Autonomic Reflexes During Intra-arterial Chemotherapy for Retinoblastoma

June 25, 2020 updated by: Mariana Fontes Lima Neville, Federal University of São Paulo

Cardiorespiratory Autonomic Reflexes During Superselective Ophthalmic Artery Chemotherapy for Retinoblastoma in Children: a Prospective Observational Study.

Prospective observational study in patients undergoing intra-arterial ophthalmic artery chemotherapy for the treatment of retinoblastoma. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the incidence of cardiorespiratory autonomic reflexes in these patients and to investigate the association between autonomic reflexes and perioperative clinical characteristics.
