Study Description

Brief Summary

Noninvasive measurement of cerebral tissue oxygen saturation levels by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is clinical routine in perioperative medicine. One of the main technical challenges of NIRS measurements is to eliminate the influence of signals of the skin and skull. A new device (RheoPatch, Luciole Medical AG, Zurich) has been developed by a company that also developed an intracranial NIRS probe, which allowed measurements directly in the brain and thus improved algorithms for elimination of the extracranial signals. The investigators aim to determine baseline values and performance of the new device (RheoPatch) compared with a more established NIRS device (NIRO-200NX, Hamamatsu Phototonics, Hamamatsu City, Japan)

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Cerebral oximetry using Rheopatch
  • Device: Cerebral oximetry using NIRO-200NX

Detailed Description

Primary objective is to compare the RheoPatch NIRS device with the NIRO-200NX NIRS device in volunteers at rest in supine position. As secondary objectives, repeatability of the measurements will be tested with optode reapplications. With measurements in Trendelenburg position, the investigators evaluate the influence of body (head) position on the NIRS signals.

Primary outcome are the baseline values of cerebral oxygenation levels measured by RheoPatch (SbtO2 (%)) and NIRO-200NX (Tissue oxygenation index: TOI (%)).

Secondary endpoints are the repeatability of the measurements with sensor reapplications (coefficient of repeatability, 5 repeats with each device) and changes of the measurements of cerebral oxygenation saturation level in the Trendelenburg position.

Measurements of baseline cerebral oxygenation values are obtained in supine position with 10 measurements, alternating between devices. Combined with 5 min measurement phase for equilibration and power adjustment, this will require 33 minutes per participant.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Cerebral oxygen saturation level [One day]

    Primary endpoint is the cerebral oxygen saturation level measured by RheoPatch (SbtO2 (%)) and NIRO-200NX (Tissue oxygenation index: TOI (%)). This is the value used for clinical decision making in the daily routine when NIRS measurement devices are used in perioperative medicine or intensive care applications and therefore the most relevant value.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Changes of the measurements of cerebral oxygenation saturation level (SbtO2 (%) and TOI (%)) [One day]

    SbtO2 and TOI changes are measured

  2. nTHI_NIRO [One day]

    Normalized tissue hemoglobin index: nTHI (absolute value in arbitrary unit)

  3. ΔO2Hb_NIRO [One day]

    Oxygenated hemoglobin change: ΔO2Hb (μmol/L)

  4. ΔHHb_NIRO [One day]

    Deoxygenated hemoglobin change: ΔHHb (μmol/L)

  5. ΔcHb_NIRO [One day]

    Total hemoglobin change: ΔcHb (μmol/L)

  6. aH2O_RP [One day]

    Absolute concentration of brain tissue water: aH2O (mmol/L)

  7. aHbDeoxy_RP [One day]

    Absolute concentration of deoxygenated hemoglobin: aHbDeoxy (μmol/L)

  8. aHbOxy_RP [One day]

    Absolute concentration of oxygenated hemoglobin: aHbOxy (μmol/L)

  9. aHbTotal_RP [One day]

    Absolute concentration of total hemoglobin: aHbTotal (μmol/L)

  10. ΔO2Hb_RP [One day]

    Oxygenated hemoglobin change: ΔO2Hb (μmol/L)

  11. ΔHHb_RP [One day]

    Deoxygenated hemoglobin change: ΔHHb (μmol/L)

  12. ΔcHb_RP [One day]

    Total hemoglobin change: ΔcHb (μmol/L)
