PbtO2 monitoring in normobaric hyperoxia targeted therapy in acute subarachnoidal hemorrhage.

Conclusion: The use of PbtO2 monitoring may be useful for monitoring the local tissue values that are useful for induction of normobaric hyperoxia and optimizing the therapy toward more target-defined values. It is an important part of multimodal neuromonitoring, and is the gold standard for brain oxygenation monitoring that can lead to better patient outcome. PMID: 29541487 [PubMed]
