Abstract

Adenosine induced cardiac arrest (AiCA) is one of the methods used to facilitate microsurgical aneurysm clipping by providing more visibility and less pressure in the aneurysmal sac and neighboring vessels. We report the use of laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) during AiCA to monitor the changes in pulsation and perfusion on the cortical surface during adenosine induced cardiac arrest for aneurysm clipping surgery. Application of this technology for perfusion monitoring may improve workflow and surgical guidance and provide valuable feedback continuously throughout the procedure. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT0502840.
