INVOS™ Cerebral/Somatic Oximeter for real-time monitoring

Cerebral oxygenation and perfusion can be monitored continuously and noninvasively during cardiac surgery utilizing the INVOS™ cerebral/somatic oximeter. In the event of cerebral desaturation, several interventions are possible for clinicians to correct a decrease in rSO2 values. These interventions target the optimization of those mechanisms that influence cerebral blood supply, inadequate oxygen content, and unmet cerebral metabolic demand.
