Neuromonitoring with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive, real-time and continuous cerebral oximetry monitoring with potential applications in the management of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and in the detection of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between NIRS and outcome in aSAH and its diagnostic accuracy for DCI.

Methods

Systematic review and meta-analysis of studies involving adult aSAH patients monitored with NIRS during index hospitalization. Primary outcome was the functional outcome at 90 days or more. Secondary outcomes included any functional outcome, mortality and diagnostic accuracy for DCI. Random effects meta-analyses were performed, and for diagnostic accuracy, forest plots and random effects
