title: [Impact of xenon anesthesia on cerebral oxygenation and metabolism in neurosurgical patients].
abstract: In recent years the background for xenon anesthesia implementation in neurosurgery has been created. A variety of researches have been conducted though very few of them concerned xenon effect upon cerebral metabolism. We assessed cerebral oxygenation and cerebral metabolism during propofol anesthesia followed by xenon closed circuit anesthesia in neurosurgical patients. Xenon inhalation was marked by higher jugular vein saturation, oxygen content and glucose level and lower arterio-venous difference. We conclude that compared to propofol xenon improves cerebral oxygenation and decreases cerebral metabolism in neurosurgical patients.
