Abstract: A cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) cerebral monitoring device including a measurement probe having one or more optical emitters, and one or more optical detectors, and including an optical instrument having an optical source, and an optical detector. Also included is a controller configured to control the optical instrument to emit multi-spectral light through the one or more optical emitters to illuminate a tissue, control the optical detector to detect multi-spectral light emitted from the illuminated tissue, compare the emitted multi-spectral light to the detected multi-spectral light, compute a plurality of cerebral tissue parameters based on the comparison, determine CPR procedures based on the plurality of cerebral tissue parameters, and control a user output device to instruct a user to perform the CPR procedures, and/or control an automated CPR device to perform the CPR procedures.

Abstract: A cerebral monitoring device for determining failure of a shunt used to treat pediatric hydrocephalus. The cerebral monitoring device including a controller configured to control an optical instrument to emit multi-spectral light to illuminate a cranial tissue of the patient, and control an optical detector to detect multi-spectral light emitted from the illuminated cranial tissue of the patient. The controller also configured to compare the emitted multi-spectral light to the detected multi-spectral light, compute cerebral blood flow (CBF) data based on the comparison, compute a pulsatility index of the CBF data, compute a pulsatility index of blood pressure of the patient, compute intracranial pressure (ICP) based on the pulsatility index of the CBF data and the pulsatility index of the blood pressure, and determine shunt failure based on blood oxygen saturation of the patient and the ICP of the patient.
