Clinical Trial: Comparison of Cerebral Oximetry and Neurological Status Testing in the Awake Patient in the Detection of Cerebral Ischemia During Carotid Endarterectomy

U.S., March 21 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07485933) titled 'Comparison of Cerebral Oximetry and Neurological Status Testing in the Awake Patient in the Detection of Cerebral Ischemia During Carotid Endarterectomy' on March 06.

Brief Summary: This randomized controlled study compares two methods of intraoperative cerebral ischemia monitoring during carotid endarterectomy performed under regional anesthesia: neurological testing in the awake patient and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). The study aims to determine whether NIRS is equivalent to awake neurological testing in detecting cerebral ischemia during carotid artery clamping and in guiding the use of an intraluminal shunt.
