Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To assess the feasibility of a new brain tissue probe for multi-parameter neuromonitoring (NeMo Probe) and the accuracy of measurement values.

To demonstrate the ability of the NeMo probe to detect changes in cerebral hemodynamics and oxygenation during cerebrovascular events monitored with established methods including brain tissue oxygenation tension and microdialysis

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

NeMoProbe

The NeMo System is used for intracranial pressure (ICP) and brain temperature monitoring, as well as the determination of the brain tissue oxygenation saturation (SbtO2) and cerebral blood flow. The sensors for NIRS are implemented into a conventional brain tissue probe for ICP monitoring (NeMo Probe).
