Continuous Monitoring of Jugular Bulb Oxygen Saturation and the Effect of Drugs Acting on Cerebral Metabolism

Non-invasive measurement of oxygen saturation in the spinal vein using SWI: Quantitative evaluation under conditions of physiological and caffeine load

“…The true angle θ may therefore be larger than the angle we measured, and the true oxygen saturation may be smaller. In fact, we found slightly higher average oxygen saturations in the rest control groups when compared with previous reports (Bullock et al, 1993). 2) We found that in the physiological load measurements, especially in the hyperventilation group, the motion of the thorax induced a motion artifact and some portions of the ASV were unclear.…”

Quantitative Measurements of Cerebral Blood Oxygen Saturation Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging

“…This relationship is maintained even under clinically relevant low flow conditions (Sharan et al, 1989). For these reasons, many investigators have developed methods for measuring the CvO 2 , or the partial pressure of oxygen in venous blood (PvO 2 ), from within the venous sinuses or jugular system (Cruz et al, 1990;Cruz, 1988Cruz, , 1993Bullock et al, 1993). However, these methods are invasive in nature and carry certain risks preventing them from being widely used in a daily clinical setting.…”

Arteriovenous differences of oxygen and transcranial Doppler sonography in the management of aneurysmatic subarachnoid hemorrhage

“…In cases with elevated ICP, treatment is significantly facilitated with SjvO 2 monitoring. 11,12 The diagnosis of CVS was based on TCD criteria alone. There was no angiographic confirmation of CVS.…”
