Esophageal saturation during antegrade cerebral perfusion: a preliminary report using visible light spectroscopy.
Paediatr Anaesth. 2006; (11): 1133-7
Visible light spectroscopy (VLS) is newer technology that measures real-time tissue oxygenation. It has been validated in detecting mucosal ischemia in adults. During complex neonatal heart surgery, antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP) maintains cerebral saturation. Whether ACP maintains peripheral tissue perfusion in humans is not known.
