Microcirculatory tissue perfusion during general anaesthesia and noncardiac surgery: An observational study using incident dark field imaging with automated video analysis.
Abstract
Handheld vital microscopy allows direct observation of red blood cells within the sublingual microcirculation. Automated analysis allows quantifying microcirculatory tissue perfusion variables – including tissue red blood cell perfusion (tRBCp), a functional variable integrating microcirculatory convection and diffusion capacities.
