Prefrontal brain oximetry in pediatric LRTIs: new Scientific Reports study using our NIRSBOX tissue oximeter.
A new peer-reviewed paper in Nature Portfolio’s Scientific Reports shows that time-domain NIRS (TD-NIRS) with NIRSBOX can detect prefrontal cortex tissue oxygenation differences in children hospitalized with lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) compared with age- and sex-matched controls. In multivariate analysis, cerebral StO₂ emerged as an independent predictor of LRTI status, underscoring the added value
