Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in CBF that occurs during RI, as measured by diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) with a sampling frequency of 5 Hz [Baseline]

  2. Reports of any of the following: shortness of breath, chest pain, fatigue, or hypoxia [Baseline]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in MFV as measured by transcranial doppler (TCD), during RI [Baseline]

  2. Change in mean arterial pressure (MAP,) during RI [Baseline]

  3. Change in end-tidal carbon dioxide (CO2), during RI [Baseline]

  4. Time to maximum CBF effect after the introduction of RI [Baseline]

  5. Change in National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) (admission vs discharge) [Baseline]
