Intraoperative neurological pupil index and postoperative delirium and neurologic adverse events after cardiac surgery: an observational study. Sci Rep 2023; 13:13838.

Abstract
Neurological pupil index (NPi) calculated by automated pupillometry predicts clinical outcomes in critically ill patients. However, there are few data on intraoperative NPi and postoperative outcome after cardiac surgery. We evaluated the relationships between intraoperative NPi and clinical outcomes, such as delirium, in cardiac surgery patients. NPi was measured at baseline, after anesthesia induction, at 30 min intervals after initiation of cardiopulmonary bypass or anastomosis of coronary artery bypass graft, and at skin closure. Abnormal NPi was defined as one or more measurements of NPi < 3.0 during surgery. The worst intraoperative NPi was recorded, then multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between abnormal NPi and postoperative delirium following cardiac surgery. Among 123 included patients, postoperative delirium developed in 19.5% (24/123) of patients. Intraoperative abnormal NPi was significantly associated with postoperative delirium (odds ratio 6.078; 95% confidence interval 1.845-20.025; P = 0.003) after adjustment for Society of Thoracic Surgeons Predicted Risk of Mortality score, coronary artery disease, and use of calcium channel blockers. In conclusion, abnormal intraoperative NPi independently predicted postoperative delirium following cardiac surgery. Intraoperative application of pupillometry may have prognostic value for development of postoperative delirium, thereby enabling close surveillance and early intervention in high-risk patients.Registry number: ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04136210).

The pupil constriction to light is associated with cognitive measures in middle-aged and older adults. Aging Clin Exp Res 2022; 34:1655-1662. [PMID: 35267180 DOI: 10.1007/s40520-022-02097-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Accepted: 02/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/01/2022]
Abstract
AIMS The evidence relating the pupil light reflex (PLR) and cognition have been inconsistent. In this cross-sectional study, we evaluated the association between the PLR and cognition in community-dwelling middle-aged and older individuals. METHODS Pupil reactivity was recorded in a subgroup of 403 participants (mean age 60.7 years, 57.3% females) in an epidemiologic study of aging. Ten pupil parameters were calculated to describe pupil constriction to light stimuli. A principal component analysis (PCA) score was used to calculate an overall performance over four cognitive testings. Linear regression was used to assess the association between pupil parameters and PCA scores, adjusting for age, sex, education, medications, health-related quality of life questionnaire, and systemic and ocular comorbidities. RESULTS The PCA scores decreased by 0.039 [95% CI (- 0.050, - 0.028)] per year increase in age and were lower in males than females by 0.76 [95% CI (- 0.96, - 0.55)] (p < 0.001). Pupil constriction amplitude in millimeters and the duration from stimulus onset to maximal constriction velocity were significantly associated with cognition after adjusting for (1) age and sex and (2) age, sex, and multiple covariates (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS In this study, we provided moderate evidence suggesting the association between PLR and neuropsychological cognitive measures. The findings suggest the potential of pupil reactivity to serve as a biomarker of brain aging and warrant further longitudinal study to assess if changes in the PLR can predict cognitive decline over time.
