Abstrakt: Purpose: Continuous cerebrovascular reactivity monitoring in both neurocritical and intra-operative care has gained extensive interest in recent years, as it has documented associations with long-term outcomes (in neurocritical care populations) and cognitive outcomes (in operative cohorts). This has sparked further interest into the exploration and evaluation of methods to achieve an optimal cerebrovascular reactivity measure, where the individual patient is exposed to the lowest insult burden of impaired cerebrovascular reactivity. Recent literature has documented, in neural injury populations, the presence of a potential optimal sedation level in neurocritical care, based on the relationship between cerebrovascular reactivity and quantitative depth of sedation (using bispectral index (BIS)) – termed BISopt. The presence of this measure outside of neural injury patients has yet to be proven. Methods: We explore the relationship between BIS and continuous cerebrovascular reactivity in two cohorts: (A) healthy population undergoing elective spinal surgery under general anesthesia, and (B) healthy volunteer cohort of awake controls. Results: We demonstrate the presence of BISopt in the general anesthesia population (96% of patients), and its absence in awake controls, providing preliminary validation of its existence outside of neural injury populations. Furthermore, we found BIS to be sufficiently separate from overall systemic blood pressure, this indicates that they impact different pathophysiological phenomena to mediate cerebrovascular reactivity. Conclusions: Findings here carry implications for the adaptation of the individualized physiologic BISopt concept to non-neural injury populations, both within critical care and the operative theater. However, this work is currently exploratory, and future work is required. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
