This NIH grant funds a study to investigate how anesthesia affects cerebral hemodynamics and metabolism in infants, aiming to identify biomarkers for adverse outcomes and improve pediatric anesthesia safety.
Description
The research aims to use neuroimaging to understand the hemodynamic responses to anesthesia and sedation in pediatric patients, focusing on cerebral blood flow and metabolism coupling during anesthesia in infants, including a randomized controlled trial comparing anesthetics.
