice Chair, Department of Anesthesiology  |  Virginia Commonwealth University
