Summary

This study watched 15 children between 6 and 36 months old during open-chest heart surgery. Researchers placed sticky sensors on the forehead to measure brain oxygen levels and brain waves. They wanted to see how these two measurements relate to each other during anesthesia. No new treatment was tested; the goal was simply to learn more about how the brain behaves in young children during this type of surgery.
