Study of the: Effect of Head Rotation in Prone Position on Regional Cerebral Oxygen Saturation. (NIRS)

November 13, 2013 updated by: Johnny Andersen, Glostrup University Hospital, Copenhagen

Observation Study of the: Effect of Head Rotation in Prone Position on Regional Cerebral Oxygen Saturation (rSO2) in Anesthetized Patients.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether head rotation in prone positon affects regional cerebral oxygenation (rSO2)in anesthetized patients undergoing lower back surgery.
