| Sumario: | Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is currently the only non-invasive method allowing for continuous long-term assessment of cerebral hemodynamic. We evaluate the feasibility of using continueous electroencephalgraphy (cEEG)-fNIRS to study the cortical hemodynamic associated with status epilepticus (SE), burst suppression (BS) and periodic discharges (PDs). Eleven adult comatose patients admitted to the neuroICU for SE were recruited, and cEEG-fNIRS monitoring was performed to measure concentration changes in oxygenated (HbO) and deoxygenated hemoglobin (HbR). Seizures were associated with a large increase HbO and a decrease in HbR whose durations were positively correlated with the seizures' length. Similar observations were made for hemodynamic changes associated with bursts, showing overall increases in HbO and decreases in HbR relative to the suppression periods. PDs were seen to induce widespread HbO increases and HbR decreases. These results suggest that normal neurovascular coupling is partially retained with the hemodynamic response to the detected EEG patterns in these patients. However, the shape and distribution of the response were highly variable. This work highlighted the feasibility of conducting long-term cEEG-fNIRS to monitor hemodynamic changes over a large cortical area in critically ill patients, opening new routes for better understanding and management of abnormal EEG patterns in neuroICU. |
