Figure Lengend Snippet: Patient enrolment flowchart. Between June 2020 and December 2022, 132 patients met the inclusion criteria. The head mount for NIRS did not fit well on 21 of these patients, and another patient could not remain still. Twelve more patients were excluded because they spent less than 48 h in the ICU. Finally, 98 patients were included in Analysis 1. In Analysis 2, 25 survivors were excluded because the probe slipped during mobilization, and two survivors were excluded because their mobilization was discontinued for reasons such as hypotension. One non-survivor was excluded because the probe slipped during mobilization. Thus, Analysis 2 included 60 survivors and 10 non-survivors. ICU intensive care unit, NIRS near-infrared spectroscopy
Article Snippet: The rSO 2 was continuously measured using a wearable brain NIRS device (Brain Activity Monitor Hb133, Astem, Kanagawa, Japan) with two measurement channels having peak wavelengths of 770 ± 10 and 830 ± 10 nm, respectively.
