Objectives:To examine the effects of either regional (RA) or general (GA) anaesthesia upon parameters of cerebral metabolism (near infrared spectroscopy, continuous jugular venous oximetry) during carotid endarterectomy.Design:Prospective, non-randomised, observational study.Materials:Sixty-five consecutive patients (33 RA; 32 GA) undergoing carotid endarterectomy.Methods:(i) Near infrared spectroscopy: measurement of concentrations of cerebral oxyhaemoglobin (HbO2), deoxyhaemoglobin (HHb) and oxidised cytochrome oxidase (caa3). (ii) Continuous jugular venous oximetry: O2 saturation of jugular venous blood (SJvO2). (iii) Stump pressure in internal carotid artery.Results:A reduction in SJvO2 (RA: 13% (95% CI-3 to 29%) GA: 9% (95% CI-2 to 20%...
