TL;DR: Concerns are raised about the validity of cerebral rSo2 data in adults obtained by the INVOS 3100 system after six of 18 of the dead subjects had values above the lowest values found in the healthy adults.

TL;DR: Fiberoptic transnasal intubation is considered to be a useful alternative to direct laryngoscopic tracheal intubiation in patients undergoing elective surgical procedures on the cervical spine to avoid potential injury to the cervical spinal cord.

TL;DR: The reviewed findings impressively demonstrate that central nervous system function modifies the rhythm of the heart and vice versa, suggesting that HRV could be a useful indicator of central-autonomic integration and that 0.1 Hz oscillations play a major role in physical and mental health via optimizing energy supply.

TL;DR: The anesthesia multimodal index of consciousness was developed using a data-driven approach, which maps standard monitoring and electroencephalographic parameters into an output indicator that separates different levels of anesthesia from awake to electroencephalogram-based burst suppression.

TL;DR: Monitoring of regional cerebral oxygen saturation showed small increases in r.
