Article: Researchers from University of Heidelberg report on findings in perfusion.

"Continuous EEG provides the unique possibility to monitor neuronal function non-invasively. In our pilot study, we evaluated EEG spectral power during spontaneous drops in cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) in deeply sedated and mechanically ventilated patients with severe stroke," investigators in Heidelberg, Germany report (see also Perfusion).

"We aimed to identify parameters that may be used for continuous monitoring even in patients with a burst-suppression baseline EEG pattern. Twenty ventilated and sedated patients with severe hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke underwent continuous EEG monitoring with synchronous CPP recording. EEG monitoring duration was 83.9 ...
