nirs The cerebral oxymetry saturation was monitored continuously, using a non-invasive method. The cerebral saturation was monitored intraoperatively with near infrared spectroscopy (INVOS 4100; Somanetics Inc, Troy, MI). Data acquired from the device were automatically and continuously recorded in 10-second intervals throughout the anaesthesia. A lead for the cerebral saturation monitoring was placed on degreased skin on the patient's forehead, on the right side, some 1 cm over the eyebrow. The baseline value was determined before induction of anaesthesia. The following criteria were accepted as significant reduction of the cerebral oxygenation (saturation) value: reduction of the cerebral oxymetry by over 25% in relation to the baseline; the absolute value of cerebral oxymetry below 50%. |

cognitive function Upon the day preceding the actual surgery, and again at 5 days after the surgery, the Mini Mental State Examination test was completed, with a view to assessing the chang-es in the patients' cognitive function. The difference between score in Mini Mental State Examination higher than 2 points defined a diagnosis of cognitive dysfunction. |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- cerebral saturation [every 5 minutes throughout the surgery]
decreases in cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) during the surgery
Secondary Outcome Measures
- the Mini Mental State Examination test [Baseline, 4 day after surgery]
to assessing the changes in the patients' cognitive function
