The significance of regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation values and limb-to-arm ratios of near-infrared spectroscopy to detect critical limb ischemia

Abstract: This study examines the application of near-infrared spectroscopy to noninvasively detect critical limb ischemia using regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation in percentage values and regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation limb-to-arm ratios. The regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation values and regional hemoglobin oxygen saturation limb-to-arm ratios were calculated in 61 patients with critical limb ischemia (group A). Measurements were performed in rest at four fixed spots at the most affected lower limb and at … Show more

“…To our knowledge, we are the first group to investigate the effects of prolonged sitting and prolonged sitting in a mild hypercapnic environment on microvascular oxygenation measurements in skeletal muscle in the lower extremities. Microvascular oxygenation and O 2 use were assessed using NIRS, which is a noninvasive method of determining tissue [HbO 2 ], [HHb], and [Hbtot] as well as TOI (7). TOI represents the balance between O 2 delivery and utilization, which is affected by the balance between blood flow to the tissue and tissue metabolic activity (25).…”

“…One of the limitations of NIRS is the measurement of locations with more adipose tissue, which can cause inaccurate values [27]. NIRS is also limited by tissue infection and inflammation.…”

“…Limitations of NIRS include overlying infection/inflammation and the strong possibility of erroneous measurements when examining tissues with an abundance of overlaying fat[ 97 ]. Moreover, NIRS measurement results can be sensitive to oxygen delivery and extraction[ 98 ].…”
