Measuring Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter to Predict Neurological Issues in Carotid Surgery

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to evaluate how changes in the Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter (ONSD) during Carotid Endarterectomy (CEA) can help predict neurological complications in patients post-surgery. It focuses on elderly patients with carotid artery stenosis, who are at risk for ischemic strokes. By monitoring ONSD alongside other standard perioperative parameters, the study seeks to improve early detection of cerebral hypoperfusion and ischemia during the surgical procedure. The findings could enhance patient safety and outcomes by identifying those at higher risk for neurological morbidities.

Why it matters

Inclusion Criteria:

* Male and female patients between the ages of 50 and 80, who are planned for elective CEA under general anesthesia, who come in a spontaneously breathing, conscious and cooperative state.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients who are under 50 years of age, over 80 years of age, have neurological findings caused by reasons other than carotid lesion, and are intubated.
