Evolution of Muscular Oxygenation during a Walking Test in Preterm Children

Objective: To explore measures of peripheral muscular oxygenation, coupled to gait characteristics, between preterm and full-term children during a 6-minute walking test (6MWT). Study design: Prepubescent children performed a 6MWT. During the test, …

Cerebral oxygen supply during hypotension in near-term lambs: A near-infrared spectroscopy study

Sufficient O2-supply to the brain is necessary for an adequate cerebral energy metabolism, function and growth. To elucidate the relation between changes in, respectively, mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) and cerebral O2-supply and changes in the …

Brain cell function during hypoxemia in near-term lambs: A near-infrared spectroscopy study

Background: Sufficient O2 supply to the brain is necessary for adequate cerebral energy metabolism, function and growth. Objectives: To elucidate the relation between changes in cerebral arterial O2 content and cerebral O2 supply and changes in the …
