Abstract
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an invasive technique that is used for patients that have experienced heart or lung failure. Due to the complex nature of this treatment, neurological injuries such as hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) or stroke can occur. Conventional neuroimaging is risky for this patient population and only provides a snapshot in time, so continuous non-invasive bedside neuromonitoring. In this study we plan on monitoring cerebral blood flow using diffuse correlation spectroscopy and neural activity with electroencephalography. Correlating blood flow with neural activity will provide insight into the neurovascular coupling between neurologically injured versus normal patients on ECMO.
