BACKGROUND: This study was undertaken to investigate the physiological effects of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) on cerebral oxygen metabolism estimated by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). METHODS: Ten newborn piglets (2.1 to 2.6 kg) were monitored with right frontal NIRS; the right jugular bulb was cannulated for intermittent sampling of jugular venous blood. All animals underwent CPB, cooling to a core temperature below 15 degrees C, 60 minutes of DHCA followed by subsequent reperfusion and rewarming. Continuously recorded NIRS data and intermittent jugular venous blood values were compared. RESULTS: NIRS performance was examined over the jugular venous oxygen saturation (SjvO2) range of 40 to 98 %, a linear correlation was found between SjvO2 and NIRS-derived regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) (r = 0.91, p < 0.001). A correlation was observed between the cellular oxidation NIRS-parameter cytochrome oxidase aa3 (CytOx) slope during the DHCA period in relation to rectal and nasopharyngeal temperature immediately before the onset of DHCA (r = 0.75 and 0.85, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that NIRS-measured hemoglobin oxygenation parameters may reflect functional changes in cerebral hemodynamics and brain tissue oxygenation, while CytOx values represent related effects on intracellular oxidative metabolism.
