Article Description

Regional oxygen saturation (rSO 2 ) is a sensitive marker of cerebral hypoperfusion during liver transplantation. However, bilirubin absorbs near-infrared light, resulting in falsely low rSO 2 values. We sought to determine whether rSO 2 values vary in response to bilirubin concentrations during liver transplantation and to assess whether rSO 2 changes were associated with factors reflecting cerebral oxygen delivery in patients with hyperbilirubinemia.
