Internal Carotid Artery Blood Flow in Infants With Prone Position

• Conditions: Cerebral Lesion

• Registration Number: NCT05391282
• Lead Sponsor: Seoul National University Hospital

Brief Summary

Little is known about how implementation of prone position contributes to general anesthesia-induced decrease in cerebral blood flow in infants. The investigators investigated this question in participants undergoing untethering, hypothesizing that cardiorespiratory changes during this procedure would reduce cerebral perfusion.
