Real-time Monitoring of Cerebral Blood Flow and Cerebral Oxygenation During Rapid Ventricular Pacing in Neurovascular Surgery: A Pilot Study

Conclusions: RVP reduces CBF and cerebral oxygenation. Brain tissue pO2 and regional cerebral oxygenation are correlated but unlike CBF respond to RVP in a delayed manner. Further research is required to evaluate the impact of longer RVP bursts on brain oxygenation.
