Preoperative, Intraoperative and Postoperative Predictors of Post-clamping Neurologic Deficits During Carotid Endarterectomy With Regional Anesthesia
Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Procedure
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY
Patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy may suffer from neurologic deficits (ND) during the carotid cross-clamping due to cerebral hypoperfusion. An associated risk of postoperative stroke incidence is also well established. The aim of this study is to evaluate the predictive factors associated with ND during CEA performed with RA. The perioperative implications of the ND were also evaluated.

Treatments
Neurologic deficit
All consecutive patients from a tertiary referral center who underwent CEA for carotid artery stenosis who presented alterations in the neurologic examination after ICA clamping during CEA area selected
control
The control patients are submitted to the same procedure but with no neurologic alterations, are consecutively selected. a 1 to 1 ratio is used
