Abstract:BackgroundTo investigate the clinical significance of the disturbance coefficient (DC) and regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) as obtained through the use of electrical bioimpedance and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in pediatric neurocritical care.Participants and methodsWe enrolled 45 pediatric patients as the injury group and 70 healthy children as the control group. DC was derived from impedance analysis of 0.1 mA–50 kHz current via temporal electrodes. rSO2 was the percentage of oxyhemoglobin me… Show more
