Studies from Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital Have Provided New Data on Aortic Dissection (Quantitative Electroencephalography Monitoring In Type a Aortic Dissection Surgery: a Clinical Case Review and Prospective Applications).

A recent study conducted at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital in Jiangsu, China, focused on the use of quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) for monitoring cerebral function in patients undergoing Type A aortic dissection (TAAD) surgery. The research highlighted the importance of assessing perioperative cerebral function to improve patient outcomes. While QEEG shows promise in monitoring brain function in TAAD patients, further research and technological advancements are needed to fully explore its potential applications. The study emphasizes the need for a multimodal approach to perioperative monitoring, including tools like near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and transcranial Doppler (TCD) in addition to QEEG.
